Pine dressing table stool (Wickford SS12)
A nice old pine dressing table stool, which came with a dressing table I bought from eBay but which is too low for me ( and my knees 🤣). The fabric covering will need a clean but it's seems a shame to take to the tip. Size 50cm long X 40cm wide X 47cm high. Hope someone can make use of itn

Gold and glass chandelier (Wickford SS12)
Expired
We are really upset to be getting rid of this light fitting. We brought it with us when we downsized but our ceilings are too low. I think it's all glass, not plastic and it was working before it went into storage but obviously,no guarantee. We also have one wall fitting which isn't complete but might be handy for spare parts.

Sewing box ( I think) (Wickford SS12)
Gifted
We have this wooden box with an old padded top which I think would have been a sewing box. There looks to be screw holes on the underneath which must have taken legs at some point. I kept the box with the view of refurbishing it but have been bought a new one by family so this is surplus to requirement now. Could anyone make use of it ?

Catherine Cookson books (Wickford SS12)
Gifted
We have no room since downsizing for a lot of our books. If you would like these, before we take to the charity shop, you are more than welcome. Thank you Note; Since the last person who asked for these didn't want them in the end, I have relisted them. Please only ask for them if you really want them . Am happy to pass them on but don't want to be messed around again. Thank you.

Punk fancy dress (Wickford SS12)
Gifted
Home made outfit with size 18 mini skirt and belt, tartan tights, tartan ribbons that I pinned on skirt, ear cuff, safety pin tights size l/XL. Loved this outfit with hair all spiked and a white t-shirt with rips in it and slogans,( couldn't put on her as it wouldn't be allowed lol). I also used loads of safely pins and paper clips to make chains from ears to nose.... Ah those were the days 😜. Hope someone can make use of them, otherwise I'll take to charity shop. Been in storage a long while, so even though all went into box washed and clean, will need redoing.
