Tuesday November 11th, 2008 16:24 Housewarming and more decorating (bored yet?!)


Despite the fact the flat still isn’t quite how I’d like it, I had my housewarming party on Saturday. It was a rather lovely little gathering of Very Important People, and involved a lot of girls wearing black, me drinking out of a slightly outdated ‘Happy 21st’ champagne glass and Katie colour-coding my DVD collection. Oh yes, I know how to throw a proper rave up.

Speaking of the flat not being how I’d like it, here’s my current eBay obsession, because I know you all love my interior decorating fixation.


Right now it’s going for £14. I think it’s safe to sat it’ll go for a lot more than that, and very quickly end up out of my price range. But I can dream. Look at the big mirror! Heaven! I’m already imagining the fabrics I can cover the stool cushion with. What do we think of this one?

    Gasp! That dressing table is a thing of beauty. WANT.

    Sadly it went for about £200 plus delivery. *sob* I will die dreaming of that dressing table, I swear.

    That’s the thing I find slightly unsettling about Ebay. Sometimes it’s like you’re a starving street orphan and they’re dangling sandwiches in front of your face.
