Jools Oliver baby stuff - isn't it gorgeous?!

I've just been to Mothercare and have to admit I stood next to this section for ages trying to decide if I could justify it.

In the end bought a couple of cot bed sheets and a towel. Everything is gorgeous.

There are some things that are dear like the bumper, but it's all really lovely and the sheets weren't much more, if any, than the Mothercare own plain ones.

Just sharing as I was lost trying to find nice baby bedding a while back and have finally found some that's pretty without being over the top.

Yes, I love it too. I love the fawn nightie & pyjamas - so cute!! I don't normally think much of the clothes in Mothercare but love this stuff. Will definitely be making some purchases!

Oh jolly good. Yes I wandered into Mothercare in a state of apprehension, or was it despair, as usual, but these really surprised me.

I actually had a little nightie with a fawn on it once, not sure what happened to it. I'm sure ds wore it when he was a baby. I wonder if it's the same one JO based the designs on.

It's so sweet isn't it! I bought the little rainbow top with stripey leggings! Might go back got the sheets, did they come in cot size?

It is gorgeous! I had a £15 off voucher and I went a bit mad last night and bought blankets and fitted sheets and the swaddle thing too and some other stuff. I am collecting at the weekend and really looking forward to seeing it all

Just ordered the fawn nightie, rainbow pyjamas and the super star t-shirt Grin. It's all very lovely stuff. Have to be a bit careful though, some of the boy models looked like miniature Jamie Olivers with their checked shirts and groovy t-shirt combos Confused

I love the little Bird range, too. The nighty, terry baby gro and anyting with the fawn motif is my fave, also the chintz skirt! I hope Mothercare pull their socks up and revitalise the entire clothing range they have to match this at least in quality and age appropriateness. The baby k range was horrible and i hate it when clothes are designed to make a child look decidely older... they're only babies once!
It also seems that Jools had a large input because i have being eyeing up her style that she clothes her children in for a while and i have to say that it is genuinely similar to it. Grin

have to agree. Saw this in the flesh yesterday and it stands out in store as fresh and of a serious step up in style to the rest of the range. There were a number of things i would have happily bought and can't remember when i last thought that about any clothes in mothercare. Their range is usually no more appealing than the supermarket brands but at a far higher price. No idea why you would waste your pennies.

Sorry to resurrect a zombie thread but this is the only one I could find on here without having to post a brand new thread.

I absolutely love this range!! I have bought most of the nursery bits and bobs and got most of it half price!
Does anyone else have this range?

I really wanted the toadstool doorstop but cannot find it anywhere for love nor money!! :-(

It's a long shot but would anyone on here happen to be selling one?

Have you tried setting up an alert on eBay?

I love the range too, especially the fawn and toadstools cot sheets.

Oh an alert on eBay? Not heard of that before - I'll check it out! Altho have been scouring eBay for a couple of weeks now!
I love the fawn soft toy which I had half price and also the bunting.... I just love it all!! But the toadstool doorstop really would just complete it for me :-(

They really don't have much of the range left on mothercare's website, which is a shame. Do you think there will be a new little bird nursery set coming soon? I'm due in march and struggling to find any set I like.

That's what I've been wondering longisland - I reckon they're selling it off cheap as it's being discontinued to make way for a new one... But I'm only speculating!
Unless Jools is just going to concentrate more on the clothing range side of things?

I've just emailed mothercare, hopefully get a response...

I'm not sure they still do the toadstool doorstop as got it about two months ago, was in a clearance sale for £5

I bought the doorstop when it first came out but it doesnt stand up particularly well.
