Rua Dublin - Homewares, Gifts & Accessories
Based just around the corner from the One Fab Day HQ, I walk past this lovely store every morning on my way to work and each day I'm tempted in by the gorgeous window displays. Rua is a super cute shop on Dublin's Capel Street filled to the brim with accessories for the home, books, party accessories, jewellery and other little bits and bobs. For any DIY enthusiasts Rua also takes bookings for Annie Sloane chalk paint classes, which would be handy for transforming your existing furniture into wedding décor with a rustic alternative feel. If you're looking for alternative Hen Party accessories Rua is also a good go-to, just look at that sweet vintage inspired "Bride To Be.." rosette!
