Rockett St George



Life - Vintaged Sign

 Out of all the interiors shops out there, this one is my absolute favourite - and there are quite a few pieces either bought from here, or 'inspired by' the site in my cottage.

This eclectic site is full of wonderful things to adorn your walls, including original handcrafted one-off wooden pieces like this one (pictured) 'Life is a series of moments called Now' - which has a wonderful, antique feel, and a message that manages to be feel-good without being sickeningly sweet! I'm thinking of buying one for a friend's wedding this year - just need to decide on which message to go for.

The site is like an Aladdin's cave, and it's easy to waste hours browsing through the timeless prints, word art, wall stickers (a look the site has been rocking before they became popular last year) and even quirky ceramic tiles.

There's plenty for the rest of your home too, from witty teatowels, to tableware that's sure to be a conversation-starter, to vintage-style bathroom accessories and toiletries. I noticed the other day that they've recently started selling the most realistic-looking range of faux flowers, with beautiful cherry blossom, peonies, hydrangeas, and Equadorian Roses. 

In the vintage section there's a great selection of design-classics on offer. I'm dying to order a couple of Eames Dowel chairs from the vintage section, which come in gorgeous 70s colourways - they'd be the perfect fit against a traditional Victorian wooden table in my kitchen - might need to save up though, as I'll need 6-8...
