I really like your cupboards, Marth. They're perfect for a bathroom. Well, anywhere really but the slats will work so well in a bathroom.
The colours are lovely in your print, Froozy. Where have you hung it?

I bought two walnut postcard frames I spotted on Etsy, to fill a blank space by my built-in desk. I've got a few frames like this as I often grab a postcard or two following a gallery visit, and it's a nice way to display them for a while (and I can change them as I please). These are Edvard Munch postcards I got a while ago.

Those are classy, and I like the mixing of the woods.

Very nice Rosa.
I’ve bought yet more plants because obviously 3848363 plants isn’t enough in my house already. Two trailing and one little Monstera because it was only a fiver.

I've had to have a word with myself about plants, Squirrel. I have so many now!

Get one Epp! 
Rosa whereas I keep wanting to acquire more, I’ve still got some surfaces without a plant on! Surely no such thing as too many?
I’ve got a bit of a nursery going on top of my fridge, it’s near the roof light but not directly below, and anything that’s struggling a bit gets bunged up there as they seem to love it and and everything grows like mad. It’s getting full so I need to swap some out. It’s like a plant hospital.

Re: Ideal Homes- Show Us Your New Purchases!
I’m loving all those plants, Rosa!
My sitting room has an area in it which doesn’t get much light, but it really needs something to bring it together. A plant would be perfect, but they don’t last long in that spot. I considered a really good artificial one, but felt bad about the plastic.
Anyway, I might have lost my mind, but I heard that paper flowers were having a moment, so I’ve ordered some to see how they look. If they’re terrible I’ll just use them as Easter decorations or something
. They’d be used separately, not together.

The cherry blossom is beautiful! The others are lovely too but I have a massive soft spot for cherry blossom :))

Thanks, all. I really hope they’re not too naff in the flesh. I’m already having doubts.

They're pretty! I have some preserved flowers (real ones with the internal water replaced with gel or something like that), and they look great.
