So at the moment I have the pleasure of working at the Ideal Home offices part time - very exciting - and it is fantastic to be surrounded by the constant buzz of up and coming trends and be able to witness new products as soon as they become available - dream! And seeing as Spring is fast approaching - I'll ignore the hail and snow storm earlier today - the trend that seems to be taking over the interiors world is a botanical-based one. This suggests 'flowers' to me, and I am not normally a floral fanatic; I can appreciate a good flower but I don't think I could tell you many names..and floral themes can easily bore me. There I said it. However, there are some great new products within this botanical trend that I have already fallen in love with and must buy immediately!
For example, I think these oven gloves and matching tea towel from Marks and Spencer are gorgeous, and being a huge fan of the colour green I love these unusual shades being used together and the bold leaf prints. Well done Marks n' Sparks!
