The Beat That My Heart Skipped – A blog dedicated to daily design inspirations. By Rohini Wahi.

Hi all! Did you have a great bank holiday weekend? I did. I caught up on some much needed snoozing and eating!

I also finally watched the Lost finale – I have to say I only watched the series up to series two, but I love a good story and needed to know the end! So I watched a complete plot summary before hand and then the finale, and I must say it was truly beautiful : ) Has anyone else seen it?

I’m opening today with these adorable fabric fishes from French illustrator Flora Douville – they made me laugh and laugh and laugh! I love these little guys!

Did you ever see so many beautiful and abundant cushions in one place?! Yastik meaning cushion in Turkish – stocks an exquisite selection of cushions which are influenced by many cultures and styles.

Designed by Rifat Ozbek’s and inspired by his travels, the cushions patterns have sprung from Anatolian designs, Brazilian florals, Ottoman silks, African patterns, English interior stripes and vintage weaves, giving each cushion its own character and personality.

Goodmorning all, apologies for the issues yesterday, we’re back up and running now!

Today I have a number of treats for you… a really fun Day With our recent favourites, lovely tea-towel company To Dry For, a charming cafe in Hanover and a one-off movie review of swoon-worthy, brand sparkling new film Robin Hood from Lauren.

By the way, i’m really taken with ribbon designs right now, i love these unusual patterned textiles and accessories from Bijzonder Mooi…

I love the mixture of design and crafts from ex Habitat style co-ordinator and Wedgewood design director Nikki Jones’ homeware collection. The range is just so beautiful and unusual – it has a real high end Day Birger tone but still retains warmth of handmade items. This brand is one to watch, I can feel it in my design bones, can’t you?

Cheerful crochet from Wood and Wool…
