I have no idea what this thing is, your description tells me nothing, it's like that bit in Speed 2 where Willem Dafoe uses a 'fibre optic convertor'. ;)

Ahaha apologies...it's a diffuser that emits water vapour into the atmosphere. You add a few drops of essential oil into the water and it makes your room smell really nice and has many health benefits too depending on the type of essential oil you use.
It's kinda like a scented candle.

Lol have you never seen them before? Tbh only place I seem to see it is in Muji shops but they are so expensive there.

Oooooh that's a tricky one. I'd probably get to either of these from that as a sample:

Probably the darker half actually.

What did you go with?

Not far off that actually

Took me strawberry floating ages to make my mind up so I stopped doing that on Fiverr.

Yeah Yankee Candles are good but I prefer to use them in the winter months.

I like the fitting bedding. Maybe you should open a hotel or b&b to display your coin collection and Eiffel Towers ;)

I've tried using a number of different backgrounds when doing this stuff, but my Sanderson duvet cover always works best. :)

If you really want to make sure you never lose your keys then get an original XBOX as a keyring - that thing was a beast!

I've never really been into key rings - the only one I have is a My Little Pony one that my daughter wanted me to use years ago and I don't feel like I can take it off now! :lol:

Picked up this neat little set to add to my collection from the Bath coin shop...



It's not often you find sets like this which feature The Pope.

Mario, Gundam, Monster Hunter and Overwatch tees from Uniqlo :fp: Managed to resist the urge to get an Avengers and Star Wars one too. I think today is the last day of the 2 for £19.90 offer thank strawberry float.
