If you don’t have a chance to go to the store yourself, the website has plenty more options of homeware items than inside the shop itself that can be delivered in a matter of days to your doorstep and if scrolling through hundreds of web pages fills you with trepidation and overwhelm- don’t worry. We’ve got you covered and have gone through Dunelm’s sale, so you don’t have to.
Below is a little round up of some of the best deals, prettiest objects and helpful homeware items you’ll want to get your hands on from Dunelm coming into summer – while saving yourself some money along the way.
Tutti Bambini Jonah Rocking Chair and Foot Stool
This gorgeous rocking chair and footstool has been reduced in the Dunelm sale by over £50 and now costs £239.20. Predominantly designed for offering maximum comfort for mums and babies and ‘full support during feeding’, the chair and stool are beautifully designed and ooze a Scandi-vibe with their neutral colouring, soft brushed cotton fabric and wooden features. You’re also safe in the knowledge that this chair can’t easily be ruined by spillages or stains because Scotchguard has been used in its make-up to help protect the fabric.
Get it here for £239.20.
Day and Night White Daylight Roller Blind
Summer is almost here (it technically starts on June 20) and we’re all loving the fact that our mornings and evenings are not drenched in darkness. But when you’re trying to sleep or you don’t have quite as earlier of a start, you want to ensure you’ve got some blinds that will keep your home light in the day but dark at night so allow you some uninterrupted shut eye. Starting at £14.40, these clever blinds are made from two layers of fabric that glide over each other so you can easily control how much light you’re letting in.
The fabric used alternates between sheer and opaque blocks which work to either give you max lighting whilst still giving you some privacy (so the outside world can’t see in) during the day or total privacy at night.
One customer cited these blinds as a ‘game changer’ for family members who works from home and said: “So easy to fit and look so elegant. Two of the family work from home and the ability to control the amount of light on the screens is a complete game changer.”
While for the most part the blinds are praised, some weren’t as impressed that they weren’t ‘blackout’ blinds. One said: ” The only downside is that it is quite thin when on the night time mode so still lets the sun through but overall very pleased.” It does state in the description, however, that a degree of natural light can still filter through.
They blinds are available in a range of sizes so you can choose one based on your window needs.

Linen Duvet Cover Set
When the summer months hit, you don’t want to be waking up in the middle of the night, trapped under a sweltering duvet and duvet cover that retains heat. Linen bedding is great for those circumstances as it is breathable and will help keep you breezy and cool during the heat. While practicality is key, we also love an aesthetically pleasing bed set and linen will always elevate your decor and give it a flair of luxury that you can seldom get with polyester or some cottons.
Coming in a range of colours – terracota, olive and natural – the duvet cover set has been reduced from £80 for a single to £64.

Fogarty Cool Duvet Anti-Allergy 4.5 Tog Summer Duvet
Of course every duvet set needs a duvet and when the temperatures begin to soar, you want something that is going to be breathable and won’t weigh you down and make you even warmer. This Fogarty Cool Duvet Anti-Allergy 4.5 Tog Summer Duvet is filled with polyester hollowfibre for maximum comfort and has a super soft microfibre cover. It’s also dust mite resistant and is machine washable. With a recommended tog level of 2.5 to 4.5 for the summer months, this duvet is perfect when the weather ekes into heatwaves territory.

Apartment Window Rectangle Full Length Wall Mirror
Every house needs a relatively large mirror. Not only are they great for when you need to see your full outfit in all its glory but they are ideal in smaller spaces as it makes the room look way bigger than it is. With 50% off, the mirror now costs £60 down from £120 and has been designed with a design art-deco-like finish thanks to its black borders and lines.
Those who have already purchased this have exclaimed: “Beautiful mirror, picture doesn’t do it’s justice on how gorgeous the mirror is.”

Lecco 3m Cantilever Parasol
The sun is making more and more of an appearance – and we are here for it. While we’ve all probably stocked up on barbecues, garden chairs and tables, you may now be thinking about a parasol for when the sun has got a bit too much – or you want to take your working from home laptop station to the garden. With a 3x3m span, this brolly is great for protecting you come rain or shine and is available in both a cream and grey colourway. The parasol can also withstand the wind thanks to its aluminium frame. The Cantilever parasol comes with a crank handle, cantilever action and tilt mechanism to easily adjust it.
Having been reduced from £139 to £111.20 in the Dunelm sale, now’s the perfect time to invest.

Checkerboard Indoor Outdoor Rug
To add some flair to your outdoor space, why not look to introduce a rug to give your patio a stylish finish? This checkerboard rug doubles up as an indoor and an outdoor gem and is made from durable Polypropylene – although it ‘reaps all the visual benefits o a Jute look’. With a beige and brown alternating woven attern, this rug is super elegant and can be easily cleaned by a vacuum.
Available in four different sizes, the rug starts at £17.50 (originally £25) and goes up to £80.50, depending on how big you want it.

Churchgate Metal Dining Set
I know, I know, we’re on a bit of an outdoor theme – it’s nearly summer! How could we not help you make your garden or outdoor space look the best it can possibly be? If you’ve not got yourself some outdoor dining furniture, this metal set – which comes in the most gorgeous minty blue colour – is perfect for those early morning al fresco breakfasts and dinners. Great for those with smaller gardens too as the round table and chairs won’t take up too much space at all. Plus they’re easily folded up to be stored when not in use and they’ve been ‘crafted to endure the elements’.
Costing £129 down from £179, the set comes with four metal chairs and a round table.
