As a first-time homeowner still recovering from the financial hit of buying a flat, I have become a master at faking my way to an expensive-looking home on a tight-budget. I've found one of the best tricks is picking up timeless home accessories that have a quiet luxury flair, which is something that H&M has mastered with its spring kitchen collection.
Home accessories are one of the best and most affordable ways to make your kitchen look more luxe than it is. I might be a long way off being able to afford a gorgeously veined Carrara marble kitchen worktop, but I can stretch to H&M's £13 green marbled spoon rest to add texture and sophistication to my laminate kitchen worktop.
I've rounded up 12 of the best new cooking and dining pieces at H&M right now that will not only make your kitchen look expensive, but feel expensive too. These elevated basics and little luxuries like the stoneware matcha set will help you fake it 'til you make it. And the best part? Nothing on this list will cost you more than £35!
You might not be able to afford the most expensive dining table, or new kitchen cabinets. But I've learnt that a beautiful tablecloth, a tea pot and some artisan-looking mugs are timeless staples that always make a kitchen look fancier than it actually is.
