GIVE YOUR HOME A BIT OF ZING!

As much as we love a chic, neutral colour scheme, sometimes it doesn’t hurt to add a flash of colour to give a room a whole new look…

DUNELM MILL GAS LIFT BAR STOOL, £39.99 (in red, green, purple, black, silver and white)
We’ve seen ultra-modern stools like this with a much higher price tag, so this one is well worth snapping up quickly.

MATALAN MOROCCAN-STYLE CARRY CUSHION, £14
The bright, vibrant colours of this large PVC floor cushion instantly made us feel all warm and summery – even when outside it’s far from that!

MORRISONS TALL SUNDAE GLASSES, £1 EACH; ICE CREAM SCOOPS, £1 EACH
You don’t have to be the queen of desserts next time you’re entertaining with these glasses. Just add scoops of different flavoured ice cream and you’ve got yourself a fun-looking pud, fast – and don’t forget the sprinkles!

ASDA FUCHSIA POPPY CUSHION, £8
At this price you can buy it, enjoy it, then stash it away at the end of summer until next year with feeling guilty.

IKEA HERRANG BLOCK CANDLE HOLDERS, £9.99 EACH (in blue, yellow and pink)
You could stick to all one colour, but for the best effect, mix ‘em up for a really stunning effect.

BHS PINK CAKE DOME, £18
We think the best bit about the dome on this stand – apart from keeping the bugs away, if it ever turns nice enough for tea in the garden – is that it might stop you picking off bits of the cake every time you pass it!

IKEA POPPTORP ARMCHAIR WITH CUSHION, £47 (in pink, green and white)
If it’s a bit too funky for indoors, then think about it as extra seating in the garden – just bring the cushion in and leave the chair outside when it starts drizzling.
