Stylish Storage That Works for You
Keeping your living room organised is key to creating a welcoming environment, especially when you’ve got guests staying over. Thoughtfully chosen storage pieces can help hide away clutter while also adding to the overall look of the room. Shackletons has plenty of options that combine practicality and design flair:

Accessories to Complete the Look
Once you’ve chosen your furniture, it’s time to think about the details. Accessories bring warmth and character, helping to tie the room together and reflect your personal style. For 2025, the focus is on layering textures and using natural materials to create a homely feel. Here are a few ideas to inspire you:
- Throws and Blankets: drape cosy throws over the back of your sofa or fold them neatly into a basket for a lived-in, welcoming touch.
- Rugs: A rug can anchor your seating area while adding softness underfoot. Look for warm tones and textured finishes to bring a sense of comfort.
- Cushions: mix cushions in different fabrics, patterns, and sizes to create an inviting arrangement on your sofa or accent chairs.
- Wall Art: framed prints, family photos, or even an oversized mirror can make the room feel more complete.
- Lighting: combine floor lamps, table lamps, and candles to create a layered, cosy atmosphere that’s perfect for evenings at home.
