Wedding Season!
















Ok, so you bought the dress (made sure it wasn't white, or clashed with the bridesmaids/mother of the bride/mother of the groom), you found a great pair of wedges so you wouldn't sink into the grass during all those long photo sessions. You had the big hat vs pretty fascinator debate. But what are you going to buy the bride and groom as a wedding gift? Do not fear! Ella Doran is here! Placemats are perfect! A set of glasses is great! Beautiful bowls! Magnificent mugs! AND we gift wrap too! Call us or pop in store - 020 7613 0782, 46 Cheshire St, London E2 6EH

Friday Featured - Friday Fave!
















Sorry for the delay in getting the Friday Featured to you this week (or last week), we are blaming the excellent (in the most sarcastic term of the word) internet connection and its superior ability of disappearing when you need it most.
Anyway we wanted to let you know that our friends at mydeco have posted a lovely article about our Grand Designs win on their blog, click here for the full story.

Not one but TWO!














Today we have been grinning like Cheshire cats (how apt!) as last night at the Grand Designs Awards we won not one but two awards! We had been nominated for the Best Wallpaper category for our 'Geo' wallpaper, we were so happy to win this category and then to our amazement we won the Evening Standard Product of the Year Award. And so today's Friday Featured is our brand new, shiny and very heavy award trophies. We would like to thank the judges, especially Barbara Chandler who said such wonderful things in her presentation speech. We are very proud! Have a fun weekend!

Friday Featured






































This Friday we got a delivery of eco - conscious products that make great gifts. The first is a silver birch tree which you can unpackage and plant to offset your carbon footprint. The second is a bees wax candle, once you have burned the wax use the terracotta pot the candle was in to sew the seeds provided. Choose from a range of colourful flowering seeds and give something back to those hardworking bees. Enjoy the Bank Holiday!
