Mis-matched crockery and cutlery is all well and good in theory, but in practice it's much harder to get right. Because the shades of blue are wrong or the patterns somehow just don't look right together. The overall look is great, but you have to by a whole lot of stuff to get there and well, that's just a lot of effort isn't it?
So I was very happy to stumble in this electic cutlery set from The Contemporary Home. Look! It's all mis-matched! But it still works like magic. You get four of each piece, all different and all very very pretty. It'll cost you £29.99, but it'll save you so much time. Which can now be spent eating lunch with your new cutlery.
Love it! Finding individual items of cutlery or crockery that are lovely-looking too is nigh on impossible so this is a fab solution! Is there a crockery/china version? Would be even better if they were second-hand...
ReplyDeleteLovely cutlery and gorgeous designs.
ReplyDeleteI've got four mismatched long spoons with colourful handles that I love, but after lots of use, the pattern is wearing off - am looking to replace them, but it's harder than I thought to find nice replacements.
I would never have thought of mismatched cutlery, but it works really well!
ReplyDeleteI think the same would work with Emma Bridgewater's stuff as well - you can buy those individually for that reason! So you can have stars and polka dots and hearts all in the same colours.
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love them! for someone who has OCD when it comes to matching crockery, towels and cutlery I am gobsmacked that I am going to put these on my Xmas list :-)
ReplyDeleteLove the airplane toddler fork...my boy is now going to eat ALL his food!
Christmas?! Already!? Wash your mouth out young lady! There's a lot more sunshine yet!
ReplyDeleteYou'll find it a lot cheaper elsewhere.
ReplyDeleteYou can buy them in the shop Joy, Im getting them on Saturday after spotting them couple of weeks ago love em!!!
