Default Recent Purchases

I thought it would be a good idea if we had a spot to share our recent purchases. Not all purchases are worthy of a thread on their own but we all love a good sticky so go ahead and add yours.

Here are a my recent purchases:

Some new cushions for our lounge http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI....E:L:OU:AU:1123

Two trays from Ezibuy. I was thinking the black one would be good on our kitchen bench for our car keys/mobiles etc. I'm not sure where I'm going to use the mirrored one but it was too pretty to pass up.

Very nice purchases nqmummy. I love that mirror tray.

So these are my recent purchases for my kitchen.
My next purchase will be about 75 liriope plants - not quite as exciting

I love seeing what people buy and where from. Can't beat online shopping!

Love your basket JA, looks lovely. Love the blue in your cushions nqmummy and also the idea of keys etc in one of the trays. I use three trays in my family room for hot drinks etc as we don't have a coffee table, I mod podged scrap booking paper onto the base and painted them white. I've seen blogs put a nice piece of wallpaper on the base of trays like your black one

I've been looking at these Butler's Tray for months for my bedroom but still can't find a bed.

Here is my cushions and throw I picked up today, I purchased the throw to pretty much help protect my sofa from my little people, and the cushions I got for $10.

Ive slowly starting to get use to them, Still havent got my pictures framed yet, Im very slowly slowly getting little bits.

Ive done a close up pic of the red felt cushions as this is my favourite.

I bought this gorgeous (I think) ginger pot about a month ago ... stands about 90cm high. Plan is to put into the family room when it's finished.
