What I want to buy versus what I need to buy......house/gardenwise

[Smowball]

I want to buy a big silver mirror and large fluffy rug for my lounge, but I need to replace my garden table and chairs.

I want to buy new blonds for my bedroom and bathroom, but I need to replace my collapsed dressing table and stool!

I want to buy lots of different sized garden pots, all mediterranean colours, but I need to get my hall and stair carpet steam cleaned.

Oh to have the money to do it all......

[ummmm]

Not bad choices though. Some people can't afford to do any of them.

[mccfluff]

new blonds for your bedroom?? is this for hubby?

[tenrec]

That is so true. There is a big difference between need and want.

[craft1948]

I'd buy the mirror and rug.............let's face it in this country how many times can you sit outside.
I'd go for the new dressing table as it's obviously vital for doing the hair and slap.
Have the hall and stair carpet cleaned as otherwise you may appear to be dirty and shallow.

[tenrec]

mcfluff, I think that is the wrong way round.

[ChuckFickens]

I wouldn't mind some new blondes for my bedroom too!

[tenrec]

That would be a necessity wouldn't it Chuck?

[Smowball]

blonds!!! oh for gods sake lol - BLINDS!! : )

[rowanwitch]

I want to buy new lounge furniture, a fitted office for the second bedroom/workroom, a new kitchen, new birdwatching optics, a new camera, and pay for the wedding.... and a new set of containers for the balcony

I need storage space in the office area... more storage in the kitchen.... and to pay for the wedding....

Redman would like some new blonds as well (I expect)

Forget the garden furniture, it's going to be a wet summer!

[ummmm]

Apparently is going to be BBQ summer.

[Smowball]

I heard BBQ weather as well. Our garden is a total suntrap, and we have raised decking at the end, where the garden furniture is. When its dry we spend every evening out there

[mccfluff]

brollies, bums and quavers

[Misky]

I was shopping the other day and was stood gazing at gorgeous shoes. A girl came over and asked could she help - what was I looking for? I had to admit, I was actually supposed to be looking for a present for my brother-in-law... What I wanted to buy and what I needed to buy were completely different!

[Smowball]

mcfluff - is that your want or need list!!? : )

[mccfluff]

bbq

[albaqwerty]

sugarflumps. I was so hoping for blonds in the bedroom (there's too many greys)

Stuff the garden bits, a blanket and a picnic basket would suffice surely?

[emmie]

new blonds, didn't know you could buy them in Homebase..
