Wish list: Camper vans, funky cushions and a gold metallic jewellery tree

Esther N McCarthy dreams of buying a cool camper van — just for the bedroom, though.

With this price tag, it’s in the aspirational column, but wow, imagine how cool it would be to bed down in this every night.

Inspired by the iconic VW campervan, it’s got a built-in TV, sofa, desk and mini-fridge, so you’d really get use out of it from tot to teen... (to mother-of-three).

The exterior is made from fibreglass, in a glossy powder blue and white with chrome plated finishes and the interior is Palisander (Brazilian rosewood) veneer.

It can be yours for a mere €47,400 and do allow 14 weeks for delivery after you’ve won the Lotto.

Spotted online this week — the Kasa metal dome pendant light in black.

I just enjoy the look of it, two downward-curved shades nicely balanced by the top tiers, it would make a simple statement in a living room, right?
