Jurassic World inspired homewares that are roaringly good fun
Clever girl
Jurassic World is the movie event of the summer. Yes, the dinosaurs are back and, like all blockbusters, the theme has crept into fashions and homewares up and down the country - for all ages, not just dino-obsessed cubs.
It's over 20 years since the dinosaurs at the world's most ridiculous theme park roared into our lives, and the island of Isla Nublar now features a fully functioning dinosaur experience.
Excited? We are, and so are the shops.
If you don't want to go full-on Jurassic at home, there are several ways to introduce a fun dino theme in different rooms. Mugs, plates and bowls are the obvious choices for the kitchen, and colourful graphic prints will look right at home on your living room wall.
The kids won't want to be left out, and there are loads of inexpensive funishings to play with. Look for dino-print bedding, bookends and cushions at large supermarkets - they are really embracing the trend and you won't have to fork out too much for the products.
Here are a few ideas for celebrating the Jurassic franchise at home....
