Curated Homeware for Colourful Living. South Africa’s most vibrant collection of bold home decor and accessories.

27/10/2026

At By John, we've never been shy about making a statement.

We love bold colours, playful designs and homes full of personality.

And now? We're adding a little rugby into the mix

But not just any rugby merchandise. This is By John after all!

Oh-so proudly South African and inspired by our beloved Springboks, this collection brings together two things we absolutely love: rugby and beautiful things.

Think rugby merch, but make it chic!

From a braai with the boys to a beautifully set table with the girls, these pieces celebrate the Bokke with a little more style, a little more charm and a whole lot more fun.

A bit of rugby. A bit of fabulous. All for the love of the Bokke.

Most of you know me as the quirky woman behind By John. The brand that's unapologetically colourful, whimsical and full of personality.

But there's another side of me you might not know… 🤭

I'm a bit of a boet myself! I absolutely froth over a cold b**r, a good rugby match and getting completely invested in the game.

You could say I'm a little boet and a little boujee. 💅🏉

Why am I telling you this? You’ll have to wait and see… 🤫

I could say I’m sorry, but it’s going to be sooo worth it! I’ll keep you posted, promise! 🤭

Any guesses? 👀

The content creation phase is HUMBLING.

Strategy, planning, trends, timing… it’s a lot.
And at the end of the day?
I’m just a girl trying to sell pink stuff.

Good things take time and honestly, we love that. It means every detail is considered.

Our fab placemat = no more boring tables!

Double-sided for whatever vibe you’re feeling, and made from durable outdoor fabric to handle real life (spills and all).

"I love it, but I don't think it'll work in my space."

I hear this sentence all the time! Someone lights up, leans in, says this is amazing - and then, in the very same breath, talks themselves right back out of it.

It's not really about the space. It's about being brave enough to want something bold and letting yourself have it anyway.

If you've ever said this sentence out loud, in a shop, about anything - I'd love to know what it was.

Drop a comment with the thing you talked yourself out of. I'll go first!

Why is this actually working?! 😂

Love our new double sided placemats! Made a few samples for Decorex. What so you guys think? If you like them I'll make some more. 😉 xx

I spend so much time thinking about what's next that I rarely stop and look back.

Swipe through 3 years of milestones, pinch-me moments, and a few things I'm still struggling to believe happened. 🥹

P.S: if you made it to the end... yes, there's a little clue about something exciting coming soon. 👀

Some things just belong on a wall. 🦞

Proof that storage doesn't have to be boring!
