Hm table runner

Bargain hunters rejoice. H&M is now selling online and they're also doing homewares. Worth a look for cheap, unusual basics, you may like to check out their vintage-styled range.

Much in the style of products made by companies like Random Retail among many others, the range uses old-fashioned typography printed onto washed and faded linen to give them a vintage look. The H&M range includes an apron, tea towel, napkins and cushion covers, as well as the table runner pictured which looks like it has been made from an old seed sack. 

The table runner costs £12.99 while prices start at £2.99 for the tea towel and napkins.

Nilsson napkin

With the UK finally getting some good weather at the weekend, picnic season seems to be upon us once again. Add some retro flair to your picnic with these Daily Menu napkins. 

The paper napkins use a design by Marianne Nilsson from the 1950s and illustrate possible menus for various meals in the day. You may remember the homeware range we featured a little while back, featuring Nilsson's Herring design. These napkins are equally Scandinavian in its choice of flavours, with boiled egg and cheese offered as one of the breakfast options. You may not agree with her suggestions but the simple line drawings, combined with grey and bright lime and yellow colours, make the napkins look a pretty tasty option. 

A pack of 20 costs £3.50.
