hopefully the last lingering aftertaste of moving problems

In the process of moving, three small items went missing:

• all the curtain clips


• all the blutack


• all the pushpins except for an unopened box that wasn't with the others

A few days ago I discovered between small plantpots on the windowsill:

• the curtain clips


• the pushpins

...But the blutack is a complete mystery. Everything is now moved in and unpacked completely, so we can invite people over, but hasn't had time to become untidy yet. I still know where everything is and I have no idea where the blutack could be hiding, so unless it's stuck to the bottom of a shoe somewhere, I guess I'll declare it lost at sea.

 

(I actually bought a new package a couple of weeks ago (although this stuff was white so I guess it's whitetack) and have now used all of it and have some stuff that fell down when I tried to stick it up with washi tape so I'm going to have to buy another one.)

(Everything else is finally fixed, even the fucking shower curtain. I found clips at Tokmanni that I had missed the first time I was there, and we finally got everything we needed from Ikea after three trips - which I've got to say is definitely in the 'shame' category of 'number of trips to Ikea per move'.)

lampshades

The new flat has 1 more ceiling light fixture than the old one, but we also had an evil light fixture that was nearly impossible to put up that I wanted to replace, so I ended up making shades for two hanging lamps, one out of folded paper in the bedroom and one out of hardware cloth in the livingroom.
