Asda’s spring home collection has just landed – with some amazing pieces for under £15
It may still be winter, but the new-season homeware collections are dropping in stores and online right now to brighten up our homes
We always love Asda's George Home because they do really good homeware. Not only is it always on-trend, it's great if you're on a budget.
We were lucky enough to see a preview of the new spring collection back in November, where we made mental wish-lists of the star buys to keep an eye out for. And now the long wait is finally over, because this week, the new season collections are finally available at George Home.

Here's our pick of the best buys from the new season's collection...
As soon as I saw this hero Globe light I immediately wanted to book an electrician to fit it. It's effortlessly chic, the exposed filament bulb continues to be a key trend for lighting in 2018. The bulb on this design is made all the more interesting thanks to the glass globe casing. The on-trend touch of brass helps to give it a really sophisticated feel.
I could hardly believe it was only £30 – that's excellent value for money. This style of light makes more of a statement if hung in multiple numbers in a row, say over a dining table or above a kitchen island, and that's totally achievable at this price.

The phrase 'live, laugh, love', although a fine sentiment, feels a bit overdone! Having said that, I'm the first to love a home filled with happy vibes. This new design is a fresh way to add the feel-good factor this season. The mix of metallic wording against navy, blush pink and earthy terracotta makes it easy to work into a number of the new season home decor trends.

Succulents aren't going anywhere, remaining the indoor plant of choice for this year. Not that they are particularly difficult to maintain, it's still nice if you can get realistic looking faux plants that require zero effort.
