Another site that helps small designers and makers get their wares out into the world, while retaining their autonomy. You can search by creator, style or even material. The following picture shows Sophia Dining Set.
This is a kind of virtual department store bringing in the kind of things you’d pick up in a museum, only you don’t need to leave your sofa.
Rigby and Mac have three bricks and mortar stores in London, next to each other but with their own distinct look and feel. The online store cleverly replicates this, so you can browse by theme, but you can also just have a good old hunt around the treats, from homewares, jewellery and kids toys to decorations for the tree.
They want brightly colored plastic tat, things that eat batteries and make headache-inducing loud noises. You just want them extremely busy, quietly by themselves while you simply relax. Cottontails has a huge array of toys which might just provide a happy middle ground. Toys here are built to last and have a wonderful retro feeling, taking you back to your own childhood.
