Red felt covered pinboard (Craigleith EH4)
This pinboard has a red felt surface. It is very light and the two triangular hooks make it easy to hold up with a couple of picture hooks or similar. Fair condition. Milk bottle for size, but I can measure it if you want the exact size.

Curtains, 2 pairs (Comiston EH10)
Two pairs of more or less identical curtains, much used. They are in the same colour (a pale cream/beige) and design (plain apart from an embroidered recurring geometric image), unlined and fairly lightweight. Each of the four curtains is about 165cm wide and has a height (drop) of about 145cm. The top is taped for what I believe is "pencil pleat" use, so it needs plastic hooks to fit into it.

HP printer - Photosmart plus B209 (Liberton EH16)
All-in-one printer/scanner/copier. Had this working with Windows 11 but couldn't get it to load some 'compatible' black cartridges. Had used compatible cartridges multiple times previously without issue and strongly suspect installing a proper HP black cartridge will get this working again but have moved on to a tank printer. Have various compatible cartridges to go with this.

car seat storage/carry bag or for repurposing (Craigmount EH12)
This is a strong canvas type bag for storing or carrying a child's car seat around in (the group 1/2/3 size). It has a big zip opening at the bottom and you pop it over the car seat and zip it closed. Good if you are storing your car seat somewhere a bit dusty, or if you're taking your car seat somewhere. We used it to take our car seat abroad (cheaper and more reassuring than hiring one with a car). Could also be repurposed for something else - the material is strong and seems to have a waterproof coating inside,
