I love that H1ppy! I’d lounge on that with some throws and my dog, most definitely!

Mr L has just bought this, he’s been looking longingly at it in the window of a local gallery for ages. I like it, and think it needs a red arm chair the same colour as the Union Jack underneath it to set it off (the walls will not be that dire colour for ever!).

90s teenage nephew very much approved of that, Liv. Your idea about the armchair would look GREAT. As would a nice guitar propped up next to it :look:

What made me laugh was the way it was packed. Wrong way round but I wondered what it was when I saw that young chap staring up at me.

It’s so cute! They sell similar little ceramic houses in Frank in Whitstable - I was eyeing them last week :)

That’s so pretty!

I really like my new bargain armchair, and it’s very comfortable. Obviously the vacuum cleaner on charge behind it only adds to the charm :look:

This is going back tomorrow, it's just too big for what I need. Aldi Customer Services were very good today when I phoned up to sort it out.

What a lovely gift!

The blank wall space below the stairs in the hallway has always bugged me, and I finally decided on this mirror which I think works well.

Happy belated birthday Chicky! Do you think MrChicky is going to buy you a lifetime of owl themed gifts :))

I love the mirror Rosa! It fits the space perfectly. Could I ask where you bought the blinds you had made? The photo has disappeared but I remember how lovely they were. I'm finally looking for blinds now the kids have swapped rooms (George is not keen on blue hares, Liv didn't mind them!)

The roman blinds were from John Lewis. I got them to do the measuring and fitting too and it wasn't as expensive as I'd feared.

Hopefully :)) although I am running out of wall space for paintings!

Lovely mirror Rosa!

Thank you Rosa! I think I can save a little money by measuring myself as I can just measure the inherited blinds.
