We love this juicy watermelon candle for €3 from Penney’s.

Sure, you can’t go wrong with polka dots. Clothes, fabric, mugs, it’s all good. I love this indigo spotty mug from www.whitestuff.com

For €15, it’s all yours.

This is the Axis vase with ash base created by LSA International, stunning for contemporary floral arrangements. But if the olive green hue isn’t for you, it’s available in lots more colours from www.amara.com for €71.

We adore Irish made products on Wishlist. So we’re all excited about the new Field Apothecary range, made with up to 11 essential oils in Co Down. They retail at €35 each and have a 40-hour burn time.

Not just any sea salt, put this Dean & DeLuca salt in your kitchen and you’ll be playing with the big boys — fragrant Italian white truffles blended with sea salt.
