We are sold when it comes to anything wicker, seagrass, or jute, especially when it's a convenient 59 inches across. Pair with a generous amount of plants and you’ve got yourself a piece of 70s heaven. 

Carrying on with the Scandi style interiors, we’re absolutely loving this bamboo bathroom caddy. It’s an absolute steal too at just £30, and it's tall and slim so it's perfect for teeny bathrooms and lots of products.

This bed is giving us major New York City main character vibes. Plus it has storage drawers and these very cool bookshelves at the foot of the bed.

Aside from being a living room essential, a pouffe is a great way to sneak some extra storage into your set-up. Plus, we cannot get enough boucle...
