I love the colour and pattern, Squizz - it looks stylish and friendly.

[nineseven]

That’s lovely, Squince.

I finally treated myself to the kettle and toaster of dreams

[Estrella]

I need those to go with my new coffee machine! They look lovely against your tiles.

[Edith Bacon]

Oooooh! They look perfect with your tiles and worktop.

[Squirrel]

Those are so nice!

[Squirrel]

Now I’m thinking I should buy two sets for practical reasons but then it’ll be £90 and I’m not supposed to be spending money .

[nineseven]

They’re also lovely to use! The cheap kettle and toaster I bought to tide me over ended up being used for about eight years

[Rosa]

They look perfect!

[Marth]

Nice one, Nince.

I had a yearning for these.

[Annabella]

They are nice Marth. I am all a bit stemless wine/drinks glasses at the moment due to outdoors elements and clumsy friends (including myself)

[Livilla]

Have those got dimples in the bottom, Marth? Lots of lovely homewares (including all the Smeg!). I also love the tv sideboard, I will need one of those…

Apart from buying £££ worth of Crittal glazed doors today for our renovation work I have also bought these pendant lamps to hang over the kitchen island, and these dining chairs (the cognac ones), to replace the current very traditional Laura Ashley ones we have. I am planning on doing a a bit of sanding and painting of the Laura Ashley table that they match, and which we’re keeping (this could be a terrible idea :lol: ).

[Princess Morripov]

They are lovely chairs

[Cosmopolitan]

Those chairs look like the most comfy dinner party chairs ever. I'm desperate for new dining room furniture but paralysed by choices.

[wendy james]

I love the glasses Marth.

The home sales are good this summer! I love trawling Anthro for bargains.

[emma_p]

One of my ebay saved searches came up today! I must have been coveting these since about 2012 and they've been on my ebay watch list for a couple of years. Definitely one off the life completion list (TM Pip ;) )

CHEESEBOARDS are in my future!

[Derek Nimmo]

I know I'll probably live to regret it, but I've just ordered this from Made. It's a bit hospitally, but should work with the grey / blue / white scheme I'm thinking of for the back bedroom. It was also, rather importantly, a total bargain in their sale.

[Toast]

I like your bed, Derek. Has it arrived yet?

I bought this for my kitchen. It's based on the 2020 survey of garden birds which I think some of us took part in so I thought you might like to see it.

[Derek Nimmo]

Oh that's lovely

The bed came super quickly (I only ever order stuff from Made with immediate availability these days) but has been residing in the garage ever since as I need to move the sofa bed base my mattress is currently resting on to be moved out to the garden studio* first.

*Still being built, I think 5 months in now :shoe:

[Derek Nimmo]

This is nothing major but the lack of anywhere to store herbs and spices in this stupidly planned kitchen has pissed me off since I moved in. I had to have them in a whacking great wooden box up on a shelf that was really heavy to get down.

But these splendidly magnetic spice racks ftw! Currently £12.99 for 2 on Amazon if anybody's interested.
