Just some ideas MM, here goes, we have this above Erins desk http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/30077248
and OH has fixed this underneath it (on the cabinet itself) http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/50022764
and we keep a roll of drawing paper on it, http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/20152281 .
Her desk is on wheels so I can get behind it every few days to pick up all the carp http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/70079212 but it doesn't have the pull out bit (bargain corner £10).

On that wall above her bed is something like this http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/40097948 safer than a lamp as it's attached to the wall, cables out of the way.
This is good http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/40157206 and you could paint the inset of the door in pink or purple gloss to jazz it up, we have this stuff that we have glued http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/6302001/c_1/1%7Ccategory_root%7CHome+and+furniture%7C14417894/c_2/2%7Ccat_14417894%7CBedroom+furniture%7C14418001/c_3/3%7Ccat_14418001%7CBedside+cabinets%7C14418006.htm and she has the wardrobe with the door insets in lilac, it's ready to paint just remember to cover the knots with solution 1st.

It's MSE to reuse packaging!Can't remember, was the street a Close(parents) or and Avenue(mine)?
I'll need to check it and see - I'll let you know and you can confirm if that's where you want it posting.Caz, what time does Asda stay open until in Scotland? Ours all close by half four here - blooming annoying if you ask me! :rolleyes:
God, mine is 4pm! But it's 24hours and a nice 5min walk from my house - and it's one of the bigger stores.A very busy Yummy Mummy to a 1 year old gorgeous boy :smileyhea
Where does the time go? :think:0 -
Our Asda and Tesco are 24hrs Monday 8am to Saturday 10pm, but only 10am-4.30pm on Sundays
Shame really cos it's usually only by 4pm on a Sunday that I'm ready to face the world!

Tesco is 8am - midnight Mon - Fri and same as Asda sat & sun
and I also have 2 x 24 hour petrol stations with Spars attached and my local shop is less than 2 min walk from my house !!

I'm envious of all of you. Bavarian shops don't open on Sundays. There's a basic shop at the central station that's open but it's about €3 for a litre of milk there.
Twice a year the small towns around Munich have Sunday openings and people stream in to shop there. Ikea does the same and there are fights over carpark spaces.
Phew, I just put the baby down after she's been asleep on me for two hours. I have pins and needles in my arm.Organised Birthdays and Christmas: Spend So Far: £193.75; Saved from RRP £963.76
