Your February living notes.
GOING GREEN
Pantone’s Colour of the Year (Greenery for those who’ve yet to hear) didn’t immediately win us over, but Urbanara’s collection has changed our thinking. And in fact, we do love the varying tones green can bring into the home, with enough imagination. Get ready to embrace nature.

ON YER BIKE
Our cycling addiction can be awkward when storing options are limited to a small shed out back or the entrance hall, leaving the household tripping over pedals. Cue the Rene? bicycle storage hook from Zilio A&C. Sleek and oh-so practical, from €148 at zilioaldo.it.
POSITIVE NOTES
Could the message behind this card be any sweeter? Forget the Valentines and randomly tell a friend you’re thinking of them instead. ban.do postcard set, €14 at myshiningarmour.com.
GRAIN OF TRUTH
Erica Sheehan’s award-winning Homespun Quinoa Crunch, €5.99, is gluten- and wheat-free and a great source of fibre and nutrients. More importantly, it tastes amazing sprinkled over yoghurt and berries or your favourite smoothie bowl. And as of this month, you’ll find it in select SuperValu stores as well as Avoca, Donnybrook Fair, Cavistons and health food stores. Our favourite? Pecan & Cranberry (though Goji Berry, Cashew & Coconut comes in at a close second). Hurray for healthy eating made easy.
