The easiest and cheapest way to spruce up your house is to buy accessories. Cushions, new shelving, lighting all help give your home a facelift. Things like Perrin and Rowe taps are relatively cheap to buy and can give the sink area  a new lease of life, particularly if you choose something in chrome like below.

 

 

We like a slice of traditional at Sinks.co.uk, which is why these Perrin and Rowe kitchen taps, which is why we like these taps (pictured)...they some how manage to look both modern and classical at the same time. Nice work Perrin & Rowe!

Behold, ladies and gents - the most expensive tap in the world. 

The design (pictured) by Zaha Hadid is inspired by the flow of water. A touch sensitive electric button is used to activate the filtered water. A green halo light glows when operational, and flashed red when the water treatment cartridge needs replacing.

We think it's pretty darn nifty. We just have to find a way of affording the £5k price tag.  Sheesh!
