Butterfly bits and bobs at Rockett St George

Despite my fear of real-life butterflies (they're all fluttery and unpredictable and might fly into your MOUTH), I quite like the 2D kind.

Online boutique Rockett St George has a fab line in butterfly stuff that brings out all sorts of wantiness in me. My favourite is this Susanne Phillippson Butterfly Clock (was £220, now £165):

It turns a modern (and, quite frankly, dull) clock into something whimsical that makes me ooh and aah. And it's on sale.

I love the idea of little features making a big change, which these Butterfly Floral Wall Stickers do wonderfully (we're a big fan of Rockett St George wall stickers). I also love that they're only £14.95 for a pack of 20 - more than enough to jazz up a door or alcove.

I don't have a trivet, but it's a very good idea. Especially when they look like this:

This cast-iron Butterfly Trivet (£15.50) is perfect for serving dishes that have spent hours bubbling away on the stove, or for giving the impression that you regularly prepare said dishes. That's the power of a trivet.

  1. That trivet is stunning! But, if there was a pen lying about, I'm not sure i could resist making butterfly stencils on my kitchen counter.

    That would make my landlady maaaaaad.

  2. The trivet IS gorgeous. The clock is too, but I couldn't bear spending over £100 on a clock...

    I might have to get crafty and make my own version O.O

    Butterflies are wonderful and pretty. I'm wearing butterfly earrings as we speak. Hurray for butterflies!

  4. Butterflies are indeed all sorts of awesome. But not the live ones. Brr.
