Anthropologie Natural World Dessert Plates
Lou Rota's distinctive natural world decoupage has seen her featured in these pages previoulsy but her collaboration with Anthropologie deserves another mention.
The range consists of three designs on vintage-inspired dessert plates which come in turquoise, green and coral. The plates have scalloped edges and gold leaf detail and come adorned with Lou's trademark bugs and reptiles.
Beautiful as decorative objects in their own right they would look great hung on the wall, but far more fun to serve dinner on them and let your guests discover the detail as they clear their plates.
The plates are bone china and measure 20cm diameter
They cost £16 each and you can buy them from the Anthropologie website

Love Hate teapot by Welovekaoru
Looking for a teapot with a bit more attitude than the usual designs? Check out the Love Hate teapot from Welovekarou.
The design is inspired by the 1955 film The Night of the Hunter and the Love/Hate tattoos across character Harry Powell's knuckles. One side of the teapot shows Love, illustrated by a traditional tattoo style heart and doves. The other side of course shows hate – portrayed by a dagger going through a heart. Something to ponder over a pot of tea!
The teapot costs £60 while you can get the same design on a cup and saucer for £28 for a cup and saucer.
