eBay confessions

MummyMoo82, 30 August, 2012 at 20:38 Posted on Planning 0 19

I stand here and declare that second to my obsession with Hitched is my endless trawling on ebay. Tonight I just bought a load of Hen Party, Bride, Groom, Usher, Bridesmaid badges. And some string fairy lights.

For those who saw my balloon post, the money is indeed being better used elsewhere. On random crap!

    I too am an eBay addict!! And not just for wedding things!! I love a bargain lol. I practically jumped for joy this morning when I won a BNWT next dress for my little girls second birthday party - its beautiful and £25 in the shop. He he. My OH and me share the account and both have mobile updates on items we are watching etc, he told me off yesterday because his phone doesn't stop bleeping all day!! And then asked what the hell aqua crystal beads were???? Lol

    We've bought tons of stuff off ebay for our wedding. It's great as you can get old & new stuff so suits modern or vintage tastes. I even got my original 1950s shoes that I'm wearing on the day off ebay. Downside is I ended up with 4 pairs as you can't try before you buy!!!!

    My OH is totally addicted to ebay anyway - buys & sells all the time.

    I'm also a big Amazon fan!

    I'm on ebay right now, buying wedding things! Today, in particular, mini artificial topiary trees for our centrepieces, and some russian netting to attempt making my own birdcage veil.

    Only buy it now stuff though, not into bidding...it's a steep slope if I start bidding... ?

    Oh I know me too... Can't be doing with bidding! I need to buy something right that second, I'm too impatient to wait! ha ha!

    If you don't have much luck with making your own birdcage veil try wedding veils direct, they are really cheap Smiley smile

    Thanks for the tip Nataliee! Will definitely try it out if the one I'm going to try goes wrong. The netting is cheapocheapo on ebay so I thought I might as well have a go, I'm only planning on wearing it for the ceremony and pictures then it's coming right off haha ?
