Beware the moon jam jars wallpaper

Jam-jars-wallpaper-4467-p
Here's some paper bound to introduce some sixties fun into your home, Jam Jars wallpaper from Beware the Moon.

Okay, jam jars aren't normally known for their high-tech looks, but here the shape of the jar has been abstracted, giving it a Pop look which outshines its humble inspiration. The surface of the paper reflects lights, walls and other features of the room to produce a striking look that's luckily more space age/less the tin foil episode of Spaced!

A roll measures 56cm x 10m and costs £76.50.

Traditional tattoo kitchen roll

Traditional-tattoo-kitchen-roll-3255-p

When it comes to your kitchen roll, do you find the plain white or perhaps the floral designs just don't do it for you? Maybe you should try this traditional tattoo kitchen roll instead. 

Its length of 20 metres is covered with traditional tattoo designs, from bleeding hearts to sailors and roses and is probably far too good looking to soak up any cookery spills. If you're really keen on the look, you could always pair it up with this dish cloth for a tattoo-tastic kitchen. 

It's not only prettier but also is pricier than your average kitchen roll at £5.50.
