    Saucy what about a "custom items" section with pics of things you have done for others and saying to contact you with their ideas for a quote?

    i actually think the chair is real has the lusty lloyd loom label under. the guy thought it was wrecked and he would get it cheap as he repairs them his email was really curt even though i replied to an advert he has on gumtree bought it from a guy i know was his grans and had been up the attic since 1970 they were having a clear out style looks 1950/60 so will see only paid £6 for it and its so comfy can see it ending up in bedroom in new house .
    So finally debt free and it feels amazing however continuing here to stay debt free.Next declutter house and body and finally swim under that waterfall x

    Elly - when is your 7yr old turning 8. can you keep it in secret and give it a bit of a tidy up and give it as a birthday present. If it is valuable then they get a bit of a bonus selling it when they are older.

    then you put the money you saved on part of their birthday towards this challenge.
