Budgeting after overspending at Christmas?! But still love shopping? This month is all about savvy shopping. Thanks to fabulous new Flying Tiger cushions, shelving units and enamel bins we can get our shopping fix, update our homes and stay within a 'January appropriate' budget!
Not doing dry January? The Asda G & Tea set that's perfect for gin lovers (and the tea pot has already sold out online)
January can feel a little glum – the sparkly trees are down, the beige food is all gone and there's an overwhelming urge to give up booze (each to their own we say!). Why is is always about less?! We say adding any cheery accessory to our homes is worthwhile – especially ones that are decorative, useful and totally affordable!
New in this month at Flying Tiger
