What have you got enough to last you a lifetime?

Towels - I am going to donate some to a local animal shelter where they ask for them. I’m also going to cull some of the Christmas decorations - I am over all the tinsel.

Cold bags I can never resist a new one and ice blocks !!! I do like a picnic 😂

Tablecloths - unless we change the table for a different size.

I go through so many nutmegs, knickers and savons de Marseilles , I have to buy new supplies every year.

My hoard of books, garden tools, tea towels, vintage bone china, vintage embroidered linen and vintage silk scarves should hold out until I'm at least 100- and-something.

Art and craft supplies but it won’t stop me buying more.

Art supplies from my various attempts at being an artist!
Also I accidentally ordered a huge bag of panko bread crumbs
when I did my click n collect groceries. Must be meant for catering!

Nail strengthener. such good intentions…

Pillow cases
Dusters (.old T-shirts )
Socks
Knickers
Books ( though I can always find room for those)

Tea. Partner thinks he's being helpful.

Crockery and cutlery.

Fabric and reels of cotton.

How can anyone ever have enough knickers 🤣
I think I have enough dinner sets. Am going to have to part with some when we move, we went through a phase of buying sets in charity shops and on car boot sales.

I probably have enough handbags, but couldn’t possibly say I will not get anymore 🤫

Oh yes. And shoes😬

Bed linen

Towels

Weed killer

I probably have enough handbags, but couldn’t possibly say I will not get anymore 🤫

I suppose the furniture would last the rest of my life.

But when I have to go into the retirement home I’m going to have all new stuff!

I have several jars of cloves from when I intended to make orange pomanders with the DGC. Then came Covid.

Clothes, although they have been seen so many times they really should be retired.
My D lived in Antigua for three years many years ago now.
Every time she came home she bought me a jar of whole spices so I also have lots of nutmegs and the tiny graters for them.
I have given many away through the years.

My faith

Reels of cotton. I gave up making my own clothes and curtains years ago.

Bed linen

Towels

Boxes of herbal tea.

Fabrics and spinning stash in my house, tools in my garage, I do use them including the `what if` tools

Spinning wheels, I have a herd

French soaps. I am happy to have culled make-up a couple of years ago and now have space to buy a few nice lipsticks

My favourite, easy-going house plants, different varieties of sansevierias

Free sachets of face stuff as I recently bought a new lipstick and some primer from different companies.

Well at 84 I think I probably have enough of everything - but I expect I shall have to top up on food from time to time 😉

How long is a lifetime?
That is the question.

Towels (but it's always good to have some new ones)
Tea towels, if I use the souvenir ones
Probably yarn, but it's never quite the right colour.

I'm going to have a cull of makeup, especially lipsticks etc.
