Just bought throws/blankets for everyone's beds (instead of Xmas duvets). Very excited. Lots of Nordic styles on eBay.

We have the grey Nordic duvet set (online) and a Primark flannel white with tiny blur reindeer sheet and pillowcase set.
(DH didn't like the dark blue set and red wouldn't go in our room)
We bought a KS bed in January.
DD has our old double bed and my warm (but not Christmassy) microfibre plum duvet and sheet set .
The DC have Christmas fleece throws (bought when they were preschool age)

My bedding will go on Dec 1st I reckon.

Dunelms do some lovely fleece covers. I brought them last year for my 2 dd's and grandson .

I also got my eye on the grey nordic style ones from b&m for front room

I just bought this yesterday because I couldn't resist! Didn't think about putting them on the beds. Lovely idea!

There were lots in Dunelm. Really soft and cosy microfibre type fleece.

The gingerbread man thrown from Dunelm is gorgeous!

Today I just happened to swing into Dunelm Mill........
and got 2 fleeces (holly and gingerbread man)
2 gingerbread man cushions for my pooh brown sofa
and a doormat Grin

Told the lady at the checkout is was 70 days (I'm sure she was thrilled ) probably thought I was a bit weird Halloween Wink

Ah, but Dunelm always sell out really quickly of the fleece blankets, so you have to get them soon! We have two gingerbread man ones on a couple of chairs by the patio window which the cat likes to sleep on and spread black hairs all over.

I must look at the cushions.....

Sob ! That stupid shop don't home deliver those amazing blankets and I don't live near a shop. Not fair. Sad

Are the Dunelm mill gingerbread blankets microfibre fleece?

Report
girlywhirly · 16/10/2013 16:16

They're not the furry pile sort of fleece, but they're very cute and not expensive. Chimchar thinks they are microfibre.

Waitmonkey, do you have any rellies who live near a Dunelm who could post you some?

Got lovely red Nordic ones in matalan yesterday were in a 3for 2 offer at £5 each and then had the 20%off voucher too, they are lovely and soft. Worked out at about £2.67 each!! Grin

Ooooh. I always put on Santa duvets for the DC, but this year I want to get some Christmassy bedding for us, so I will pop into Dunelm and have a look!

Can I ask penguinbear which atalan voucher?

I can't find the matalan blanket on the website. It's a 25mminute drive to the nearest one... is it worth going on the off chance?
