Waaaaah. I wanted that frame! Sadly, I'm even... sort-of local. (It's pretty much a Whole Day's Trip to go, about 2 hours away and fighting traffic in a truck, and nothing else I want to do in that area, so.) If I had wanted something bigger, sooner, I would've gone and gotten my lovely frame... my mother even went about a week ago, but I didn't think to ask her to pick it up (if it was even still here). SIGH. I really prefer IKEA over places like Target, but... so frustrating. I looooove IKEA stylistically, but yeah, I can't get there often enough for it to be truly awesome.
Heh, I know I'm not cool for saying this, but you know where I've had REALLY GOOD LUCK getting furniture? ... Wal-mart's Site-to-Store feature. Anything in-stock online will magically appear at your local one, without shipping cost. I've gotten a lot of bulky items (like memory foam mattresses) easily with that!
GET THE BROWN FAUX BRUSHES. They are the most lovely, soft, pigment-picking-up, soft, soft soft soft brushes, for ridiculously inexpensive prices. My MAC brushes are okay... but honestly, now that my skin has gotten more sensitive, I've been reluctant to use them. I got the Brown Faux smudger and it's EXACTLY what I need -- buttery soft, but picks up pigment really well. If the full set of brushes weren't sold out, I'd advise you to get that. ($100 something, but Aromaleigh always runs 20% coupons and such -- there's one on now, check her blog! The price of three of the MAC brushes.) But, you can use the coupon on whichever you get -- aside from the big face brushes, they'll come out to a few dollars each! (I want the jumbo buffer, though. Mmmm.)
Thank youuuu! I saw her -- while yeah, I want the regular version, it heartens me to see that the Special Version is both listed, and not ridiculously expensive. I still wish I had gotten her earlier, but... eh, I can save up.
Ha, not sure; I had a Celga account ages ago... I've mostly avoided getting shopping service accounts because I know it's easy to go NUTS on there. A recommendation would be great! <3 I'm not sure when I'll get her though, depending on listings and such. I think I need her, though... I recently found a lot of the other little Momoko bits I've been looking for, so it's really just her missing. (I wouldn't mind some of the others, like Everyday B Girl, but they won't fit in with the pink shelf anyway! Good Night Cherry Pink would, but uh... I'm not going to think about that. She's not as must-have-gorgeous as MTM, to me, either.)
