Little spoons make great gifts
Karen asked some customers what they would include in the top 10, and Brad has said that he loves these little spoons. We have a great selection of lovely spoons, but these seem to be a favourite. Great for salt, sugar, or even mustard or condiments, these make great little gifts, especially when paired with a little bowl.

The fabulous Sharky Brush for the beach goer
We love a good quality brush here at Verde, and this is one of our favourites. Our new 'sharky' brush clips onto your beach bag, and when you're ready to get back into the car or shack, use to brush off the sand off your feet and legs. So practical and gorgeous. Made in Germany from FSC beech wood and light horse hair.

Travel Picnic Table
This is a fabulous little portable picnic table, perfect for picnicking in style. The legs fold up and out, and the table safely holds a wine bottle and four wine glasses. Great to use with our stemmed acrylic glasses. It comes with a cheese and pate knife. Great to take to the beach or gardens or wherever you want to drink and dine alfresco.
Another lovely customer, Ness, suggested we include our lovely natural handmade soap balls in our top 10. These are a favourite of ours and would always be in our top 10 for customers. They smell divine, are all natural, made from olive oil and first grade essential oils, they last a long time, especially if you keep them dry when not in use. They make a great little gift, perfect paired with a face washer or hand towel.

Beautiful oak framed seaside prints
We have these beautiful seaside prints, finished in a textured oil paint style, and framed in oak, they are the complement to any space. The impressionist influence of the print evokes a sense of timeless style, while the subject itself suggests the calming feeling of being near the coast. Perfect for featuring in a living space or bedroom. We have three to choose from and they look fabulous all hung in a line together either vertically or horizontally!
