Alison Cork’s Savvy Savers column in last Sunday’s Mirror newspaper featured our Canvas Wardrobe in grey-blue.  Made for STORE in 2010 we’ve a few left over in last year’s colours and decided to drop the price from £30 to just £12.

As Alison spotted, £12 is great bargain for such a well made canvas wardrobe and most were snapped-up by savvy Sunday Mirror readers over the weekend.

We do have a few left in stock so if you’re in need of a bit of extra wardrobe space in your space room, want a cheap but sturdy wardrobe for the kids or need to organise some storage space in your student digs, look no further

The BBC’s Nature Editor Matt Walker reports this week that Seagrass Net has just completed it’s first global survey of seagrass finding that nearly 15% are at risk of extinction. Over sedimentation via runoff from watershed and deforestation in developing parts world alongside nutrient overloading from agricultural and sewage run-off is causing massive decline. Add to this the effects of seafloor dredging and seagrass is globally at risk.

Are your seagrass baskets and storage boxes being made from responsibly harvested resources?

Seagrasses are important habitat for manatees, sea turtles, and fish such as sea horses and Seagrass Net director Profession Frederick Short told the BBC that:

” Seagrasses are both direct food for important species and as they break down within the coastal ecosystem, they are part of a vast food web that provides food to many organisms within the coastal ocean, including many commercially and recreationally important species.

Unfortunately, being submerged in the ocean they are rarely directly seen except by swimmers or snorkelers.”

Prof Short’s findings are to be published in the journal of Biological Conservation but before you purchase a cheap seagrass basket online it’s worth checking whether the retailer is responsibly sourcing it’s seagrass baskets and boxes as we are here at STORE.

This week in The Sunday Express  STORE got a neat mention in their “The Girl with the Organised Office” article. The Express revamped Anne Davies’ Home Office  and made into  a clutter-free work space…with STORE prodcuts of course!

The Expresses interior designers used our Undershelf Basket in a clever way, hanging it over the desktop and using it for storing stationery plus other bits and bobs! The Cube is another essential piece of clutter clearing kit we’d recomend for a neat and tidy desk.
