So anyway, we're moving house soon, which means I am full of excitement about New Junk. And of course, there are tiny voices in my head singing Ikea! Ikeaaaaaa!, but I'm trying hard to resist.
Which is very difficult, given that I've been ( quite the consumerist today. )
Anyway. I'm stuck for what to do for a bed. I want something fairly minimal and low to the ground, so I was thinking maybe just a mattress. (Although the novelty and impracticality of this bed made of cardboard appeals.) Kale suggested maybe a mattress on some tatami mats, which sounds like a good idea. Now, much as I love recycling, I'd rather not get a mattress from an op-shop. But before I go out and buy a new mattress, I thought I'd ask The Internet if anyone has a mattress going unused - preferably one of the 10-15cm thick foam ones, but I'll consider anything. I am, of course, happy to give money for it.
Also, if anyone has other ideas on what to do for a bed I am open for suggestions!
In unrelated news, I quite like this advice on five ways to love a cockroach.
