I had to go to 3 Asdas to bag the best goodies in Stacey Solomon’s new range – the 5 bargains to nab & what to leave
STACEY Solomon fan’s have been anxiously awaiting the release of the TV presenter’s new homeware range since it was announced early last month.
With the weather cooling down many are excited to get their hands on the new homeware range which is timed perfectly with autumn.
A collection of 200 items has started to drop in Asda stores with price starting from just £1.
Stacey’s range covers items for the bathroom, bedroom, living room, dining room and kitchen.
Stacey said: “It was really important to me that every item is great quality at an affordable price.”
We’ve spoken to an interior designer who had first look at the new range and here’s what you need to nab and what to leave on the shelf.
Suellyn Reat founded Duck Lane Interior Design, which aims to make decorating your home affordable.
Suellyn had a look at Stacey’s new range and here’s what you need to grab.
She said: “Already this is a popular range. I had to go to three different stores just to get a proper look.”
WOVEN PUMPKINS
The interiors pro first had a look at the Natural Small Woven Pumpkins which are priced at £8.
She said: “I just love these natural woven pumpkins and think what a great little investment that could be reused over and over each year. A sustainable way to decorate your home for the autumn season.”
“These look so beautiful styled together on a dining table as part of a theme for a dinner party or why not even use them on a console table or coffee table. They have been beautiful made from wicker and create a lovely autumnal feel.”

PUMPKIN CUSHIONS
If you’re really in the festive mood Asda have also released the Green Pumpkin-Shaped cushions, these are going for £18.
Suellyn said: “The cushion’s from this range are particularly popular. You have these stunning green two textured cushions which I love as it adds textured layers to your bedding and then finished off with this cute little pumpkin cushion which is reversible like the bedding and features a big pumpkin followed by two smaller sides. The sides of the cushion have a piped edge which makes them look more expensive.”
BEDDING
Now onto more practical items Suellyn took a look at Stacey’s new bedding to see if it’s worth the price tag.
She said: “If you love a season change then this soft brushed 100% cotton bedding is for you. I love the fact that it’s reversible with a cute pumpkin design on one side and a timeless leaf pattern on the other side.”
“The quality is outstanding, and the price point is great. It is also made from 100% cotton which feels lovely on your skin as it is a natural material.”
KNIT THROW
Sulleyn said her favourite item in the collection so far was the Cable Knit Throw and it’s perfect if you’re thinking about adding warmth to your home ahead of winter.
This is priced at £40 and comes in a lovely neutral brown or earth green.
She said: “This must be one of my favourite items with so many uses. This gorgeous chunky knit throw could be styled at the bottom of a bed, over a sofa or my favourite option snuggled under with a delicious hot chocolate. This throw is a stunning addition to any home.”
CERAMIC PUMPKINS
However Suellyn wasn’t keen on one item in the range.
She said: “I wasn’t keen on the ceramic pumpkins as I feel like you can get them anywhere they aren’t unique and at £6 a pop I would rather get something different.”
So overall, it’s massive thumbs up from the interior design.
Suellyn said: “Well Done Stacey you absolutely nailed it. You not only gave us the cutest autumnal pieces that would make any home feel cosy and warm, but without the huge price tag.”
“I love the use of natural materials within the range. It was so refreshing hearing other customers looking at your range saying wow that’s lovely and reasonably priced too.”
