Wow, just wow. Your creations are amazing!!

Unfortunately I live in a rented house atm so can't really do much decoration. OH and myself are saving for our own house and I've already got most of it decorated already :rotfl:.

Suppose theres nothing to stop me doing little bits and peices and putting them by/on display though!!

I love those little ceramic birds from Wilko's, just so pretty. We've got a store opening in town soon so I hope that they stock them .

I really want one of those old style vanity tables with the cortina (ish) style mirrors to SC up. With a nice little stool to SC up too.

Oh, sorry, my intro. I'm Mia, 22 and from Edinburgh. Currently living with my OH and my LO (and the cat :rotfl:)

Glad I didn't see that before it went. I would have been so tempted!

Oh my word, this thread has moved quickly since I've been gone. There have been some fantastic bargains and make overs, and I'm really sorry I can't remember who but those paintings and drawings were just incredible.

I'm very sleepy, it was a bit of a crazy return flight...ended up in an airport 100 miles from the original destination and very pleased to be back home. I did get some very good news whilst I was away though, we have an exchange date!

And in excitement, my OH bid on and won this for us. I'm hoping when we get it home it will be easily converted to solid fuel, but we'll see

Could you get some large pillows/cushion inners and sew an envelope cover for them? That way it can be thrown into the wash, is comfy and you can do it in a fabric to match. That's all my kitty gets to sleep on (or maybe I'm just a mean cat mummy :rotfl:)

at the moment they have a large pillow type bed between them but I really want them to have one each of the donut shaped beds. Whippets are complete wimps and like to be snug as a bug and we thought that if there were sides on the bed it would be warmer for them. Also has to be very soft as they are quite bony dogs.
