Top 10 Home Buys
Just moved in to your new pad? Get your home kitted out in style with 10 affordable buys that will make you feel at home
Whether you’ve just got the keys for a new place or need to restock a few everyday essentials, our new ANYDAY brand is made for you. With prices from just £3 for a mug, you can get everything you need for a lot less. There are plenty of basics to boost your space – from white tableware to sheets and towels, but there’s also ample opportunity for you to start stamping your personality on your home too, with pops of colour and pattern. The brand has something for every room in the house, so with this much to choose from we thought we’d simplify things a little and curate the ten absolutely essential ANYDAY buys…
A new home always means lots of cups of tea (or coffee), whether that’s for the unpackers or the visitors, the removal team or simply to savour the moment you’ve finally got the place to yourself. Our ANYDAY kettle is sleek and stylish, with a fabulous price tag. Team with our colourful ceramic canisters and give your kitchen counter instant style. Make sure it’s one of the very first things you unpack.

Who says everyday needs to be boring? Pep up your morning shower with some bold towels – even at ANYDAY prices they are still a quality buy that will wash and wash. Mix prints if you dare, playing with scale and colour. New towels are an easy style win, especially if you’ve moved into an all-white bathroom that feels a little cold and clinical.

Can’t wait to add colour to your home? Choosing paint colours is very exciting – if not a little daunting. Why not start with your bed linen and try a new combination – like on-trend mustard yellow and blush pink? Think of the pale pink as a ‘new neutral’, using where you’d normally plump for white, adding accents of yellow. With ANYDAY bed linen starting from £3.50 for a pillowcase, now’s the time to colour mix with confidence.

A new home and the chance to have things just as you please. The kitchen might be a fixed space but a few well-chosen accessories will have a huge impact – and yes, even the bin can be glam. Layer up the colour at every opportunity from plates and bowls to tea towels and storage to create a space that feels like home.
A new home – and perhaps your first dining table – the perfect opportunity to style place settings to rival any gastropub. Whether you’re dining alone or entertaining friends, make mealtimes super-stylish with a few affordable purchases. Start with colourful base – a 12-piece set has all you need – using as a backdrop for more individual pieces. Try mixing with classic white dinner plates, linen napkins and cut crystal tumblers.
Who says practical needs to be dull? Our braided placemats come in yellow, pink, grey, mustard and blue and look great at any mealtime – from a kick-start breakfast to a relaxed dinner with friends. And if you need to replace kitchen essentials – like your salt and pepper mills – then ANYDAY has got you covered too.

For a quick style update, use lighting to transform a room. Look for pieces that are multi-purpose; a desk lamp can double up on a bedside table, while a floor lamp can fill an empty corner by day and add warmth by night. Bring in an accent colour – with our ANYDAY lighting selection starting from £10, it’s an easy style win.

Check out ANYDAY’s range of shelving units, which are made for #shelfie moments. Our arched design in black comes in two heights. Lightweight yet sturdy, it’s easy to move with you when you do – or simply reposition around your home when you fancy a change. Style with ANYDAY vases, which are perfect for adding pockets of interest to shelves of books.

If you need a splash of colour or to disguise a sofa or chair you’ve inherited with your rental, this beautiful, soft-touch throw with an on-trend grid design and fringed edge is a must. It’s a moment of joy… and priced at just £15, you need to be quick to catch this one (although more stock is coming soon).

Our ANYDAY mugs start from just £2, with a range of designs made for colour mixing and lots of great value sets of 4. Of course, we think they are too lovely to be hidden away in a cupboard, so stack on open shelves or hang from a peg rail. Choose from our ANYDAY palette of mustard, steel, coral and lapis blue or keep it fresh and simple in white. Basics have never looked so good.
Think bright, think bold, think ‘perk-you-up’ cuppas… our ANYDAY mugs start from just £2, with plain and ribbed designs that are made for colour mixing.

Basics have never looked so good.
You can never have enough cushions, so our ANYDAY Floral Crop design is a vibrant and summery addition to any home. The pattern has been cropped tight to give an abstract look (and if you fancy a quick style change, then the reverse is plain blue). It looks great on our ANYDAY Clapton or Sweep sofas, both of which come in room-brightening shades of blue.
