Free: Cheeky Sequin.Pillow (Ballard) Gifted Naughty phrase printed on reversible gold/white sequins. A great fidget toy that has lost its novelty with us. Casual quality (not very firm, more of a toy/decor than a support pillow). This is a regift of an item we have enjoyed for a little while (was an amusing holiday gift), but it's not really our main temperament/theme. It was fun to reveal or hide letters (e.g. "F*ck Hate"). Since we hadn't changed it from fully gold in a while, I checked, and it's time for its next home. Posting just in time to start gathering dorm decor for students next fall!

Free: Angel candle (Ballard) Gifted Hand painted wax decorative candle. It has a distressed motif like ancient archaeology ruins, and a few tiny scrapes in the journeys that only add to its charm. Was a sentimental symbol for us of the bridge between family and chosen family. Now the message is within our hearts, and this Angel is ready to be a messenger of love again, in a new home. Please share as you are moved about how this candle/art could bring love and recognition or acknowledgement of support, kindness, love, grace, etc. into your life. No need to write an essay, it's just that this has been a positive anchor of love and hope and friendship and has such good energy to it, so an "interested" reply won't help us pass this special thing to its next special place.

Free: Kalanchoe propagation colonies (Ballard) Gifted Are you a Kalanchoe plant whisperer? These aren't my niche. I adopted them as stragglers and, while much improved with proper lighting and constrained watering since I received them, I just don't have the inspiration to continue their lineage -- even though I just repotted them! What I was told is that they have hot pink or yellow flowers. They are dwarf variety. Freecycle teaches me to feel where the abundance will thrive, and let go, *even when I just invested* in something. I have been forcing these rescues to seek re-rooting and generate new explorer/daughter roots. Just repotted with a drainage substrate, then mostly lighly-amended (compost) general-purpose good drainage soil, and a top layer of rich mycelial soil-improvement dirt (Rosy brand). This was to give them an enrichment time with nutrient boost before snip-snipping them to shreds, to make hardy propagation cuttings. But..I just don't love Kalanchoes, and we're all excited about other projects already underway here. We don't have room for me to make abundant kalanchoes. You? Freshly repotted, ready for a new guiding plant hobbyist hand! Pick up by mutually confirmed handoff appointment (urban apartments on a major street= no porch pickups, no surprise drop-ins).

Free: Bodyweight scale (Ballard loyal heights) Gifted Bodyweight digital scale 1990's ERA? Plastic body, but has endured decades of use and works perfectly. Slim and lightweight. Easy to maneuver and can be stored vertically. Non slip feet for safety. Runs (for several years?) on single CR2032 lithium battery. (If we find a spare, I will include.) 3 minor cosmetic scratches on foot pads. Measurements reported in 0.5 lb increments. I think it was designed in the days of weight loss research that showed 0.1 lb increments were demotivating due to (everyone's) naturally fluctuating numbers. But if you are a data analysis geek, this scale may not be fine enough detail for your project. Pickup by confirmed handoff appointment. Preference to NW Ballard neighbors (say where you are coming from in your request). Delivery available of you are in walkable distance. No porch for unattended pickups here, sorry! This item is crossposted to help us connect with a nearby neighbor, but if response is low, could be anyone chosen.

Free: IKEA Stocksund sofa cover (NEW) (Ballard loyal heights) Gifted Regift. Custom-sized for IKEA couch. We tried matching for several non-IKREA neighborhood couches and haven't found a fit. We never will, because It is NOT A SLIP COVER but a custom encasement for the IKEA couch that restores it to newly-upholstered appearance using tight tucks, good zippers, and very strong, wide and generous strategic Velcro. It may work with other IKEA models, but I cannot help you determine that. Rumor has it that it is also washable. New condition, no odors, new in re-box. NW Ballard pickup by mutually-confirmed appointment time for handoff (no porch, urban apartment complex).

Request: LED Light Therapy Device (Ballard loyal heights) Expired For lower back, leg and neck pain. A unit with a bending surface would be most useful, but a flat plate is also fine. Can borrow and return after 60 days if preferred. (Please see feedback/profile: reliable loaning!) If you do not need it back, I can hold on to it until someone else in the community has a need.

Request: Nylon Grocery Sack/bags (Ballard loyal heights) Expired Seeking nylon grocery sacks that can be collapsed into tiny stuff-sacks that are attached inside the big bag. Solids and patterns are both great, but if you have too many and don't know which to give, most especially useful are Blue/Teal, Green/Lime, Red/Rose/Burgundy, White, Pink/Peach, and patterned. Specific colors isn't just about fashion - I use a color coded system to separate items for delivery to clients I serve from the food bank. Blue for Frozen, White for sundry, Green for produce, red for refridgerated, Multicolor/Patterns for pantry. Pink/Peach for pets. This helps me speed through deliveries, get from house to house quickly, and allows those with neurodiverse mental engagement step in to help unload their stuff with me. It also helps me "shop" the food bank faster for everyone because I know exactly where to sort things without having to think it over.

Free: 2 IKEA Twin Matttress (Sunset Hill) (Ballard loyal heights) Gifted Moving gift! Two IKEA foam mattresses. These fold in half (or roll up) for convenient transport. Giving away because we only used them for parties. These two medium-firm foam twin size mattresses have been in basement storage since the pandemic. They were once used to turn a living room floor into a lounge space for cuddle parties (very occasional use), no smoking, no pets, No scent boosters. They can be used for a hemnes style twin-to-king daybed (we used a king fitted sheet to make a large cuddle pile area of them). Or you can stack them atop one another for a twin bed for someone who likes less firm support than they offer in one layer. They are in nearly-excellent condition. They have a bit of "stored too long" smell, which should clear up well if you remove the padded covers and launder them, and let the foam cores air out for a few days. You've saved yourself $300 of buying new ones. We'd like these picked up together but will consider requests for only one if two or more people respond. Dropping off (delivery) is unlikely but might be possible on a day we have a truck rented. f you are on our route between Sunset Hill and Shoreline, we might be able to deliver. If you want delivery, please reply with your street address, and understand that (1) pickup offers will pick first, (2) most addresses are too out of the way of our route, delivery agreement is contingent on mileage and schedule coordination. In your reply, include: A) if you want one or two mattresses B) when you want to pick up, or where you want delivery if available. We will begin with messages on the Trash-nothing website/app. I will try to reply to all promptly HERE, I will not text you a response, not until someone is chosen and agreed here via Trashnothing.
