[...] this post from September when I confessed a little obsession I had? I’d been dreaming of a certain tea [...]

Patchwork and quilting – have been for almost 20 years.

R.E.M. – I LOVE them – have done for almost (only) 5 years.

Laboratory bottles – have collected since I was a teenager but have taken it up again seriously this past year.

These vases http://www.skovsantiques.com/Lyngby%20vaser%20hvide%20riller.JPG the kind without motifs. This obession is quite recent – in fact it started a little over a week ago. I decided that I was going to collect them and before I knew it I had won five auctions and the first one should arrive by mail tomorrow. I’m so excited. :-)

I can’t say that I’m obsessed with TineK but I have recently discovered that she’s not so bad. Here’s a link to her website where yu can download her catalogue with pictures from her own home: http://www.tinekhome.dk/www/index.htm

I have also become obsessed with knitting again. I used to knit many years ago but patchwork and quilting took over. These past 3-4 years my love of knitting has returned. Ravelry – http://www.ravelry.com/ – is a wonderful place.

Oh and flowers. And decorating of course. And geraniums!

And I suppose I’m also obsessed with the Internet, blogs and my computer. I’m certainly very much in love with my laptop. ;-)

That does bring me to one of the things I have been obsessing over a bit.. well, a bit actually meaning quite a lot since Le Souk was originally posted on here.. Moroccan pouffes and wedding blankets. I’ve been looking for about 4 or 5 months now.. I really want a round white/off white pouffe and would quite fancy a soft pink wedding blanket (pouffe moreso). I feel a bit like a cheapy, but I’m working two jobs just to make ends meet, so I only want to pay no more than around $100. $75 being ideal.. Ebay never has them though.

With that I’m also obsessing over a white Eames lounger and light blue Eames Rocker. Moreso the lounger. I feel very guilty, because I always believe in supporting designers, but if I get one any time soon it’ll be a knockoff. I lie and tell myself “Well, I’m supporting the design!” but I still feel a bit bad. One day I will get a real one, but for now I’ll probally need to settle for a fake…

Since working at Debenhams I’ve been obsessing over a red Orla Keily bag.. it’s 109 pounds though, but would love it for my laptop since I think it’s the right size.. the bag I made myself for my laptop just doesn’t protect it well enough or have enough pockets.. but 109 quid? That’s $220 Canadian.. which is alot of money.

Oh, and Russian nesting dolls. I really want a cute big one. My Mum got me a tiny one (about an inch tall) with 5 dolls in it.. but I still want a big one. At around 20 pounds ($40) in John Lewis I feel quite hesitant.

I would also like a lomography or polaroid camera (one that prints out the photos right away) but again, money is currently an object. Boo.

I could probally babble for awhile.. I love moroccan things.. I recently bought a large round brass tea table with a stand for 75 pounds, which, upon looking online, I found was a pretty good deal.

Yeah, that’s mostly it along with the usual suspects, vintage furniture with tapered pin legs (okay, vintage everything), bright coloured tights, bright coloured faux pearl necklaces, everything with owls, everything Eleanor Grosch, just about everything from Urban Outfitters (I know, it’s silly, but the American site has beautiful furniture, and I drool over all of it and wish they’d ship to the UK, my new home).. milkglass ceramics.. tea, teacups, antiques and antique stores..

Awe, man, I was going to write something short here. Sorry guys.

@Terri: Wellies are big here in England. If you wait to come here, Primark sells them very cheap with a few patterns. You can get them anywhere, really. Zebra/white tiger print is very common.

I know what you mean about Ikea. I get their catalogs and flip thru them religiously finding new jems each time!
