The €23 H&M piece that your living room needs immediately

Cathy Donohue

Make your home a hygge hideaway for winter.

Whether you’re obsessed with interiors and are always looking for ‘bits’ to transform your home or you’ve recently fallen down the rabbit hole of Pinterest boards, it’s possible to make some noticeable changes to your living space without spending a huge amount.

H&M Home and Zara Home are both ideal for finding statement pieces on a budget although you will have to buy online with neither brand having a store presence in Ireland (note to the company bosses, please make that happen).

My current obsession is a candle tray and believe me when I say I didn’t know such a concept existed until I spotted it on social media.

Candles are a costly business, particularly in winter when all we want to do after a day spent battling wind and rain on the commute to and from work is curl up on the couch, watch Netflix and achieve ultimate cosy vibes.

T h u r s d a y Evening my darlings. Hope everyone is ok? This is my gorgeous new wooden board from the amazing @with_a_cherry_on_top_uk ! They make all sorts of amazing homewares – completely unique and bespoke! And they asked if they could make something for me! That was music to my ears because I’ve been searching high and low for a contemporary wooden tray/board with chrome handles and I haven’t found one anywhere…. they literally answered all my prayers with this! It’s stunning! I’m so so thrilled, and they are so lovely to deal with! Please check them out because there is nothing they can’t do! They can paint these boards to match your decor, they can make them any size you like and above all, you will not be disappointed! Thank you so much @with_a_cherry_on_top_uk I am in LOVE! Have a good one, folks ❤️ ————————————————————- #gifted #grateful #supportsmallbusiness #handmade #bespoke #unique #stylingtray #tray #candletray #woodentray #servingtray #woodenboardwithhandles #greytray #buylocal #candles #homeaccessories #gypsophilia #gyp #freshflowers #whiteflowers #amazoninfluencer #instahome #lavenderlane #homesweethome #interiors #homestyling #homeinterior #homedecor #kitchenstyling

Now it’s all about giving candles, of which we have plenty, a specific home because they need a tray all of their own.

Note the added advantage of how pretty said candle trays are.

I recently spotted this beauty from H&M, a piece from the Poppy Delevingne collection and it’s an absolute steal for €23.

The Round Mirrored Glass Tray is priced at €22.99 exactly but it looks a lot more expensive and is the perfect place to house your candle collection.

Now to add it to my long list of interior wants and needs…
