Whoever said giving is better than receiving obviously never bought themselves a House of Hackney cheetah lampstand and then sat for hours on end flicking it on and off and gazing at it adoringly as they realised it fully completed them as a person.
But what if there were some magical way of receiving delicious home goodies AND have that added moral superior rush one gets from the thrill of giving? These nine interior finds look great, and they also help to give back to charity – particularly women’s causes. It’d basically be heartless for you not to whip out your credit card…
Psst, if you’re some kind of super shopping saint you could give these ethical treats as presents too, thus guaranteeing entry to heaven for eternity, no questions asked.*
