New York print by Ingela P Arrhenius

Clover coasters from Pryl design
These clover coasters from Pryl design are almost too eyecatching for resting your cup of tea on.
Designed by Julia Nielsen for the Swedish company, the classic four leaf clover is transformed into a psychedelic design which looks like it has been drawn from the late 1960s, rather than 2011. The clover design comes in three eye-popping colours, all printed onto triangular laminated birchwood – perfect for cheering up a dull table or desktop.
A set of three costs £12.

LP cushions by The Grateful Thread
As part of our ongoing list of things for the home that look like records, you may want to take a look at these LP cushions, made by the wonderfully named The Grateful Thread.
Each cushion is made from soft fleece in the shape and style of a vinyl LP. The fun is definitely in the details with these cushions. Embroidery is used to create the album title and artwork with, for example, the Sofa Chillin' version pictured resembling a Sun Record. That not to your taste? Take a look at the Rockabilly and Sweet Dreams designs which are also available.
The cushions cost £28 each.

Happy Camper plate by Jane Jenni
If you know someone who enjoys a spot of camping or just someone who is an all-round cheerful soul, Jane Jenni's Happy Camper plate could be the gift for them.
Reminiscent of a game of Catchphrase, the plate uses the word 'happy' alongside a brightly coloured image of a caravan to represent the phrase, 'Happy Camper'. The simple text, combined with the image, makes it evocative of a retro children's book illustration. The plate is melamine which makes it perfect for actually taking camping too.
The Happy Camper is just one in a whole series of designs executed in the same style around the same idea. So whether one of your family is a 'book worm' or simply you think they are the 'bees knees' or the 'cats meow', this could be the perfect present.
Each plate costs £7.99.
