House & Garden's Ruth Sleightholme rounds up the most beautiful things to shop this month, from stylish pendants to the very best new rugs. Whether you're looking for fun table lamps or a floral wallpaper, a scroll through our gallery will offer inspiration in abundance.
A page that brings together modern tastes and past influences. The ‘Rose’ wallpaper borrowed from an 18th century Swedish design, the ‘Finkley’ lantern taking inspiration from an early 20th century Arts and Crafts piece and the ‘Spherical Bed’ designed by Kaare Klint in 1938 – revisit ideas that stand the test of time and create a new context for them.
Far from being monotonous, this group has a whimsical humour to it. It’s always delightful and inspiring to see people decorating their homes with unusual objects. They reflect the owner's artistic interests and invite us to imagine the story behind them.
When aiming to create something distinctive, you don't necessarily have to go big. Rather, try finding objects with details that connect to one another, such as a headboard topped with a wooden ball, a knotted hook with yellow ball ends, whose shapes reflect the pea-shaped salt and paper shakers and the bas-relief wall tiles.
