Tweet tweet…time for sun

It’s easy to forget the simple delights brought about by the sunshine, but as the Spring showers fade away and the sun sets in for summer (keep everything crossed), we can appreciate these once again! Lazy Sundays with the family, trips to the beach and perhaps even a cocktail or two…summer has to be the most relaxing season of all.

Hearing the birds sing whilst pottering in the garden and watching them flutter through clear blue skies has inspired us to look through some of our favourite on-trend bird home accessories and gifts.

At last you can dry the washing out in the fresh air and keep the radiators turned down! Be sure to keep the rain awaywith these cute birdy pegs, a steal at only £4.99. There’s no excuse for a full laundry basket, but we agree, ironing is a chore!

Perfect weather for socialising means extra company is always welcome. So invite all your friends and family into your beautiful home with this trendy canterbury doormat from Bombay Duck. Treat yourself with a gift for the home; it’s sure to encourage your guests to kick off their shoes upon arrival.

And if you’re planning on a day with the girls then afternoon tea isn’t complete without these fabulous set of 4 Birdy plates by Magpie. No arguments over the designs though (my favourite is the robin!) Cucumber sandwiches with the crusts cut off, homemade cupcakes and freshly squeezed fruit juices are calling. Hey, you could even feed those chirpy birds your crusts.

Whether you are going on a summers walk, down the beach or off a romantic picnic, don’t forget to pack that all important flask of tea…we know it’s a must, even in summer. Disaster Designs has the ideal solution with this beautiful In a Nutshell thermos flask, just perfect for a woodland walk or sunset down the beach.

After a hard day soaking up the sun, we think relaxing on the sofa with a glass of vino will be just what you need. Make sure your living room is plush with this stunning Birdcage oversized cushion from Heaven Sends. It’s just that…heaven

And finally…save up your pennies for plenty of ice-cream this summer. It will be so much easier to do with this cute ceramic money box from Rob Ryan.

We hope you’re as excited about the sunshine as we are. If you’d like some more inspiration on bird themed homeware and gifts then shop the trend from our Songbird Collection now >> http://ow.ly/kLwTH
