I never bothered with a toddler bed, just went straight to a normal single. They outgrow toddler sized mattresses by age 5ish, and I don’t want to buy beds that often 😂
Same. All of mine have gone straight to single beds/bottom bunk beds. Unless you have a cot bed, I personally wouldn’t bother with a toddler bed @Hushpuppy

Another vote for just a normal bed.
Infact the 4yo went straight into a double bed because we got given one 😂

There are some weirdos out there, who for a small price, will build your ikea furniture for you. Aka the job of dreams!😂

I have a dupe cube storage in her bedroom from Homebase. But I’m getting a proper kallax for downstairs and I’m so EXCITED

If you order online on ikea, it gives you the option to pay for someone to build it for you.

Last month i ordered 7 cheap photo frames and it asked if I wanted to pay £56 (£8 per photo frame) for someone to assemble them for me 😂😂

I just really want to avoid the trip to ikea 😂
I love ikea. Sometimes I go just for fun. And hotdogs.

We spent £350 the last time we went, and I can’t even tell you what we bought. Apart from the big bag of daim bars

Just almost given myself a bleeping aneurysm trying to hold in a cough while I put baby down for a nap. Got her to sleep and had to run to the bathroom to cough into a towel. 🫠
