Well I’m kind of kidding, but I am a Cancerian, and have an early memory of being both fascinated and repelled by a very 70s skandi print crab money box I was given. So this crab collage of a coffee table kinda caught my fancy. And at least it makes a change from birds.

Actually on closer inspection maybe it’s a pink tray. Pity, because I could really go for a hot pink lacquer coffee table, as, I’m sure, could you. The picture is from the gallery on Lonny’s website. This American homes mag – of shelter magazine as they appear to call them – is great for inspiration, especially as you can read the whole mag online. The rooms are much more (over)’done’ than in comparable UK magazines but as long as you can accept you’re never going to have a Central Park-facing apartment of your own to decorate, it’s a great read. A few sample spreads below. Don’t get me started on owls…
