Guest bed/wide fold-up bed (folded it's 88 x 85 x 62cm) (Gilmerton EH17)
A well loved but still good condition and clean fold-out/fold up bed and seater, now looking for a caring new home :) The base is a versatile wooden frame on metal legs, rolls smoothly and so it is easy to open and fold. I also have the seat-shaped black material that can go over it when it is folded up to keep it nicely together and present it as a comfortable seater (without arm rests). The cushioning/mat is easy to clean and is a medium gray colour. Its thickness is 10 cm, medium firm/no springs inside. Dimensions are as follows: overall height is 88 cm width is 85 cm folded-up depth 62 cm sitting surface is 60 x 85 cm opened to a bed its height is 40 cm like that its length is 172 cm (width is the same 85 cm). space under the seat is 29 cm height. + I have an office chair with wheels and arm rests matching in style so you are welcome to take that too if with the fold-up bed if you like it. Collection flexible (but Thursdays cannot do before 5.30pm). Other than a vehicle that is able to accommodate it, it doesn't require special transport arrangements. No stairs to climb. (I cannot help with the lifting but can cheer you on :) ) Thanks Have a nice day

Home and crafts/DIY book (Edinburgh EH17)
KIRSTIE'S HOMEMADE HOME The art of home and crafts, room by room. by Kirstie Allsopp (2010) ''Home is about a journey the author made into a world which she thought she knew, but didn't. It's a world full of dedicated and talented people in England who make beautiful things, both traditional and modern that support the wonderful crafting heritage they have in the UK. If, like her, you have ever been caught at a yard sale or antiques market and couldn't keep control of your purse, or if you're curious and want to have a rummage for the first time, then this book is for you. It's Kirstie's experience of a world which is as vast and varied as you can possibly imagine. It's about women and men who are ensuring that handmade British things are here to stay. And it's packed with their expert advice on creating your own homemade home. If you enjoyed the TV series, then the book takes it one step further with her advice on interior décor, plus the shops and websites that have transformed her life. If you didn't see the show, then welcome to her world. It's a book for mothers and daughters, and trust me, sons. If you're looking for a new hobby, there is nothing more manly than blacksmithing or glassblowing, and few projects more satisfying than flower arranging or mini cake decoration. Or if you just want a moment to yourself and something lovely to look at'' Hardcover, lots of beautiful colour photos + crafts/DIY directory, 220 pages, mainly comfort print with some large print pages and some smaller size fonts Looking for a good, useful new home :) Flexible collection times (but Thursday afternoons cannot do before 5.30pm). Literally, Lillum
