It's easy to see why man got fed up with living in wattle and daub huts, and made wood burning stoves a deity. The cold winter months are enough to drive even the most unbearably keen outdoor enthusiasts indoors, seeking home comforts and the whistle of a boiled kettle.

To help you create your perfect winter refuge, we've taken inspiration from the Danish (masters of ‘Hygge’, which roughly translates to 'the art of cosiness').

If you’re anything like us, you’ve left your Christmas shopping to the very last minute and not even Amazon Prime can save you now!

In desperate times like this, homemade gifts – like this DIY hairpin leg stool – are the perfect saviour, cleverly disguising your disorganised approach to Christmas with a lovingly crafted piece of your own handiwork. 

To inspire you to try a spot of weekend DIY, we're going to show you how easy it is to make your own unique hairpin leg table using a natural slab of wood.

Our hairpin legs have an exciting new feet-ure! (Sorry. The dad jokes will stop now.)

Introducing our new hairpin leg floor protectors. These colourful rubber feet slip neatly on the bottom of your hairpin legs – ideal to protect delicate floors, and for extra grip on slippery surfaces.
