Bree & Lauren round up their top five for October with colour, craft, and comfort at the centre. From tiled furniture and Tasmanian-inspired rugs to smarter sheers, Ikea edits, and a Milanese armchair, we share what’s worth your money and why it matters.

• Wild South rug collection and the new book ' A Visual Feast' by Jono Fleming 
• Mokum sheers and smarter colour ranges from Warwick 
• Ikea walkthrough strategy and notable collabs 
• Studiopepe’s Shibari chair and why sculptural seating matters 
• Weave Home’s Fabien rug as an everyday base 
• Maker & Son x Studio ALM for comfort and joyful textiles 
• Ola Mexicola launch and playful homewares
• ManyChat Instagram Summit takeaways for creators 
• Lily Allen’s new album 'West End Girl' and creative momentum
