January is nearly over and hopefully our collective blues will soon be gone along with it! Talking of which, I’ve never understood why we named these unwelcome feelings after such a beautiful colour. If you ask me, they should have been called ‘the browns’ or ‘the mauves’, or better still ‘the fawns’!
Here at Little Lucy Willow we have been enveloped in the pretty shade of seaside blue from our beds to our drawers thanks to the Barney and Boo exclusive collection, which is currently on offer. And we couldn’t be happier for it. In fact, I would recommend it to anyone! Am I selling this…?
I thought I would give you a little re-cap as to why this particular collection of children’s bedroom furniture could be the right one for you.
When your toddler grows out of their cot bed, they are thrust into the big wide world leaving babyhood behind. As a parent, you have been looking forward to this milestone but have also been dreading your little one growing up – and dismantling that cot! The tears, oh the tears…You’ll get over it. You now have to decide what to put in its place.
You might want to put your child straight into a big bed, with big furniture to match, but then again, you might not be ready to make such a step. In which case, you want something childlike yet will last the intervening years, something durable, timeless, solid and dependable. Handmade in the UK perhaps?
You want something that isn’t flatpacked, imported or thrown together. Something that will form a neat backdrop to your child’s ever-changing tastes as they grow up. Something which has lovely matching furniture in all shapes and sizes to slot into those nooks and crannies where other furniture simply can’t reach. And you want something sensibly priced.
I give you, Barney and Boo!
