Six items, at a guess. Concealer, Foundation, Lipstick, Eyeliner, Mascara, Blush. Pretty basic and hasn't really changed in decades. Might drop concealer and add eyeshadow. Not an over the top amount of makeup, and certainly not one to be shocked over, unless you're just trying to come across as superior and smug. Probably the same people who comment they don't have a TV when someone on here asks where is the best place to put their TV in and awkward rooom.

My wife does makeup professionally, and the amount of makeup she has necessitates a lot of storage, so this interests me as a concept.

@monkeylizard & traceyj - Landlord Tenant Acts are provincial, and vary by province. In BC, security deposits are allowed. In Ontario they aren't.

One set of imperial, and one set of metric allen keys are a much better solution.

I picked 'other'. Something urban that has residential and commercial.... storefront with housing above. I want my commute from home to work to be through a door, not leaving the building. ;)

They're a mass production item. Do a google search for 'gothic salad plate'. It's not surprising to see the exact same four seeing as they're sold as a set.

Real tree, cut at the lot. Decorated with misc. ornaments collected and inherited. Some of the ornaments date back to the 1800's. Multi-colour lights. Tinsel, hung a single strand at a time just like my grandparents and mother did (And collected off the tree one at a time. There's even some of the old lead tinsel in the bundle of tinsel in the christmas box.). Goes up on Dec 20th, and comes down fairly early in January.

I'm very much of a traditionalist.
