When it comes to moving into your first home it’s tough to know where to start with the essential home products that you need to complete your living space. It can take a little work to get your home exactly the way you want it – from finding the best furniture and kitchen accessories to bedding sets and bathroom must-haves. We’re sharing a list of key home products to help get you started – not only do these items make life easier, but they also bring joy to everyday living.
Armchair and footstool
An accent chair allows you to balance your living room furniture. It provides extra seating and offers a place to create a cosy corner that’s perfect for reading a book and relaxing. This beautiful Witham Armchair and matching footstool make an excellent choice, bringing calm duck egg hues to the living room, that pairs perfectly with the neutral taupe hessian webbing and washed oak wooden frame. It’ll certainly bring balance and restore a sense of tranquillity to the living space.
Table Lamp
Every living space needs atmospheric lighting to complement its interiors as nightfall draws in. A table lamp on your sideboard, bookshelf or media unit can elevate any space, adding the perfect ambient lighting for reading a book or just simply creating a cosy place to nestle down. We’ve chosen this beautiful Langham Table Lamp which is made from Terminalia wood that gives a shabby chic feel and is completed with a 100% linen grey shade. It could also be used as a bedside table lamp too.
Mirror
A mirror is a great way to freshen any living room as it helps bounce natural light around. This Langham Round Mirror combines a classic look with timeless style, offering modern elegance in any setting. Made from Paulownia wood, its natural aesthetic complements many interior styles whilst bringing light and space into the home.
Cushions & throws
Cushions and throw pillows are an excellent way to layer material and texture into your home, which in turn offers a sense of richness and fullness. During the autumn and winter months throws become our go to for comfort and warmth, whilst during spring and summer they allow us to add subtle hints of colour without being too overpowering. A simple linen blend cushion, like this Dragonfly Embroidered Cushion, makes for a lovely statement piece, whilst this beautiful Bees Wool Knitted Throw adds richness.
Artwork
Colour is a key to making the house a home. It brings life, personality, and joy. Adding artwork to the walls is a great way to incorporate colour and add effortless style to the home. If you love florals, then we recommend this beautiful Archive Sunflower Print from Sophie – the first flower she ever drew and what sparked the start of Sophie Allport. It boasts a beautiful watercolour style that adds warmth and natural beauty to the room.
Faux Flowers & Vase
A great home essential to complete your living space is a beautiful vase filled with your favourite flowers. It’s an excellent way to bring the outdoors into the home, adding greenery, and creating a beautiful focal display. We love this Distressed Bottle Vase that boasts rustic charm and has a timeless feel. Simply pair with your favourite faux peonies, parrot tulips and long-leaf eucalyptus for an everlasting floral feature.
