If you only treat your home to one practical thing this week we recommend it be one of these new spring buys…
1. Super-smart pinboards
Wave goodbye to notes haphazardly pinned to a sad looking, overloaded noticeboard. These beauties have just landed in Oliver Bonas to help us stay organised in style this season. Available in a choice of three shapes, the elegant gold frames and fabric-covered boards ensure they'll look equally as good in a living room as they would in a home office or kitchen.

2. Embroidered basket
It's fair to say we're OB-SESSED with woven baskets right now – from handbags to home storage the basket is king this summer! This adorable embroidered basket is the perfect place to stylishly hide away unsightly cables, chargers and extension leads.
Buy now: Cables Embroidered Hand Woven Basket, £45, Amara
3. Storage trunks
These smart storage trunks are a longstanding best-seller for Cox & Cox. Easy to see why, they provide super smart storage for any room.
The sophisticated Olive green is the brand new shade for this season, joining existing White, Blush, Putty and Eau De Nil colourways. Instead of the usual silver detailing on the new trunks the finish is a complimentary copper finish.

More natural textures are adding style to bathrooms. This generous laundry basket is crafted from jute, with the addition of quirky wooden handles. The stenciled 'Laundry' slogan ensures dirty clothes on the bathroom floor are a thing of the past.|

5. Hallway storage
Free banisters from being overloaded with discarded layers. Keep coats and beautiful woven shoppers easily accessible by the front door with a little help from stylish industrial-style hooks.
