last modified: 8 years ago

It's that time of year already! With December and Christmas upon us, it's time to go out and get your Advent Calendar! Luckily for you, you won't have to look far - to celebrate the festive season, Houzz UK are hosting their very own Advent Calendar, chock full of some of the very best homeware brands in Britain, and you could be walking away a winner!

Throughout the month we'll be hosting a discussion every day sponsored by a different brand giving away one of their own signature products. All you need to do is comment on a discussion to enter!

To kick off the month in health-conscious style, we’ll be giving away a lovely copper wire fruit bowl courtesy of Anthropologie in Day 1 of our Advent Calendar!

So, to be in with a chance to win an Anthropologie basket, just tell us where you store your fruit, in the comments below. Whether it's in a bowl or in the fridge we want to know! The discussion will run until December 24th.

See our terms and conditions here.

      My girlfriend stores my fruit in really fancy bowls all around the house so it is a game of find the cute bowl and then find the fruit.


      Usually metal coloured and a bright colour on the inside.

      I use a an Italian style shallow bowl with hand painted lemons and blue flowers on it, I think a basket would look lovely though.

      I love fruit, I keep mine in various bowls, white ceramic, paper mache , they encourage me to eat more healthily if they look a pealing and if they are visible and in reach !

      In the metal fruit bowl on the dining table- always hoping to encourage the family to eat more fruit.

      I store all of my fruit and veg in huge wicker baskets on my kitchen worktop. When they're stored out in the open like that it makes then look so appetising that the kids go straight for the healthy stuff. It also makes meal planning and shopping a breeze.

      Berries in the fridge as they dont keep very long out of it but bananas in a wire basket and apples,oranges and grapefruit in another in the conservatory as I hate eating any of these straight from the firdge and they look so appealing and remind me to eat one every day!

      Soft fruit in the fridge, all other fruit in a glass fruit bowl.

      in my ikea wooden bowl or in the fridge, but have as much as possible out on the kitchen worktop so kids can pick what they want instead of eating rubbish snacks.

      I have an old wire fruit bowl which lives in the kitchen.....usually full of oranges!

      In my great-grandmother's crystal bowl. "Overflow" goes in whatever mixing bowl I have handy. I should probably invest in something more stylish than pyrex, lol.

      in a bag in a cupboard (student life is luxurious).

      I display my fruit in a bowl on the kitchen table.

    • Bessie Lee

      I keep mine on the kitchen counter, an easy to reach place for my two boys. This would allow them to see what fruit was inside though making it easier for them to choose.

      A mid-century teak bowl. It would be nice to upgrade!

      Fruits are great decoration so I expose them in my living room. Also I always have a bowl of fruits in my office.

      Glass fruit bowl usually, but this is so much nicer!

    • Liv Moore

      I always store my fruit in an ikea box in my bedroom because my flatmates are banana kleptomaniacs.... Not very classy from me, I'm afraid.

      In a quirky bowl I found in a charity shop

      A wide rattan basket, so it doesn't get squashed, and stays good.

      In a glass fruit bowl which we inherited from the previous owner of our house. I kept it for nostalgia and it's very useful!

      In a ceramic fruit bowl I made in a pottery class which accidentally turned out my partner's least favourite shade of yellow. He's too nice to say anything but next class I'll be working on my glazing skills...
