  • Terracotta Watering Stake
    Terracotta Watering Stake

    Terracotta Watering Stake

    €10.00
    Using the power of osmosis, you can keep your plant babies healthy and happy. This watering stake is made from terracotta, which is porous, so the water seeps out slowly close to the roots where your plants need it. You dig a hole in the soil next to the plant big enough for the stake, fill it with water, and cover with the carrot top lid. Check periodically if it needs to be topped up by lifting the lid. You can use the stake to water your plants for up to 2 weeks by adding a filled plastic bottle to the base of the stake. Looking for gifts for those with green fingers? Have a look at our garden and growing things collection . Or why not pop over to see what other bright ideas are here at designist? What's it made of? Unglazed Terracotta clay How does it come?

    Liffey Bridges Dublin Tea Towel

    €13.00
    This graphic Liffey Bridges Tea Towel was designed by Clover Rua, It features six iconic Dublin bridges. The Ha'penny Bridge was Dublin's first toll bridge, built in 1816 to replace barges that ferried people from one side to the other. Dubliners were charged to use it to cross for the first 100 years of its existence. Grattan Bridge, whose current incarnation was built by the amazingly named Bindon Blood Stoney, who is also responsible for O'Connell Bridge and the North Bull lighthouse, as well as inventing the diving bell. The James Joyce Bridge, named for the author, and built in 2003, scenes of it being driven down the quays ahead of installation made the nationwide news. One of Joyce's stories - The Dead - was set in nearby 15 Ushers Island. O'Connell Bridge, originally designed by James Gandon and called Carlisle Bridge, the current version was redesigned and renamed in 1882, and is unusual as it is wider than it is long, with a span of 45m and a width of 50m. Rory O'Moore Bridge, formerly the Victoria & Albert bridge it was renamed for Rory O'Moore, a central figure in the Irish rebellion of 1641. Samuel Beckett Bridge is the most recent addition to Dublin's bridges and was designed by Santiago Calatrava , who also designed the James Joyce Bridge. It's designed to echo a harp on its side and can be opened to allow large ships to pass upstream. The strings of the harp can be lit up using low-energy LED in various colours to display images or messages. The Loopline Bridge for the Dart, built in 1891, was very controversial at the time as it blocked the view of the Custom House; it was deemed necessary to allow transatlantic mail to be delivered from both Cobh and Dun Laoghaire ports.
