GIFTS Colour Themes

If your wedding colour theme and big day co-ordinating has got you hooked, you'll want Brabantia's colour matching service for your new kitchen.

Brabantia's Touch Bin is a classic choice for wedding wish lists, but it has just got a whole lot better. You can now choose from over 200 colours, personalised to match your kitchen. Whether you want a bold red to match a particular shade of paint finish, a subtle blue to co-ordinate with the new kitchen units, or your interior designer is suggesting a particular shade of verdigris - relax, Brabantia's got it. Professionally coated in the colour of your choice, you really can now get the ‘look’ you’ve seen in glossy interiors magazines and on television makeover shows.

This new personalisation service is available on the 45-litre sized bin through selected retailers and via the Brabantia web-store at brabantia.com. The cost will be approximately £275 (plus £8.50 delivery to UK mainland addresses), with delivery either to the retailer where the order was placed or to your home address.

“If you are spending a lot of money on a new kitchen, it’s the finishing touches that really make the difference, and we want to provide that level of individualisation. Whatever the colour scheme, we’ll aim to match it,” says David Slater, sales director of Brabantia UK.

For stockists go to brabantia.com or call 0845 602 4877.

GIFTS Let's Celebrate

Celebrations are a bit of theme with us so when we hear about a 200-year anniversary we have to say 'wow'.

Celebrating 200 years of pottery making, Denby has some birthday treats lined up. Perfect for gift lists, we love the new Natural Pearl tableware which has been launched to mark the anniversary. Modern and sophisticated, it has a lustrous, pearlescent finish with round, curvy shapes giving it a cool, organic feel. Great for formal and informal dining, it includes 19 pieces with an extra generous teapot and a tea saucer that fits both the small mug and teacup. The range also features extra large gourmet bowls - just right to impress your dinner guests.

True to Denby tradition, Natural Pearl is suitable for use in the dishwasher, oven, microwave and freezer with prices starting at £9.50 for a teacup, £8 for a saucer, £54 for a teapot and £13.50 for the wide rimmed dinner plate.

GIFTS Too Many Toasters

If you have too many toasters and plenty of pans, join UNICEF UK's Big Day List and help children and families around the world.

Why not cut the clutter and choose a wedding list that helps vulnerable children around the world? UNICEF's Big Day List is easy to set up online with a host of gifts to select. Just £14 can provide pencils for a whole school and £105 can provide a gardening kit for families to grow their food. For friends and family that want to pool their resources, £345 allows UNICEF to install a water pump, providing clean water for an entire village.

UNICEF guarantees that any gift chosen will be the actual item received by families and children most in need. And for each gift purchased, the couple receives an eGreeting or a greeting card with a photo and message.

To find out more or set up your own Big Day List, go to unicef.org.uk/bigdaylist.
