Nicholas Mosse pottery because I’m addicted to collecting it!

Cushions. I adore them. They satisfy my love of textiles and layering, and can easily change the vibe of the room.

Clothes pegs. I have no idea why we have so many but we could peg out the whole street's laundry in one go. Wooden, cheap plastic, fancy plastic, storm proof, we have the lot.

BarbarianBabs · 05/04/2026 22:18

Lots of leads and cables for musical equipment, and lots of books.

Jellycats. There must be over 200 in our house. I do love them but it’s too many, and most are put away because who has room

Also 6 tv’s - there is just the two of us.

Blankets! I have banned my girls from buying any more blankets unless they get rid of some. They have always loved blankets but the amount of them we have is getting ridiculous

also lip balm. So much lip balm

I am with you on the blankets, I don't even remember buying them, or needing them.😁

Candles. I had an obsession a few years ago after receiving one as a Christmas gift, and then 5 years followed where I couldn't stop buying them.

Sgtmajormummy · 06/04/2026 08:47

Stationery and writing equipment.
All good quality and bought over time so we forget and buy some more. I have a bureau with drawers and pigeonholes full of the stuff that I use as a wrapping station…
Our next holiday includes a trip to a factory shop!
