Share with me your recent retail therapy.

I bought these fairy lights from Cable and Cotton. I love the glow they've bought to my kitchen.

I got my lo’s 2 huge bags of second hand books on FB marketplace (30+ chapter books - Jacqueline Wilson, Cathy Cassidy, Micheal Morpurgno etc) for £10 and the seller delivered them for me.

I was so excited with my bargain I promptly spent ££ on Waterstones online for books for myself Blush.

We got our Border collie back in June when he was ten weeks old.
He has brought so much joy in a rotten year.

It was a Christmas present, but a Kitchen Aid stand mixer. I'm in love!

Anotherlovelybitofsquirrel · 17/01/2021 19:39

@Walkley18 that is beautiful! Well done. I want to do this!

katy1213 · 17/01/2021 19:39

Bunch of daffs, first of the year. And a St Eval candle that smells like a forest.

BitchIAmFromChicago · 17/01/2021 19:42

My white company electric diffuser. The house smells amazing!

Le creuset signature casserole.

I didn't have it in for more than half an hour before I had already started using it. 😊

PenOrPencil · 17/01/2021 19:54

I got myself a set of Himalayan salt lamps. I love them, the living room feels very serene when they are lit, although the whole ion air purification or whatever they are supposed to do is probably bollocks.

SaltyTootsieToes · 17/01/2021 19:56

Pasta machine and a kitchen blow torch thingy. I’ve made pasta 3x now and really enjoy the challenge. Can’t wait to try out a recipe to use the blow torch thing.

LunaNorth · 17/01/2021 19:58

Thanks to this thread I’m currently under a heated throw - and two dogs, who love it even more than I do!

Frazzlefrazle · 17/01/2021 19:58

I bought a bookshelf for our living room and after a shuffle of the room today ots so lovely.

I also bought a paddle board (arriving tomorrow) perfect for this snow haha! However I spent all last summer wishing I had one and now I do!

HermioneWeasley · 17/01/2021 19:59

Stand mixer

Costacoffeeplease · 17/01/2021 20:00

A few - hotel chocolat velvetiser
Original oil painting which is on its way to me at the moment
Mulberry shoes that I got in the sale and just love

LunaNorth · 17/01/2021 20:01

Oops, it must have been another thread.

In that case, a heated throw. It’s blissful.

Carysmatthews · 17/01/2021 20:01

@Walkley18

I also bought some amazing Moroccan lights for conservatory, not pictured, and embroidery kit to have a go, first time in 30 years. Finished result pictured, and have ordered two further patterns.
This is beautiful 💐

Can I ask where that kit was from, please?

We took on a rescue dog just before Christmas. I can’t tell you how much we love him and how much joy he has brought us.
HarrietSchulenberg · 17/01/2021 20:03

I ordered Chris Riddell's The Sleep Of Reason vol. 2 a few weeks ago and not only did it arrive on Friday but I'd ordered early enough to get a signed copy, 3 postcards and a hand drawn sketch. I love Chris Riddell's work so this made me very happy indeed.
