| Many of the dots and spots designs are heavily influenced by the wonderful shabby chic items that adorn
dots and spots HQ. Some of our favourite design houses include Greengate, Cath Kidston and Emma Bridgewater. Other influences
are Matisse, 'Country Living' magazine and junk shops tucked away down little side streets. Take a look around dots and spots HQ and you, too, can create
that shabby chic look in your home. |

Fabrics, furniture and nik-naks are assembled together to create the shabby chic home - creating a house that is
stylish rather than fashionable, with the style reflecting the quality rather than newness.
It is a style that develops a bright, light and airy feel, warm and welcoming with a hint of times gone by when
quality mattered more and natural materials and fabrics dominated. |

| Spots - both small and giant Polka dots - feature prominently and you can see why
dots and spots loves the style so much, but also why the dots and spots range fits so
well in the shabby chic home. There is a vintage quality to shabby chic items -
despite their sometimes distressed or second hand nature - there is a permanence to them,
a sense, in this throw away era, that these items have a value and beauty that make them
worth saving, and not only saving, but celebrating. |
