Now look at this. I love it when the High Street gets it right and the new collection from Jasper Conran for Debenhams is great. Having said yesterday I wasn’t sure about storage jars with labels, I do like these ones. They’re glass for starters so you can see what’s going on and at £7 each you can’t argue with the price.

The range also includes chopping boards and a bread board as well as that wire egg basket. This board set is clearly labelled for hygiene purposes and a storage box is no bad idea as I can’t have been the first person to jump out of my skin when a large pile of stacked boards slid down the wall and crashed onto the worktop and floor … or is that just me?

The wooden and the wire pieces are in store now. The glass jars will arrive in July.
