ReplyDeleteI'm about to relocate for work, and I'm going from renting a furnished room in a shared house to renting an unfurnished flat all on my own. I think I'm going to ask for frivolous stuff to decorate it with, although may go for some useful things on the list too. But I feel happier to spend money on the essentials, they're just not the things to make it feel homely.
ReplyDeleteI follow your blog in my feed reader.
ReplyDeleteAnd right at the top of the list - those Just for Fun prints immediately made me smile, so I think that just has to be my answer!

ReplyDeleteCan I say that the only thing on my holiday list is something I am never going to get...my hubby under the tree. I just don't think that santa can work that big of a miracle. Since I'm not going to get him I wouldn't mind getting a new set of kitchen knives, really nice ones.
