HAPPY WALLS
We love these bold and contemporary art pieces by Canvas and Canvas. Each piece is hand painted and brought to life with its unique striking blend of colour. Every brush stoke is completely unique and perfectly affordably. What’s not to love? How perfect would these be for a wedding gift?
Little White Dish
There isn’t anything more wonderful than a great coffee cup, and a gorgeous quality bowl. It makes the contents taste somewhat more delicious!
Little White Dish pieces are all handmade from french porcelain and are quite soft in
detail and shape. Many of them feature text, which is a lovely way to
personalise gifts.
Create an enchanting room with softly lit tea lanterns…

five gifts from kate
If you’re starting to think about what to select for your gift registry, we have some exciting news… this February kate spade is launching five (yes five) gorgeous new collections!!! They are Illustrated, Bubbly, Sweet Pea, Chelsea Plaza and Grace Avenue and we absolutely love them!
Illustrated is inspired by the artful kate spade New York paper collections, with whimsical watercolors adorning tidbit plates, mugs a footed cake plate and a hors d’oeuvres tray. We think the brightly colored porcelain pieces would be perfect for a kitchen tea, or at a post wedding morning tea thankyou for your bridesmaids. Pictured left: Cocktails Anyone? Tidbit Plate 15cm.
Bubbly features spirited dots and delicate daisies on traditional stemware crystal shapes, with your choice of a pair of champagne saucers or pair of trumpet-shaped flutes, perfect for your wedding day toast.
Sweet Pea has a simple design of softly rounded curves. The modern crystal range offers both posy and hydrangea vases that work equally well in casual and formal settings.
Chelsea Plaza features confetti-inspired spots of varying scale to dress uphome décor pieces. The crystal range includes a large vase, bud vase and bowl each reflecting the classic elegance that is undeniably kate spade.
And finally, Grace Avenue features silver-plated picture frames, toasting flutes and an elegant desse, with a sweet pewter bow inspired by grosgrain ribbon adding a pretty feminine touch to the collection. We think the picture frame would make a perfect bedside keep sake with a special photo of you and your partner on your wedding day. Pictured left: Picture Frame 20 x 25cm, (also available in size 13 x 18cm)
If you just can’t wait to get your hands on them, the new kate spade giftware collections will be available in selected David Jones stores and from leading independent retailers in February. For stockist enquiries call 1300 852 022 or visit www.katespadechina.com.au
