It's got some really lovely bits and pieces - Glasgow road signs, vintage map wall art, luggage cases, Shetland wool blankets, chandeliers, furniture as well as wee decorative pieces. One of my favourite finds was a glass pineapple that has a silver coating and now sits on my lounge room table. I didn't realise but they also have a shop through in Edinburgh and an online store. With fantastic customer service and great, unusual pieces, I'll definitely be popping in more often.

Anyway, needed a mother's day gift and I'm glad I went in. I was focussing on the unique candle scents, rhubarb and ginger or fig to name but a few, for the gift. These were so delicious I came away with one for mum and one for me. Other things that caught my eye were the range of blankets/throws and room diffusers. Staff here are extremely helpful and friendly (none of the pouncing/smothering approach some people go for) and a pleasure to do business with. If you need something lovely...time and tide. (Even if you are clumsy!)

They stock Scandi brands like Skandinavisk, Menu, Sagaform, Broste, Pappelina and lots more. They sell homeware, gifts and a lot of candles! The shop is very spacious and well laid out. If you have a craving for some nordic style beyond IKEA then this is the place for you.

Phoned customer services (Bilal)who stated it was an issue with paypal. Receipt issued with BT address stating delivery was free but on speaking to Bilal he stated that I would have to pay for delivery but he didnt know how much it was. Waited for two days with no reply. Phoned Customer Services again ( Bilal again )to be told that delivery was £40 !! Stated that it was a software problem which enabled me to make an order without paying delivery ? Found Bilal to be quite rude and he stated that I should have seen the terms and conditions on the front page Banner ( very small font which you have to click into and then read !!) He then stated what do you want, pay the delivery or cancel the order. No management available to take my complaint. Absolute cowboy outfit, avoid like the plague.

The Living Room on Dumbarton Road is an absolutely beautiful shop! Even if you don't have the space…read moreor the funds for new furniture, it's worth paying a visit just to browse. A lot of shops like this get a bit funny if you're just having a look - but the lady in The Living Room was lovely and didn't mind at all. All the furniture is arranged into little "rooms", which makes the whole place feel really homely. As well as all sorts of furniture - you'll also find smaller furnishings such as vases, candles and lamps. There are some really nice gifty bits and pieces that would make great presents, and I even spied some gorgeous wooden Christmas decorations on the counter. Prices range from £10 or £20 for small furnishings and lampshades to £2000 for a sofa. Although quite a bit pricier for furniture than a certain unnamed Scandinavian superstore, the furniture in The Living Room is infinitely more individual and stylish and much, much better quality. Worth a trip - even if it's just to dream.

I agree with Katie A. in that this really is a shop to visit, even if just for a wee wander. My…read moreguy and I stopped in here a few weekends ago after a lunch date in the west end. Neither of us had ever been in before, but my guy reminded me that Jack and Victor of Still Game shot some scenes in this shop way back. Even though this shop is called The Living Room, it really caters to the whole home and depending on your style, there really is something for every room. We were in looking at bedroom sets and found one that we really liked, and put it on our list of contenders. The staff in this shop are helpful and polite, but be warned, they don't take kindly to shoplifters. Since it seems there were only two people on staff, in a pretty large shop, they have cameras and notices everywhere that CCTV is in operation. No bother, I'm sure that helps in feeling safe. Towards the back of the shop were bits and bobs of sale items, ranging from discontinued furniture to outdated candles and pillows. Everything still in really great shape, the discounted price just makes them that much sweeter. We left happy with ideas of how we want to furnish our house and even stopped by their larger store in Merchant City (which wasn't as nice as this shop) and fully plan on coming back for other decorating needs.

Hello! When did this wee gem spring up?…read more It's not really wee, and it looks new - I'm guessing it's only been on Cockburn Street under a month. Old Town Context is a refreshing, traditional store on Cockburn Street, steering away from the style of the tourist traps on the Royal Mile to offer alternative gift ideas. They have some old English, French and American advert poster art, cards, stationery, gifts, mugs with pin ups on them, clocks made out of recycled glass drinks bottles - a very eclectic and classy selection. Its inspiration is clearly from bygone era's, and I was very impressed with their postcard range. They also have some cracking cards and original prints with cats on them. These cats are wearing kilts and rugby shifrts, quoting Burns and other Scottish poets within the print. It's a very odd idea but entirely up my alley. Overall a very enjoyable shop for the family. It's difficult to walk out of here without buying anything.

In a very different and almost vintage way, it is a souvenir shop. I say that because there were lots of prints, cards, coffee mugs of the city and various British 'things', but they are not the types of souvenirs that you would find in the every single store on the Royal Mile... yeah, you know what I mean. I loved the different prints of the city, my favourite was a very art deco-ish print highlighting the castle in a yellowy-orangish hue against a dark background. They had it as a large print, a card, and a coffee mug. I am now kicking myself that I did not buy it. If you love globes or tin signs, they have loads of them! If you are looking for a different kind of souvenir for someone... or just something for yourself, stop in here because they have some really wonderful items.

After visiting Decorium today I was pleasently surpirzed by the place. It has an array of beautiful lights, mirrors tables and soft furnishings all with a north African feel to them. The owner of the shop says they get deliveries from the African continent around once a month and was kind enough to advise on the perfect mirror for our family home. I also noticed a lovely wooden table and 4 chair set for a very reasonable 270 pounds. I wil definitely visit this place when furnishing my first flat!

It's like an Aladins Cave, with crazy cushions, stately chaise's, and obscure objet d'art. Not to mention the lamps. They do sinceriously awesome lamps - from multi-bulbed (of different sizes!), glass dome encasements, to the brightly coloured giant miners lamps. If you're not careful, you'll miss that they have a downstairs too. We did, and the staff ( who were in no way pushing sales), pointed it out. Third is whet they have some great pictures, in a variety of styles - but I really liked a big pop art one. If I had loads of money, I could easily spend a fortune here! The stock for somewhere like this must rotate quite regularly, so I look forward to checking it out again in a few months time.
