You can never have enough...

I got a heap of wee parcels this morning from my Trademe frittering over the long weekend, such fun opening them to see what was as described and what might not be. Only one disappointment this week which isn't a bad score considering what I did with the budget! One of the parcels - a piece of linen I want to back a cushion - came wrapped in a very retro pillowcase, pink with screaming purple florals bound with lengths of hot pink ribbon - the seller obviously had a lot of amusement with that one! And useful too, as a friend gave me a hint about machine washing my Skechers, to put them inside a pillowcase to stop them thumping around loose among the towels. So that will be the pink floral's fate in life seeing I'd rather not use one of my white cottons - I may run a drawstring through a channel at the top to make it even more secure, with the pink ribbon perhaps!

I do enjoy Trademe, although it is certainly not the same place it was when the boards were up and running. Not nearly as busy these days either, which makes for some good bargains down in the cheap seats where I lurk...
