The little shop by the sea

I took a day out of the city this month to visit the seaside town of Swanage in Dorset, and the latest addition to its high street, the home and gift store Winston and Potter. This shop is a marvel; with scarves and handbags through to gorgeous crockery and furniture, if you’re short on ideas for Christmas then you are in luck. The best bit? You can get your paws on the new Christmas stock from the comfort of your own sofa, at www.winstonandpotter.co.uk with free delivery if you spend over £50.

My personal favourite products are the soy candles, which can have up to twice as long a burn time as other candles.They burn evenly so you avoid that well in the middle of your candle, and they have real green credentials. And… they smell completely de-lish.

I've posted a few snaps below of the best of the best bits of Winston and Potter - let me know if of you buy any of my favourites!
