Just to update, in case anyone else is also looking for kids furniture - I have posted up some photos in the gallery of the stuff I bought from Twinkle Star. They were fantastic!]]> Wed, 24 Sep 2008 11:23:31 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17886&PID=498561&title=best-place-to-buy-kids-furniture#498561 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17886&PID=404994&title=best-place-to-buy-kids-furniture#404994 Author: Two Blondinis

There is a Whistling Jack factory outlet on Rosebank Road. The website stuff is pricey and I don't know what their stuff is like but might be worth a looksie.

Harvey Norman have a gorgeous set too that we have bought bits from (wardrobe, drawers and bedside cabinet). I think they come in a range of colours but we just got white]]> Thu, 05 Jun 2008 20:56:55 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17886&PID=404994&title=best-place-to-buy-kids-furniture#404994 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17886&PID=404574&title=best-place-to-buy-kids-furniture#404574 Author: NeoshasMummy

Hehe, yeah I can see that happening here too so I'm not going to kid myself.

Thanks for posting the pics too.. I really like the look of the stuff I have seen. Glad to hear those who used The Giddy Giraffe have been happy with their products.

I also like the stuff in the twinkle-star website too Mel...

This is Maya's room, we have moved things around a bit since then tho...




And the gremlins room, but this is before they got the second dresser, bedsiders and toy chest...



Will make up Chiara's cot and take some pics of her room later on today.]]> Wed, 04 Jun 2008 13:51:27 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17886&PID=403217&title=best-place-to-buy-kids-furniture#403217 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17886&PID=403204&title=best-place-to-buy-kids-furniture#403204 Author: Maya

They do paint it all themselves etc. it's just that their designs and color schemes are almost identical to Giddy Giraffe and Giddy Giraffe have been around a good 2 years longer. The Glitterbug lady has made no secret of that either...

Maya has a 4 drawer scotch chest, a low bookcase, a bedsider and a toy chest and it looks perfect in her room. She has a fairly big room.

Gremlins have 2 x 7 drawer dressers, a low bookcase, a toy chest and 2 x bedsiders. Their room does look cluttered but that's coz the two dressers take up so much room.

Chiara has a 7 drawer dresser, a tall bookcase and a bedsider, we went with the tall bookcase as there is less room in her room coz we also have a queen size bed in there.

Will try and find some pics...]]> Wed, 04 Jun 2008 13:44:32 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17886&PID=403204&title=best-place-to-buy-kids-furniture#403204 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17886&PID=403176&title=best-place-to-buy-kids-furniture#403176 Author: NeoshasMummy

Also Emma did you buy the whole set? like a set of drawers, a bookshelf and cabinet?

I want to get a low boy, tall boy, side cabinet and tall bookshelf but im thinking it may look too much in the room???? Im not much of a interior decorator lol

EDIT: lol I thought they claimed to be original hand painted stuff! Nope I dont think thats cool at all!!! Shows how much I take notice of things I saw them on tm and thought oh thats nice lol didnt realise they were that dodgy.

I cant decide between lulu bell or polly pink now. Gosh life is hard

We love Giddy Giraffe here too, Erin has a table and chairs as well as a cube storage unit from them that was custom painted. I would have loved to have painted some things myself but I only ever got as far as doing her bedroom door!]]> Wed, 04 Jun 2008 12:28:39 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17886&PID=403079&title=best-place-to-buy-kids-furniture#403079 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17886&PID=403008&title=best-place-to-buy-kids-furniture#403008 Author: Maya

Check this place out, I haven't brought from them - yet. I want to replace Nyah's dresser and bed side table. Once I've saved some money, I'll be getting stuff from here.

So I'm now looking for some nice girly furniture for Alyssa's room, and despite thinking for 1 second that maybe I could paint some blank furniture myself.. Reality is, I'm going to buy.

I have heard about Giddy Giraffe, and it looks nice (albeit pricey)... Has anyone bought stuff from there or anywhere that has similar or even nicer stuff?]]> Tue, 03 Jun 2008 19:32:16 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17886&PID=402372&title=best-place-to-buy-kids-furniture#402372
