Timberlux Venetian Blinds 1.97m w x 1.56m h (Highams Park E4)
Promised
We've just taken down these blinds to replace them with something else. They were working fine, so you should be able to errect them somewhere else. There are actually 3 blinds, one of them wider than the others. I didn't take a picture before taking them down, so I took a pic of a blind from the same brand that was still up. We've just moved in, and half the rooms have these blinds.

Well-used sofabed (Bethnal Green E2)
Withdrawn
1.7m long by 0.9m deep by 0.8 meters tall, extends to a double bed as shown in pics. It's very worn, has a broken part of the frame (shown) and needs a very good wash. It's going to bulk waste collection on Tuesday, but if anyone else can make some use of it, please do.

Vintage green metal packing case (Bethnal Green E2)
Gifted
This is a battered vintage twentieth century packing case. You can see the original bright green colour on the inside, but it's been worn down to almost black in time. The lid doesn't entirely fit. It has handles on each side. We've been keeping blankets in it, but are having a clearout before a house move & letting it go. It is 32cm high, 52cm deep, and 80cm wide.

Scotia Trim (for edge of floor) (Bethnal Green E2)

Region 1 DVDs & Blue-ray - Disney, Costume, Harry Potter &c (Bethnal Green E2)
Gifted
We gave away our regionless DVD player only to realise that the Playstation can't play Region 1 DVDs. So we're giving most of them away. Full listings in pics. They are in summary: 7 x Disney * Mermaid * Frozen * Jungle book, &c 4 x Harry Potter 3 x Pirates of the Carribean 5 x Costume Drama (including 2 versions of Pride & Prejudice) 8 x classic movies Plus Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, which I'm not sure how to classify. I'd favour someone who can take all of it, or at least a pile, and give away what theye don't want. But if "Love Actually" ends up in the trash, I won't be too sad.

Babybub preganancy pillow set (E2)
Expired
Babybub pregancy pillows. Didn't work for my wife, may work for someone else. The zip broke on one of the pillow covers - so you can either put up with that, use another cover, or fix it. We removed the stuffing on the smaller pillow to wash it, and the idea is also that you can add or remove stuffing as needed.

Fisher Price Butterfly Dreams Projection Mobile (E2)
Gifted
We were handed on this projection mobile from a friend, and did not end up using it.* It has some wear and tear, as you can see. The mobile (which I have now found) has teddy bear angels. *(Because we have a very young baby, who is more likely to be stimulated by patterns projected onto the ceiling than sent to sleep by them.)

Interlocking drawers 163mm h x 287w x 320d (Bethnal Green E2)
Gifted
Two freestanding drawers originally designed for floppy disks and CDs. They have customisable internal dividers. They'd be useful for organising anything small and flat - postcards, collectable game cards, and of course music CDs or computer games. The model is TP-200L. They were originally lockable but I lost the key, sorry! They are interlocking and could be rearranged to be side by side; as you can see I set them up one on top of the other.

Bag of a few dozen button badges (Bethnal Green E2)
Expired
I have some blue button badges with a slogan from a campaign that's now over. Wondered if anyone wanted them for a craft project (or to re-use them by sticking new labels on them) before I bin them. Anyone? Thanks, Ian

Radiator drying racks (Bethnal Green E2)
Gifted
Three old radiator drying racks: the type that hang on a radiator and provide an extra couple of racks for items to dry on. They are old enough that the plastic covering has mostly dried up and flaked off, though that doesn't stop you from putting stuff on them. They are 61cm long.

Hard pet carrier (57cm long) with broken hinge (Bethnal Green E2)
Gifted
Grey plastic carrier for a small pet (large cat / small dog - 57cm long). We are getting rid of it because we one that the badly behaved cat already likes, and more importantly because one of the hinges that holds it shut has broken. So it would suit someone who is either happy to repair it, or only seeking to use it in a context where the broken hinge doesn't matter. I'm not going to renew this offer as it's of limited appeal and we want to get rid of it.

Adie wire bike basket with (broken but fixable) (Bethnal Green E2)
Gifted
Bike basket that was meant to attach to handlebar but wasn't a perfect fit, and then the holder broke in the attempt. We got a different basket that was made for our model of bike. It's still suitable if you either already own a basket holder that would fit this basket, or have the tools & skill to re-solder or otherwise re-attach the frame into the correct position.
