FÖRSÄSONG Cable Management Tray, white, (38W x 17H 11D cm)

This is a small mesh tray, made of good quality materials and solid placement pins, that you put on the side of your desk to organise your computer cables, adaptors and plugs. The tray comes with two Velcro fasteners for extra support. Although this is the tray's main use, you can use it to put some small plants or decorative elements or, I do as a stationary open drawer. I was using it o put my pens and pencils directly on it,  but they would often get out through and fall on the floor through the openings at both sides of the tray. This is because I had put many items inside; if just a four or so pens, there is no problem. At the moment, I use it to hold two small pouches with those pencils and pens.  This tray is economic, easy to install and remove, and the securing pins don't loosen.

Designers =  J. Jelinek & A. Fredriksson.

LParkin Woodland Animals Fox Canvas Pencil Case (8L x 3.5 H in)

This is a gorgeous light pouch that looks small but can hold lots of pens, pencils, markers,  erasers and sharpeners. It's advertised to hold up to 80 pencils. The illustration quality matches that of the photo. The pouch is said to be made of canvas, but I think it's just thick acrylic canvas-like fabric. The inner lining is clearly plastic, something I love as some pens, markers and pencils can stain or spill a bit of product. This pouch is also great as a makeup holder.

Scholl Dry Skin Foot Care PediMask (1 Pair)

Like many other feet Scholl products, this mask is great. My feet are always dry or very dry, especially after Winter. Using this foot mask makes a huge difference. The results are as good as the ones I got at a beauty salon feet treatment. The effects are noticeable immediately and for several days, but I tend to use this mask (alternating this with others foot masks) for several weeks so that my feet get back to normal. The mask contains glycerin, urea, shea butter and macadamia oil.
 
The product is really easy to use. Cut the plastic boots top and put your feet inside as if they were socks. Fast the Velcro and let your feet soak.  The recommended treatment time is 20 minutes. However, I keep the boots on for 30-35 minutes as I haven't had any allergy reaction to the product. 

The boots are  quite large so they can fit small feet like mine to a large size. The product doesn't specify what's the maximum size, though. They're disposable, one-use plastic and that's my main criticism. 

Kmart Glazed Teal Pot with stopper (20H x 24D cm)

This is a huge terracotta pot glazed in a gorgeous teal turquoise colour. It is heavy (4 kilos) and really large. It has a drainage hole and comes with a plastic stopper just in case you want to use it just with an artificial plant. I have it with a decorative plant in my living room and it looks fab. The price is incredible for such a gorgeous good quality large ceramic pot.

Kmart 6pc LED warm-light Tealights (3.6H x 3.7D cm)

This is one of my staples at home. I use them mostly during Christmas but also on other occasions. They last a long time and they look very natural as they emit a warm white light. They are only for use indoors and they include the battery (3V CR2032). The battery receptacle is protected by a screwed lid. I found difficult finding this type of battery and, when I did, I found impossible to open the lid to replace the battery. I hate one-use products. 
Materials: Polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polypropylene (PP), light-emitting diode (LED), iron and plastic.

Russell Hobbs Colours Plus 2-Slice Toaster (RHT2655BLK)

This is a simple but effective toaster. It doesn't occupy much space on my kitchen bench, and it looks good. It defrosts and toasts, and it has an eject and stop button and a crumbs extractable tray. The knob can be pulled up when the toaster finishes so that the bread can be more easily picked up. The bread slots are spacious, something that I love as I tend to use breads of different thickness and types. Toasting is quick, but the quality of the toasting is average and rarely the same on the same setting with the same type of bread.

Read the instructions before using this toaster. Don't put bread the first time you use it because you'll get a terrible chemical burnt stench. The instructions say that this is 'curing' the materials. Whatever that means. I really disliked the chemical stench, but it didn't happen again.
 
I used to have a better taster from this brand, so I can say that this one is average quality. This one is a basic toaster at a affordable price. I bought this in a hurry after my previous one died, but I prefer fully stainless steel toasters that toast more evenly and consistently well.    

Anko Over The Door Vertical Hook (41H x11W x 2D cm)

This is a very simple over-the-door hanger. It is quite long, so I can hang plenty of stuff on it, from my rain coat, a small bag, or now that is winter my oversize hoody, scarf, and a small bag. I wish it had some sort of felt or padding at the back because, as it doesn't, the hook moves and bangs the door often. If your doors are made of scratch-prone wood or delicate material, perhaps this isn't for you. For the rest, great value for money.
