We normally have a swap thread and for the first time I have something that someone else might like!

I received a Yankee oil burner in a tree design with two Christmas oil cakes. If anyone wants to swap for some soap and glory I would be forever in their debt.....

Ooh, yes- I got soap and glory and would love what you have! I’m out at the moment but will add the details later to see if you’re interested!

This is the clock, no idea why this person thinks I'm so into Star Wars!

@dementedma do you have anything at all in "as new" condition that you don't want? Could just throw random things in if you want to join in.

well I did get one of those Boots toiletry gift sets - have to check the make - nothing well known though. will probably give it to charity.

I have a pink B&M mermaid tail blanket (new but no packaging) which I would love to send on tomorrow (assuming the post office is open) to someone who wants it, no need for a swap!

oneblue what would you like for your Liz Earle, and what bits do you want to swap?

I would LOVE the Star Wars clock, it would go with DS Death Star lampshade and proposed new room makeover. Open to swaps, message me your family makeup/ideas for swaps?

Hmm, let's see. I have

  1. a unicorn themed slim calendar and diary set
  2. a fold up tote bag (quite a sturdy thing, not a tiny fold up shopping bag) same as this one
    m.ebay.co.uk/itm/Sarah-Jessica-Parker-Foldup-Tote-Bag-Ladies-Handbag-shopping-Work-Weekend-Away-/182802632109
  3. a make up bag with cute design (forget now whether it was puppies or rabbits - it's in another house until the new year)
  4. lots of different bottles of wine, which I don't drink - also in another house
  5. an A5 Highland cow design (the artist that does the colourful ones) diary
  6. black striped polo neck dress 12-18 months
  7. Baby's World board book set
  8. various baby hats and gloves that are not going to fit (for a 1 year old but mine is more like age 3 in hats Blush)

    Most are at the other house as I'm visiting family so can send photos or post in the new year.

Great thread

@JoyceByers I would love that blanket. What would you like to swap it for?

@SideOrder Anything really, I like little bath bits or candles but I'd just like it to have a hope with someone who'd actually wear it!

@IrisApfelRocks I genuinely don’t want a swap, would love it to go to someone who will use it! I’m away on holidays tomorrow but can send on the 3rd if you send me your address :)
