Buying for the Baby :)

[Lindsay]

Hi all

I am really excited, DH and I have been into town and have started buying for the baby's nursery

We are decorating it with the Zeddy and Rhubarb, Mamas and Papas range it is adorable!! We have ordered the curtains and wallpaper border (they should be in next week) and have bought a pair of tie backs and a towelling cuddle robe and bath mitt set. We had a look at the cot / beds too and have seen one that we really like, it is the Harewood Cot / Bed so next time we will start to buy the Zeddy and Rhubarb bedding etc - it is going to cost a fortune but will be well worth it!!

Oh I dont know whether I am abit premature in buying things. I have quite a few bits. I have also seen the nursery furniture I really like but the thing is it is on sale at the moment in MFI and the sale ends on Wednesday, I thought I would order it and delay delivery until I was about 25 weeks, what do you think?

just been on the MFI web site... they have a very similar bedroom furniture to the mamas and papas we've chosen... Savannah... I'll still go for the mamas and papas dresser/changer because it's really nice. But i think i'll go for the MFi wardrobe, bookcase, and cot/bed... we'll make a savings of £410... wow!!!!

[Eveadel]

Hayley, Im unable to access anything on that site, it says 'under construction' did you order from website or do you have a catalogue??

Thanks

 

[hayley]

Hi all

Just got back from town - Dh and I have had a right spending spree!!

We have bought our nursery furniture - whohoo!!!!!! We changed our mind from the harewood cot/bed as it didn't have other matching furniture to go with it so we have gone for the savannah instead - good choice hayley we have ordered the cot/bed with matress, cot top changer, dresser and bookcase. I quite like to shelf too - so may go back and order that too!!

We have bought the Zeddy and Rhubarb changing mat, fleece for the pram, lantern light shade, cot bumper and quilt set, sleeping bag / grow bag and the musical cot mobile. We also picked up the curtains and borders which we had ordered last week.

We have been to the carpet shop and put a hold on a carpet so all we need to do now is get cracking on the painting. I can't wait for it to be finished, I bet I won't be able to stop looking at it

What good taste!

We're going for Savannah too. It's the only one that's got a good range of furniture with it from Mamas & Papas and it's such good quality.

Your nursery sounds like it will be gorgeous!!

Does the dresser come with the changing thingy on top, it used to but it looks like it doesn't in the new catalogue.

Well im going to be plain and boring ...

All mine is going to be winnie the pooh! (Not very original i know!) But i can't help it ... the bear is cute lol!!!

All your nursery ideas sound great!!, deff going to give mum2B a call i think ... the chair i saw/liked was in mothercare £410!!!! You just saved me £300!!!! Thanks!!

[Imi-Maddie's-Mum]

Awww thats cheered me up a bit!!!

What furniture did you go for rach??? i've seen a winnie the pooh set in one of my books, and the winnie the pooh furniture nearly £1000!!!

Did you go plain cotbed/wardrobe/dresser??? or get the WTP furniture set?? Not sure what to do cause money doesn't grown on trees!!!

Any advice would be great chick ...
