Top 5 Home Must-Haves From Huis
We know first-hand that styling your home can feel like an impossible task; especially when you’re living on an island {those all but too real #islandproblems}.
Sourcing items online, without knowing the quality, material, true look or feel, can often leave you feeling totally overwhelmed or worse, broken-hearted when your purchase arrives totally different from how you expected {or dare we say it, damaged!}.
When we first heard about our friends at LUID opening a physical store, our home-maker hearts rejoiced! Now you can easily visit The Storefront to sit, touch, and try-before-you-buy from their collection of well-priced, high-quality home goods; all with the support of some expert designers in store!
This blogpost is written in partnership with our friends at HUIS The Storefront to share our Lustic Life top 5 things we love {that we know you’ll love too}. Whether you’re looking to finally “finish” your home, wanting to add in some high-quality items to your existing collection or shop for some truly beautiful gifts {hint hint} this one is for you!
Our Top 5 Faves For Your Home
1. Baskets
It might be a Lustic thing, but when it comes to baskets our mantra is you can never have enough. Baskets make the perfect and oh-so-functional styling tool for beach towels, laundry items, kids’ toys, and even plant pots {who knew!}.
But it can be a little daunting to get them to Cayman still in one piece. The Storefront has a great collection of sturdy and flexible baskets made from seagrass and cane. You can order waterproof liners through them should you wish to use them for plants.
Pricing starts at CI$122* for a set of two.
2. Throw Pillows
When it comes to adding a little luxury to your home, throw pillows are the jam. This simple addition can upgrade any couch or bed and elevate your entire home’s aesthetic without a huge investment.
What we love most about The Storefront’s collection is that they come in ready-made collections that you can easily mix-and-match to suit your existing home decor. Although it can be tempting to buy pillowcases online, we speak from past experience when we say stuffing them {in Cayman at least} is a whole other ball game and not to be taken lightly!
Instead, The Storefront pillows come beautifully stuffed with down making them soft enough to lounge on but sturdy enough to hold their shape {spoken like a true Goldie Locks}.
These soft-furnishing collections are always changing so Cayman homes don’t all have the exact same look, which we love. If they don’t have the style you’re after in-store, it’s easy for them to order in a set from the online store and their pricing online includes all duty and import fees. We love the braided fringe set and the tribal indigo print set.
Pricing starts at CI$102* for a set of two pillows.
3. Blankets & Throws
Finding a neutral, quality-made, natural blanket or throw, can be tricky. Especially if you’re trying to keep it simple {which is something we’re all about}. Luckily The Storefront has a great collection of elegant blankets that can act as a decorative throw, a luxe picnic blanket or dreamy bedtime blankie {cos who said you should outgrow that}.
The beauty of shopping here is the team at The Storefront will make sure all your items go together, so you can get a blanket, throw cushions and even a pouf that bring your space to life.
Prices start at CI$105* blankets made from cotton and wool.
4. Tableware
When it comes to tableware, we like to think more eclectic than the average and The Storefront really helps get you there. The variety of artisanal stoneware is something you have to go and feel and touch in-store to truly appreciate.
There are some fantastic pieces to add to your entertaining armor, like these stylish salt and pepper pots or the uber-luxe gold-laden salt and pepper grinders, as well as stone platters and beautiful serving cutlery.
For your everyday kitchenware, the artisanal-style plates, bowls, and mugs are perfect for adding some understated elegance to your dining table this festive season {and forever more} without the worry around actually using them.
Pricing starting as low as CI$12.50*
5. Poufs
If you’re tight on space or looking to have multi-functional/kid-friendly furniture, you should really consider buying a pouf. These seat-cum-footstools can be your secret weapon when hosting a dinner party or impromptu gathering and they don’t have to cost the earth.
We love The Storefront’s truly gorgeous Bohemian-inspired poufs like this Braided Fringe Cream Pouf as well as the Beach-chic inspired poufs like this Jute Pouf that will hold up to feet and kids for years to come!
Prices start at CI$152*
