Home and Hearth- We say BYE to the Beast from the East!

March 06, 2018

What miserable weather we have all been having recently! Whether it was wind, rain or snow- the UK has certainly had a tough time of it.  

Were you out, enjoying a day of sledging on the drifts?

Or did you take the day to relax, preferring to stay warm inside and catch up on some quality TV? 

I think we are all happy to say goodbye to the Beast from the East!

However it does seem that more wind and rain is set to continue across the UK during this week. 

Here at Sheila Maid® we have a selection of products that really make life easier.

Whether it is fireside buckets, boot scrapers to door steps - we have it covered! 

Jutland Fireside Dustpan and Brush

Check out our Jutland Fireside Dustpan and Brush- inspired by Scandinavian design, the mix of materials and colours is a lovely update to metal or plastic alternatives. Combining matt black Steel and FSC Beech, the deep pan will leave the fireplace looking spotless.

The matching long handled brush features Nylon bristles, therefore is designed for sweeping cold ash only.

 Did you have the fire on during the cold weather? Having a fireside bucket helps keep fireplace surrounds clean and helps prevent little pieces being tracked through the house! 

Fireside Bucket in Coffee Bean

 Is there anything better than the cosy-ness that a real fire brings? Whether it is an outdoor camp fire or a home log burner - the atmosphere they can create is really special.

However at Sheila Maid®, we believe safety should always come first.

Stovies Stove, Burner and Log gloves

These gorgeous yet ever practical gloves will give protection to your hands when chopping wood, collecting logs or when you are refuelling your fire or wood burner!

When it is this cold outside, you really want to make sure that your heat is circulating around your home.

Having doors open so that heat is not trapped in one room alone is a good idea. We have the perfect item for this problem! 

Rustic Chunky Door Stop - Reclaimed Timber

Our rustic chunky door stop is the ultimate door stop, it has the presence, the looks and it does the job! A practical, pleasing door stop.

Fitted with a large rustic metal ring; this helps to move it around. Suitable for indoor and outdoor use. A great gift!

One downside to the wetter weather is trying to manoveur taking off long boots. We hate seeing wet footprints and snow dragged through the house! We might have one item that can make the world of difference...

Metal Boot Jack

After long walks customers can be assured even the tightest of wellies can be removed with the Farringdon Boot Jack. Industrial in style, the design features two bobbles at one end and cross wires which provide grip to the underside of the boot.

Crafted in Steel with a matt lacquer seal, the metallic grey design reminds us of stag beetle boot jacks yet we've given ours a simplified twist.

Dimensions: H6.5 x W35 x D14.5cm. Crafted in Steel. Welding marks will be visible due to the nature of the material and manufacture

Say goodbye to mess being dragged through the house - sadly we think this little guy might have something to say about that!  

With the way the weather has been- we are all firmly hanging onto our winter coats at Sheila Maid®.  They say Spring is around the corner.

This year the 1st day of Spring is set for the 20th March and we all can't wait to say Hello!
