I like the print and the plant stand. I’d like a plant stand too but that’s for another payday...

This is it, Heebie... slightly too dark to match everything else but I fell quite in love with it!

I’m considering this now, or something along these lines:

Your mat has better reviews than the mat I’ve looked at. Does yours have the pillow? I’m not sure if I should get a mat with a pillow.

Yeah, I got the pillow too. It’s nice under shoulders.

Oh that first coffee table really is lovely. It wouldn't work under my TV because of the shape but it's beautiful.

That first coffee table is just lovely, Margo.

I went to get my plant stand this afternoon and it was out of stock :ella:

I am also coveting a plant stand actually. I just need to measure the space to check it will fit (I want it to go in the bathroom). Hive mind strikes again!

Oh! I want a plant stand too. I saw one on a Facebook advert (which obviously I can’t buy because it probably doesn’t exist) and I can’t find it anywhere else. Super annoying.

It was this but in gold. There’s no way that’s going to turn up and look like that for only £20 :lol:

Mine is to fill a space in the kitchen which has been freed up by finally relocating the Ikea play kitchen. It should come back in stock in a week or two apparently.

That one is nice, Pov, but as you say risky for the price.

It’s a truly beautiful table but as I’ve had so much hassle with delivery etc I’m loathe to order a replacement. The colours isn’t quite right but I could get over that... I’ll keep looking for one I like more but I suspec such a thing doesn’t exist...

Ikea has some lovely metal plant stands.

It reminds me of the Ercol Windsor coffee table which is what I really want - but the original one with the bars underneath rather than a solid shelf. My mum offered me theirs but they still use it so I said no. Could you look for one of those if available at a price that wasn't ruinously expensive?

I’d love a real Ercol, I’m just searching everywhere for something I like.

I actually love my current coffee table, a vintage danish teak surfboard style, but the top needs redoing. Maybe I should do that instead!

Anyway, following a thread by Lily I have treated myself to a couple of vintage powder compacts plus some new makeup to go in them. I have also ordered a new Echo dot, for music down in my “work” room, as they were only £30 on offer.
I was looking for dots and found this! Please may we see pictures of the compacts?
