Pinned: The Homewares We’re Eyeing This Month

Spend enough time looking at beautiful homes for work and your own wishlist starts to get a little out of hand. This spring, the Sitchu team’s saved tabs are full of colourful rugs, sculptural chairs and tableware that’s practically begging for a spring soiree. Some of us are settling into new homes; others have sold furniture before sorting its replacement. All of us have a few covetable finds to share. From vintage treasures to champagne flutes, here’s what we’re buying, eyeing and making room for at home right now.

My doom scrolling has well and truly shifted to vintage, and I’m spending hours on online estate auctions, I have a deep love for Lawsons. For vintage-style pieces without the bidding, I recently came across Plume Homewares, an Australian small business founded by best friends. Their first collections (mostly now sold out) were sourced from Provence and the French Riviera, and they’ve now launched Keepsake, their first range of original designs with a vintage feel: think walnut finishes and brushed silverware. I love this Cove Shell Dish, cast from solid brass and great for holding jewellery.

Rugs are my other current fixation. I visited Miss Amara’s recent pop-up in Sydney and met Co-Founder and Creative Director Alexandra Weller, who took me through the range. I instantly fell for their shag and carved wool pieces, my favourite’s were the Yosefa Natural Cream Rectangular Shag Rug and the Estella Pink Geometric Wool Shag Rug. And if a new rug is going anywhere near my toddler or a glass of red, it’s best I have the Leif x Armadillo Barefoot Rug Cleaner on hand in the laundry cupboard!

I’m also on a mission to bring more colour into our home, starting with the Halo Marble Tray from Black Blaze. Perfect on the mantelpiece holding keepsakes, alongside The Bijou candlesticks from Sydney-based Merci Maison.

I’m still on the hunt for a cool occasional chair, and the CIV Chair from Trit House has caught my eye. It’s sculptural and has a modern take on the mid-century pieces I love, and I’ve got my eye on the Colcha Calfskin colour with the Espresso Oak frame.

We’re moving into our new home this week, so I have my eye on lots of gorgeous pieces, but I want to take my time decorating. First up is the couch. This Cloud Cosy Couch from Banana Home lives up to its name. It’s deep, down-filled and made for sinking into.

In the bathroom, I’m adding this Ziggy Stump in French Blue from Fenton & Fenton for a playful pop of colour, and pairing it with a set of Sheet Society’s Tommy Cotton Towels.

As the weather warms up, I’m swapping my heavy doona for this Bamboo Coverlet in Chocolate from Sleep Ins. It’s a lighter layer that still makes the bed look effortlessly put together.

Lastly, with housewarming celebrations planned, this set of Pomponette Flutes from Maison Balzac is a must. I’ve never owned a nice set of champagne glasses, so I’m treating myself. A new home deserves a little fizz!

Front and centre on my coffee table is our very own Sitchu coffee table book, ROAM. Our team worked so hard on this for over a year, so finally having a copy to proudly display at home feels extra special. It also makes a pretty great Christmas gift for your travel-loving bestie… just saying.

This spring, I’m looking to give our bedroom a little overhaul, and first on the list is the bed. I’ve got my eye on the new Époque collection from Bone Made x BEDSaHEAD, which feels like a very good excuse to go all in on the project. I’m particularly drawn to the softer, timeless shapes and love the idea of building the rest of the room around one beautiful piece. Each bedhead is made to order in Sydney by BEDSaHEAD, using premium upholstery fabrics from leading international textile houses.

I’m also ready to get back into cooking and entertaining, and Le Creuset’s new Bleu Riviera collection has me very inspired. There’s something about that classic blue-and-white palette that makes you want to cook something beautiful, invite everyone over and linger around the table for hours.

With spring cleaning very much on the agenda after a long, cold winter and with a household of boys and a dog creating a constant trail of mess, the new MOVA V70 Ultra Complete is firmly in my sights. Anything that promises to make keeping on top of it all a little easier has my attention.

With the warmer weather over the last few weeks, I dusted off my old beach umbrella and realised it’s definitely time for an upgrade. I love this classic style from Business & Pleasure Co.

In the same spirit, I’m also looking to refresh my beach towel collection, and this playful Ciao Ciao Towel from Avalon has caught my eye. Its bold, graphic design is a playful nod to Op Art, while the double-sided 100% premium cotton is woven in Portugal.

Country Road’s latest homewares drop really caught me by surprise. I just can’t decide between the six-piece stainless steel oyster tray and the 12-piece ceramic oyster platter. Both feel like a great excuse to have the girls round for snacks and sips this spring. And to pair with it, who could say no to a dirty martini in one of these olive-hued martini glasses topped with stainless steel picks (for olives, of course). They’re all pretty affordable too, so I might have to grab extras for gifting.

While we’re talking entertaining, these sculptural handmade Fish Design vases have major dinner party appeal. They’re just the right amount of freaky and cute, and come in some very cool colourways. I can’t stop thinking about them.

I’m also deeply focused on refurnishing my living area at the moment. After deciding on a whim to sell a few things on Marketplace before having any of the replacements sorted, it’s looking very bare. A colourful new wool rug in either pink or chartreuse should fix that pretty quickly. I’d also love to bring this new occasion chair from Ellison Studios into the mix. I just love the contrast of the high gloss and plush upholstery, and the swivel, tub shape is just divine.

And in the bedroom, I’m desperate for a seasonal shake-up starting with this whimsical ruffled bedspread in bluebell.

Now that you’ve uncovered our current homeware obsessions, check out these design-led washable rugs for a delicious dash of underfoot comfort. Or turn your attention to the bedroom, with some chic new sheets from these Australian bedding brands.
