While the children nap, I curl up in bed to read, write…or buy things on Amazon…
THESE SLIPPERS LOOK LIKE HEAVEN
FALL PUZZLE — THIS BRAND IS INCREDIBLE
THESE VINTAGE FLOURSACK KITCHEN TOWELS GET RAVE REVIEWS AND COME IN THE MOST FUN PRINTS; I LOVE THE BERRY PATCH ONES!
CABLEKNIT TIGHTS FOR LITTLE ONES IN PERFECT COLORS
I ALWAYS KEEP A FEW OF THESE ON HAND TO STASH IN MY PURSE FOR EMERGENCIES WITH MINI — INEXPENSIVE AND KEEP HER ENTERTAINED
HAD TO BUY THESE BUNNY SLIPPERS FOR MINI
THE BEST SPICE JARS — A FEW YEARS AGO, I STARTED DECANTING ALL OF OUR SPICES INTO THESE FROM BAGGIES (WE USUALLY BUY SPICES IN BULK FROM KALUSTUYAN’S HERE IN NY OR SPICE HOUSE IN CHICAGO, SO THEY COME IN BAGGIES); I LABEL THE TOPS WITH MY LABELMAKER AND THEN ORGANIZE THEM INTO THESE BINS, WHICH ARE MARKED A-M, N-Z
GOOD CLOTHING/BEDDING STORAGE SOLUTION FOR OUT-OF-SEASON (REVIEWS ARE STRONG)
THIS WHITE FAUX FUR STOOL IS PERFECT FOR A TEEN’S ROOM
LAST YEAR, THESE WELL REVIEWED AND AFFORDABLE CHILDREN’S THERMALS SOLD OUT IN A FLASH – ALREADY ORDERED MINI THE FLORAL SET FOR LAYERING UNDER SNOWSUIT
HAD NEVER HEARD OF GLUE DOTS BEFORE (!) — BOUGHT THESE AND SOME HALLOWEEN THEMED POMS/GOOGLY EYES FOR MINI’S CLASS TO DECORATE TINY PUMPKINS!
THANKS TO A MAGPIE READER, USING THESE STURDY POUCHES FOR EVERYTHING THESE DAYS, FROM STOWING MINI’S FACE SHIELD IN HER BACKPACK TO ORGANIZING GAMES/TOYS WITH LOTS OF LITTLE PARTS
P.S. In a similar vein: affordable little girls finds for under $30 and affordable little boy finds for (mostly) under $22.
P.P.S. Easily my favorite recent bargain fashion snags: this $59 houndstooth skirt, which I’ll pair with Gucci tights and a black turtleneck sweater, and this $35 padded headband. Eee!!! Fall!
P.P.P.S. ICYMI: I wrote fiction!
