So like the majority of the country, I love Ikea and purchase many of my household goods there. Not only is it great for a bargain but they also sell some really nice pictures, rugs, cushions, and many other 'pretty things' to make the house look nice but not serve much other purpose. Well I suppose rugs protect the carpet and cushions provide comfort....but still let's me honest their number one purpose is to look nice.
As I own about a bahzillion items from Ikea I'll just choose favourite thing to talk about, which is the SOLMRYA range of pictures.
These include this lovely owl picture:
which always gets compliments from people when they come round.
And this doorbell one which is the latest one I've purchased and my personal favourite:
There are currently six in the range and they can be viewed here: http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/search/?query=solmyra
At £11.99 each I think they're well worth it!

Best one I've found sofar.
So this isn't something I've actually bought, just something I've been admiring...
Firstly I really wanted a patchwork sofa after seeing a gorgeous one on Hollyoaks, I tracked one down which was just like it but it cost over £4000....so I decided to think again!
This one still isn't cheap but it's a lot more affordable at £1395. When I say affordable, obviously I will still have to save my pennies! I like how patriotic it is too, I found it at http://www.idukpatriot.co.uk/ambrowCart/shop/show_details.php?ref=Olio

GiffGaff is Not Naff
So the other week I got a new phone, and with it I decided to ditch the contract and go for a GiffGaff Sim card, which I'd been reading a lot about. I'm really glad I went for it!
First off you order a Sim card on the GiffGaff website which arrives quickly and then you activate it online.
Rather than a contract, you order a monthly 'goodybag' or credit online (not much point in the credit as the goodybags are way more worthwhile. I currently order the £10 goodybag which lasts a month and gives me unlimited texts and internet, and 250 minutes. There are other goodybags and the amount of minutes you get is reflected in the price, but they're all excellent value for money.
Your goodbag lasts the month, it runs out, you buy a new one, or not. That's one of the great things, it's not a contract so you can just miss a month if you want, or stop buying them altogether, at any time. You can also switch to a different goodybag each month.
GiffGaff runs on the o2 network and I always have great signal. Something to remember is that you have to put your sim in an unlocked phone, but that's easily sorted. You can keep your old number if you get the PUK code and transfer it over.
If you decide to order a GiffGaff sim card it would be great if you could use my referral link: http://giffgaff.com/orders/affiliate/ljackson24 as then you get a free fiver credit and I do too, everyone's a winner.

Skulleroo
I bought this purse a few weeks ago in Pylones (my all time favourite shop!) and people comment on it all the time. I knew I would buy it as soon as I saw it, it's really me! Love the skulls and the fact it's all different colours, plus it's quite big with loads of compartments so it's practical too.
It cost £22 and is really good quality and seems as though it will last ages.
It comes in several other patterns too, and they're all lovely. You can see and buy them all here: http://www.pylones.com/produit.php?pid=2484&num=4

Marvel...ous PJ's!
OK, so first up are these PJ bottoms I found in Asda of all places. They're 'Marvel' and feature Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Captain America, and The Mighty Thor...and they're pretty cool.
At a mere tenner I couldn't resist them and they're so comfy too! They're men's Pyjamas but come in sizes Small, Medium, Large, X Large, and XX Large so they'll probably fit most people.
You can view/buy them here: http://direct.asda.com/george/mens-lounge-pants/marvel-lounge-pants/GEM140672,default,pd.html
I also spied a Muppets version and a Disney version too!
