Créa Créa - Prince and Princess
The creative dustpan set from Pylones looks so sweet, that you want to pack them up in the showcase rather than cleaning up your house using these. The beautiful lady broom in her most elegant dress, sweeps gracefully towards her groom. Household work is made so easy through the light-heartening, durable and adorable couple of all times. There is also a heart-shaped magnet on the back for easy storage. There are good choices for this one, decide if you want to give it to your baby girl to play with it or set it behind the glass pane or actually use this adorable dustpan to do a filthy job.

Stop
This chunky doorstop is designed in the classic super hero comic book style and works hard day and night to keep your entrances wide open and your home free from slamming doors. It utilises the unique big grip footprint to resist any door, no matter how heavy. And just in case your door happens to be a literate one, it doubles up as a massive 'stop' sign. So there's no mistaking its purpose.

Price: £10.00
