Fairy Lights

GlitterTrashDoll · 23-07-2010, 03:14 PM

Afternoon.

Right, I want to buy some pink fairy lights to go along my shelves but I can't find any ANYWHERE! Any Ideas? Or do I need to wait a bit so it's nearer Christmas or something?

Have you looked in your local garden centre? They usually have more at Christmas, but ours has some all year I think.

Otherwise, Amazon does them [did you want a shop or is online ok?]: Here

Or is there a Cargo Homeware shop near you? I think I got my pink fairy lights in Cargo. Or Argos used to do them, but they usually have more around Christmas too.

I don't mind if I get them online, or in a shop.

Ooh I really like those pink ones on Amazon, I never thought to look there - I always associate Amazon with dvds/cds/games etc. And I've just spotted and Pink Leopard print clock on there too which I think I may have to get.

Thanks so much!

Can I just say 'Hooray' for Google. It makes everything so much easier.

Argos - i got mines form there too :)

I've tried Argos - but they didn't really have any that I liked/didn't have much of a selection. But thanks anyway!

I've found some really nice ones on Amazon though, so thank you everyone. (:

there's also internationale and other places like that. dunno if you're still in sunderland but there's lots of little independant places (cheap/junk shops basically!) that would probably have them. there's a few on blanford street and a few round by primark, also try charity shops!

Im not in Sunderland, I'm going back in September so I can always look in the afternoon when I move in. (:

Where abouts is Blanford street?

Mrs Sam · 25-07-2010, 07:22 AM

its the one sort of opposite the outside entrance to debenhams where tkmaxx is. it runs parallel to holmeside (with panda buffet on and stuff). it just has loads of cheap shops and charity shops on. i love buying random stuff from there (just stay away from the "locals") haha
