Does anyone know where I can buy those lovely decorative glass jars? The kind you put cotton wool, soap etc in. I want them as a Xmas present though, so ideally not too expensive (£15 max)?We must all suffer one of two things: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret and disappointment0

TK Maxx is always good for these items and from £2.99 each are a bargain!0 -
Ohh I'm glad to see this thread being revived. lol I was after a dresser for ages & finally will be coming into possession of 1 tomorrow morning. Only problem is lol now I need to find where I am putting it & get it painted, its all pine at the moment & needs a slight repair BUT its free

I love this thread - in Spring we hope to buy (FTB) and then I will have my Dream Kitchen - in the interim maybe I will scrapbook ideas and piccies and glean advice from this thread. For me a kitchen has to be cosy, friendly, full of life and good food - have an ultra-modern one in our current rented flat and although it's nice, it doesn't say much about us xMFW #185

Thought I had lost this thread for ever :eek:
Just want to boast... I have finally tracked down a little bureau :j :j
OK, it did cost £30and my long-suffering Dad is having to tighten up a few joints, but I can't wait to rev up the sander & dig out the F&B!
It has a small dropleaf flap, with pigeon holes inside and a wide drawer underneath, then shelves below. Can't find a comparable photo, butwill try to do before/ after shots.I can cook and sew, make flowers grow.0
