Enormous pair of curtains (Summertown OX2)
Gifted
Natural calico, but unfortunately have got mildew spots during storage and I’m not sure if this can be cleaned off so I am giving them away for use as dust sheets if not reclaimable as curtains. They were from a large bay window so there’s plenty of useful material.

Sofa loose covers (Summertown OX2)
Loose covers for the two sofas shown in the pictures – the sofas are not included! The fabric colour is fairly well represented by the first photo. Unfortunately we do not seem to have the cushion covers, but if I find them, I will add them to this post. Otherwise there’s an opportunity for mix and match loose covers or alternatively some very good fabric for other purposes.

Replacement kitchen unit drawer (Summertown OX2)
Gifted
This is brand-new – a stainless steel basket which replaces a traditional drawet so that you can have tall items in the drawer underneath it and still use the space occupied by the middle drawer. It’s a great idea – it was intended to go round the kitchen sink, but I changed my kitchen design and the manufacturer would not accept return of this

V strong cardboard tube (Summertown OX2)
Withdrawn
This was the centre of a roll of fabric – it is very strong and for someone who wants a cylindrical former, or store fabric or many other uses, this is ideal. Needs to go quickly though because I need the space. I have two more thinner ones also

Patio umbrella (Summertown OX2)
Gifted
A few years old but the frame and winding and tilt mechanisms are all perfect. As you can see, the canopy needs mending or a replacement one finding – these seem to be available for up to £30 on eBay.

Emulsion Paint (Summertown OX2)

2 or 3 litres of brilliant white emulsion paint. It’s been in the loft for some time but it’s been sealed and I imagine it’s usable with a good stir.

Sofa loose covers (Summertown OX2)

Good used condition but we had a change of style. The pics of the sofas show the size of the old loose covers. We are NOT giving away the sofas! One a two seater and the other a three seater. I hope I will find the cushion covers also and I will add them to this post

Kitchen sink drawer units (Summertown OX2)
Withdrawn
Due to design change, these brand-new under-sink drawers for a 900 mm kitchen sink cupboard are available. They are on soft close runners. There is a bottom deep drawer with glass sides and a stainless steel basket drawer which fits around the sink and plumbing. The top layer is a blanking plate to hide your sink. It’s an excellent storage facility which is why we planned it into our kitchen, but in the event we chose a sink which was the wrong shape! The fronts are not included - you would want fronts to match your kitchen anyway. They are standard size drawer fronts from DIY Kitchens.We are keeping them as spares for our other drawer units It’s a brilliant bit of kit if it fits your sink!
