From homewares to fragrances, fruity gins to stocking fillers, Christmas decorations to chocolate temptations, the diversity of the treats on offer was truly amazing.We were exhibiting our Mairi Helena soft furnishings and accessories collection within the newcomers area of the show where we had our luxury velvet feather cushions on display.
