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.....

I don't suppose you fancy the wallet or journal for the PJ's?

Justoneday if what danger mouse has offered doesn’t interest you, would you like a neom hand balm (scent to sleep) in exchange for the pyjamas?

@Moltenpink just checked & the box says medium Confused. Although it looks very pale to me (this said by a very pale irish person so I really mean it's pale haha). It seems to be the same colour as an ancient translucent powder I used to use before my skin became dry and definitely not in need of further drying out by powder. I've included a pic of it in case you've not seen the shade before but if it's too dark not to worry. Maybe one day my skin will be more hydrated so I can use it! Haha I don't suppose any of my other bits of any interest?

Have had a final sort through & these are the final things I received that I won't use. In addition to my previous list a few posts ago of various stationary bits & make up bits.

-lanvin marry me perfume set with body lotion
-freshwater pearl earrings (sterling silver) from Laura Ashley. The pearls are white but are photographing darker for some reason.

  • metal bracelet style watch with diamantes around the face and at each number. Doesn't have a brand on the face of it although feels & looks substantial. Tag just says it's a self adjustable strap.
  • don't know if it's breaking the rules slightly as it's not a 2017 Christmas gift but I have come across a Filofax brand saffiano a5 purple/raspberry organiser I got for my 2017 birthday so it has 2017 pages although I have the 2018 refill pack. It's just sat in the box since being received. I wanted a proper Filofax forever but then found the spirals impossible to write with (left handed issues...).

Justoneday if I was lucky enough to be a size 8 I'd snap your hand off for the pj set!

BernardsarenotalwaysSaints · 02/01/2018 18:14

I have these. The purse isn't to my taste (& the dc gave me a lovely one) & my name doesn't begin with an 'N'.

I still have a pair of medium purple leather m&s gloves. Would swap for candles, truffles or nice chocolate, filofax or address book, soap, shower gel.

Hareinthewoods · 02/01/2018 19:15

TheWelshDragon would you consider swapping the gloves for either a body shop mango set containing soap, shower gel, body butter and body scrub or an M&S Royal Jelly set with similar products? I did try to add photos but I have uploaded too many today. I did post the photos earlier today if you want to look up thread.

FrankiesKnuckle · 02/01/2018 19:57

I have a VR viewer (no I'm not sure what it is either)

Will swap for anything!

Not really interested in creams/lotions as have eczema/allergies....

FrankiesKnuckle · 02/01/2018 19:59

This.

Country mouse, I’d love the Filofax pls!! What kind of thing would you like in return? I’ll have a dig around.

aristocat · 02/01/2018 20:32

Anyone want Olay?

I have an Olay Regenerist pot which is sealed in its box or Olay Total Effects 7 in 1 which is new but unboxed.

Still have the Dove set too Smile

Jo malone pear and freesiabath oil (30ml)

CountryMouseCityMouse · 02/01/2018 21:09

@Leicesterpiggott

You mean the actual Filofax brand one I have rather than the gold glittery non brand one? I have so much stationary i lose track Blush

I've tried to attach a photo but apparently I've met my limit for the day...Annoying! I can upload one tomorrow if you're still interested. But it's called "raspberry saffiano" so you can google the colour. I now can't find the 2018 refill pages but I know I have them here somewhere amongst the hoards of things so will hunt them out! I'm mainly looking for house things like any decorative bits/candles (basically on a mission to find little things to decorate a very bare looking set of shelves in our living room..) but also any size 8/10 PJ's or lounge type things. I realise that is quite specific so probably not particularly helpful of me haha but I am willing to consider anything except bath things and edibles so let me know what bits you've got that you won't use and I can have a think. Smile

FieryWill · 02/01/2018 21:32

@DownHereInTheHorridHouse I have Shay and Blue Blood Orange perfume if you'd be interested in swapping for the Rodial Dragon's Blood at all? Smile

Moltenpink · 02/01/2018 21:48

@Country I’m the palest of pales so medium no good, would be happy to swap for watch or earrings if still available? I’m feeling the need to trade something with you!

I have soap and glory box of 8 travel wash pods, and a set of 3 Vaseline balms in a large storage tin, if anybody wants them?

CountryMouseCityMouse · 02/01/2018 23:56

@Littlejayx what kind of thing are you hoping to trade for your number 7 set?

Harvestwidow · 03/01/2018 00:29

@CountryMouseCityMouse I would love the gold 'filofax and the sleek brows but I don't have anything to swap (unless you'd like a baby or a dog Wink) any chance you would consider selling them to me instead?
