Please bug me! April 15, 2011

I know we’re not meant to like bugs, and I’ll be the first to swipe at a wasp after my sandwiches at a picnic, but these insect-inspired designs by UK based Warbeck & Cox are the bee’s knees! I stumbled across them while browsing the excellent Poppytalk monthly online street market. The Grasshopper cushion above costs £40.

How about offering your dinner guests these beetle napkins. £20 for a set of four. They don’t just go mad for bugs, either. I rather fancy this Key mug (£10) and the fab irons teatowel (£8.50)!

Who said domesticity had to be boring??

  1. I used to have a scarf with spiders on it – I enjoyed seeing the reaction of people when they saw the pattern.
    I like the cushion, not sure about the napkins – but love that tea towel.
