Metal Design Furniture visits Grand Designs Live
This weekend, Metal Design Furniture went on an outing to the ExCel centre in London to have a look around the Grand Designs Live exhibition. Packed to the roof with fantastic ideas and innovations for your kitchen, garden, living spaces and bedrooms, the show was a must for anyone with an interest in making their homes as beautiful and functional as possible.
We were especially taken with these handy outdoor tables, which had spaces that could be used as either a cooler for wine or a BBQ pit. One could quite easily imagine passing the long summer nights sitting around one of those with friends and family, a tipple in one hand and a hot dog in the other. We also enjoyed sitting in some amazing chairs that hung high in the air and had a gentle swinging action, reminiscent of a hammock, but with a little more structural integrity… and better cushions!
Over in the kitchen section, we were blown away by the amazing Vitamix blender, which can make everything from soup to ice cream within seconds. A very charismatic man explained how it worked, chucking in ingredients and producing restaurant quality dishes while we watched. After tasting his amazing soup, which went from ingredients to the hot finished product in the flash of a, well, blender, it took quite a lot of convincing to get Mrs Metal Design Furniture to leave without one tucked into her handbag!
We then ventured into the design section where we cooed over affordable art, relaxed on crazily comfortable chaise longues and were dazzled by pet jellyfish, if you can believe that. This is definitely a treat for anyone who loves amazing home living… and we know all Metal Design Furniture fans are in that group. See you there next year?

Now if that doesn’t put a spring in your step, we’re not sure what will!

Decorate our glass and metal tables for Easter
Easter is just around the corner… which surely must mean spring is on the way too? Even if the icy winds are still blowing by the weekend, you can invite the sunny spirit of spring into your home. Easter means that the kids and the grandkids are off school, the daffodils are coming up – and everyone is in the mood for eating!
If you’ve got family coming over for a big Easter feast, there are lots of ways you can make your table look even more inviting than it already will. Young children will love table decorations made from cotton wool to look like tiny sheep, or a scene featuring fluffy toy chicks.
If you’re feeling more sophisticated, why not make a centrepiece from a selection of bright spring flowers? There are so many gorgeous colours that start to make an appearance at this time of year. A vibrant bunch of flowers will add excitement to any table.
And of course, everyone, young and old, loves chocolate. Perhaps you could paint some hard boiled eggs and mix them up with some chocolate for a semi-edible table display. That’s bound to make you popular with the whole family!
However you decorate your Easter feast, it will look all the more impressive on one of our beautiful glass or metal tables. Our Castrum clear table comes in a range of sizes, so can suit a family of any number, and starts at £390. Or if you fancy an outdoor feast, how about our gorgeous Oliver garden table, (right) which starts at just £175?
Whichever table you like the look of, there’s something for you at Metal Design Furniture.
