To celebrate the Royal Wedding (not Zara and that rugby bloke — the other one), Spaceslide.co.uk is selling sliding wardrobe doors featuring Prince William and Kate Middleton in its Limited Edition range — available, naturally, in red, white and blue.

Apparently the doors will also be making an appearance on the Alan Titchmarsh TV show later this month. Get your orders in now.
