Mayo

Time for a rewarding cuppa

The bog water in west Mayo makes some of the best tea in the land.

After all the screaming at the TV, it's time for a relaxing cuppa.

Keep tea leaves fresh in tin Blomningt caddies, in a deep Bordeaux red or pink, €4 for a set of two.

Serve with biscuits on a green Plarkaktuss side plate, €3 each, and a brew in a Pansarmal cup, €3 each; all Ikea.

Raise a glass to the team

The City barware collection includes these highballs,  a modern take on a classic crystal design. 

Cuts on the surface create texture. Serve beverages with grenadine hues and mint-based options like a mojito, to really show your county colour allegiance.

Designed by Martti Rytkönen, a set of four costs €75 from Meadows & Byrne.

A lucky charm

There were many Child of Prague statues on display across the county in the run-up to the big day in Croke Park.

An everyday way to ensure that change of fortune is a new era for Mayo footballers is to make use of this clover-shaped trivet every day, €29, from Article Dublin.

Serve up a big fry the morning after the night before on it, in a green frying pan of course.

Keep the home (turf) fires burning

The peat smell of a turf fire is something that still evokes winter in rural Mayp.

This beautifully scented candle by Belfast-based Born and Bred features notes of oak, woodsmoke and patchouli, €20, from Designist in Dublin 2.

Keep the flame alive and burn in the window as the team travels west.
