There's something deeply satisfying about a home that feels connected to the natural world. Not a home that looks like a forest — but one that quietly, confidently uses natural materials. Linen, wood, stone… and coconut shell products.
At Little Cherry, our Home & Garden Collection is built around exactly that idea: everyday objects, beautifully made from sustainable natural materials, designed to be used rather than just displayed.
What's in the Home & Garden Collection?
Our home and garden range spans the kitchen, the living room, the garden, and the windowsill — all tied together by a commitment to natural materials and zero-waste craftsmanship.
In the Kitchen
- Coconut Masala Spoons (Set of 6): Hand-carved from coconut shell, these spoons are perfect for serving dry spices, salts, or loose-leaf teas. They're a beautiful, functional alternative to plastic measuring spoons.
- Salad Spoons: Elegant and organic, our coconut shell salad spoons bring warmth to any table setting.
- Wooden Cutlery 3-Piece Set: A biodegradable alternative to single-use plastic cutlery, crafted from sustainably sourced wood.
- Natural Tea Cup with Wooden Handle: Sip your morning brew from something that feels genuinely connected to the earth. Perfect for herbal teas and slow mornings.
- Hand-Polished Coconut Shell Container with Teakwood Lid: A stunning little vessel for salt, loose tea, or trinkets. The combination of polished natural coconut shell and teakwood lid is a thing of beauty.
In the Garden
- Coconut Shell Planter with Cork Tray: Our coconut shell planter is one of our best-loved products. It's a natural, biodegradable pot that's perfectly sized for succulents, cacti, herbs, and small houseplants. The cork tray underneath catches water without staining surfaces.
- Bird Feeder Oval with Jute Hanging: Hang this from a branch or fence post and give your garden visitors a natural feeding station. The jute twine and coconut shell construction mean it blends beautifully into any outdoor space.
- Tropical Candle Holder: A gorgeous natural coconut shell repurposed as a tealight or pillar candle holder. It casts warm, dappled light and brings a tropical warmth to any room.
- Piggy Bank: A charming, handcrafted coconut shell money box. A wonderful addition to a child's room or a quirky gift.
Why Choose Natural Materials for Your Home?
The shift toward natural home décor isn't just a trend — it's a response to something real. Synthetic materials off-gas chemicals, break down into microplastics, and often feel cold and clinical. Natural materials age beautifully, feel warmer to the touch, and connect us to something larger than ourselves.
Coconut shell products in particular have a remarkable quality: they improve with age. The more you handle them, the more they develop a natural patina and character. A plastic spoon looks the same on day one as it does on day five hundred — and then it ends up in landfill. A coconut masala spoon only gets more beautiful with time.
Styling Tips: Using Natural Home Products
- Group by material: Coconut shell products look their best alongside other natural materials — raw linen, cork, terracotta, jute, and unbleached cotton. Avoid mixing them with shiny chrome or high-gloss finishes.
- Use the planter as a centrepiece: Pop a small succulent or trailing plant into a coconut shell planter and place it on a kitchen windowsill or bathroom shelf. It's an instant, low-effort way to add life and texture.
- Layer your table setting: Coconut salad spoons and masala spoon sets look beautiful arranged together on a wooden chopping board. It's a ready-made styled vignette that also happens to be entirely practical.
- Hang the bird feeder in a visible spot: Position it where you can see it from the kitchen or living room window. Watching birds visit is a genuinely restorative daily experience.

Many of our home and garden products make exceptional gifts — especially for people who are moving into a new home, love cooking, or are working on reducing plastic in their lives. The Candle Gift Set and Love Gift Hamper are particularly popular, and all our orders ship in beautiful, plastic-free kraft packaging.
