 Anyone visiting the Republic of Ireland will be struck by the prevalence of the colour green, adorning everything from post boxes to aeroplanes and it will be much in evidence everywhere else on 17th March when St. Patrick’s Day is celebrated.

 Green is also this season’s must-have colour in furnishings and what better choice to give your dolls’ house a new look for spring.  There are lots of exciting greens to be found in our collection of accessories and other vibrant colours too to suit every taste, add a dash of gold to really complement the green!   So sport your four leaf clover, pour yourself a glass of Guinness and browse our fantastic collection for a little inspiration in finding your new look.
