(outing myself if any of my colleagues are on here)
My work bag is a fluffy panda backpack and my water bottle for work has roller skating and skate boarding dinosaurs on. My colleagues looked a bit Hmm Confused Grin but they are used to me. I often turn up wearing dinosaur or cartoon character sweatshirts. I love that dinosaur duvet cover in the OP. Am hoping to convince DH that we need it.
I sometimes try to pretend to be a responsible grown-up but it doesn't convince anyone for long.

I have a vintage dolls house, identical to the one I had when I was wee. I have redecorated it, scoured eBay for furniture and made many, many items for it. I'm scared to add up what I have spent on it but I'll keep adding too it. I have promised it to DD when she gets older but she doesn't know that she'll be a responsible (🤞) young adult before I let that happen (If I do manage to let go of it 😂)

We have a Tetris light and a Pacman Ghost light.

PhilODox · 20/09/2018 18:50

We have more Lego than the Lego shop.... It appears as though it's the children's, but more than half is mine and DH's. Am thinking of off-loading some of the vintage stuff, as I love the feel of brand new Lego Blush
It's just so smooth.
Also, the scooter by the front door? Not DS's....

BitchesLeave · 20/09/2018 19:08

TheQueef hahahaha! I am a strange sort of grown up.

Makeyourown I've never been there, just googled it though and I think I'd be very happy there!

OMG I've just bought the Dinosaur Duvet cover too.... Christmas present for DP

There's a lot of Disney in my house...

Exexexcel · 20/09/2018 19:21

I bought myself an electric pencil sharpener shaped like a fat penguin. Love it. Wanted an electric sharpener since I was little!

@Si1ver I really want to see a pic of your bathroom door, it does sound awesome #jealous!!

Cellardoor23 · 20/09/2018 19:51

A teenage mutant ninja turtles t-shirt that I mainly wear to bed.

A panda from build a bear that I dressed in a leather jacket and converse.

A beauty and the beast chip cup and a jungle book one.

Treasure Island book - love the book covering.

Grimm's complete fairy tales.

I really want a doll house and the Caroline doll from the film. But as my partner sensibly point out, I don't have space for a doll house. Nice way to squash my dreams.

Oh and a Joker phone case that has a jester on it.

GreatWesternValkyrie · 20/09/2018 20:05

On a work Apple device, as Apple inexplicably annoy me - it’s a bit of a childish protest but the pic itself is kind of cool...

Totally buying that dinosaur duvet cover on payday!
We have a crochet meeseeks and jareth the goblin kind pop (and another pop), a magical Trevor, a hufflepuff tote and a knit lightbulb on display in our living room. Well meeseeks is often just around the house as DD loves him but I made him for dh.

We also have a train set from IKEA that we supposedly bought for toddler DD. Yeahno. we get it out when she's in bed Blush and our own lego :D

DinosApple · 20/09/2018 21:20

I bought an orange dinosaur light "for the kids room"... Mine now, proudly in our living room. I'll see if I can find a picture on line and work out how to post it .

DinosApple · 20/09/2018 21:23

I am slowly collecting the new Harry Potter Lego minifigures. And I have it on good authority (our bank statement, cos he’s a fool) that DH has ordered me the new Lego Hogwarts for Christmas. Which I am Shock about because it costs approximately ten times what we usually spend on each other for Christmas. I’m insanely excited and trying not to let on that I know.

It may be preying on my mind too much though as I had a nightmare the other day involving a Love Actually necklace scenario where I opened a big box on Christmas Day and it was actually a blender. And he’d given some other woman Hogwarts!

FayKnights · 20/09/2018 21:38

Harry Potter Lego - The Great Hall and sharpies in every colour possible Grin
I want a bathroom behind a bookshelf door now

MadMaryBoddington · 20/09/2018 22:07

Ds has the Asda space cat duvet set.

I have nothing childish, except for a secret crush on Morten Harket that I have nurtured since 1985.

Walkerbean16 · 20/09/2018 22:19

Cellardoor23 · 21/09/2018 20:12

I'm also very tempted to buy that dinosaur lamp..

Cellardoor23 · 21/09/2018 20:17

Which reminds me of a picture I have.
