What's Hot: June – Talking Tables UK Trade

What's Hot: June

Posted by on

The game plan… We’re ranked 6th but have home advantage so must be in with a shout of picking up the trophy. The Women’s Euros kicks off July 6 and you can get behind the team with our new Party Champions range. Pictured here is our merchandising manager Nimy’s daughter Scarlett dreaming of making it to Wembley.

Thinking of avoiding the stresses of cancelled flights and transport strikes by holidaying at home? Take some inspiration from one of our favourite instagrammers @homewithhelenandco who has created this beautiful haven with our rugs and fabric bunting. We love it.

We’re so over twisting candles, the TikTok craze of last year. But we love a spiral candle but which colours to choose - lavender and purple, turquoise and navy or spicy orange and pink? Decisions, decisions…

This World Rainforest Day we are reminded that trees are vital. The world’s most impressive multi-tasker; they give us oxygen, store carbon, filter the air, stabilise the soil and give life to the world's wildlife. The tagline for the day is ‘Because the world can’t wait’. And that’s why Talking Tables have held a Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) licence for 10 years.  The FSC promotes responsible management of the world’s forests and its certification system enables businesses and consumers to choose paper products made with materials from responsibly managed, renewable forests. Look out for our green tree logo for all of our FSC certified items. We’re also working with Ecologi who provide both companies and individuals with the opportunity to plant trees via projects involving local communities around the world – over 40 million so far. We’re offsetting all the paper used to make our paper napkins and games.

Let’s take it outside…. We couldn’t agree more with Prima’s al fresco dining advice (or their choice of Talking Tables’ Alice tablescape image): “Whether you’re hosting a garden party or afternoon tea, polish off your look with some smart finishing touches. Displaying singular stems in simple bud vases alongside larger floral bouquets will add interest and create a blossoming tablescape. Glass candlesticks paired with bright candles will keep the occasion aglow late into the evening.”
