1. mud australia – a MUST collection in anyone’s cupboard.

Check for your nearest stockist here.
2. I love this black and white porcelain tray set by Stepanka nyc, $140.
3. So Dutch! Tulip plates from Gleena Shop based in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. $55 each.
4. chopping boards from baileys home and garden in the UK, for around £28 each.
5. zaishu. it’s a chair, it’s a table, it’s super stylish. and it’s australian! what more can i say? you can read more about these here, and buy them here at le souk. I have particularly fallen in love with this australian bushland design, but all the designs are divine.
6. Brooklyn-based ceramicist alyssa ettinger’s knitware porcelain range is too gorgeous. a set of two demitasse cups are $50.

Phew! That’s alot of work. But alot of fun! Don’t forget to check out each of the stores because although I have only picked one item per boutique, I adore their ENTIRE collections and encourage you to go wander through them all. Imagine I have just created a virtual street for you and with shopping basket in hand, you can peruse each shop at your leisure! But I wouldn’t be too leisurely about it as I’ve noticed items are selling out fast so if you see something you like, hop to it.
I have more tabletop and homeware items on the ready for next week as well.
Tomorrow: Holiday gift ideas ‘for her’….
