has anyone ordered and received the mermaid blanket yet?

[Gatekeeper]

there seem to be a few variations in price and sellers etc so am holding back a bit

If you have one and are happy with it could you let me know where you got it from please

Quite a few have from the Christmas bargain thread!

I've posted on there but it's got lost amongst the bargains so....

BUMP

Oh watching with interest as really want to get my dd one for Christmas. Please update someone!

A mermaid blanket? Where?!

like these

so many but I want to make sure that they look like the pictures before buying one. I like the knitted ones rather than fleece

I originally ordered the kids one from twinkle deals and it was really small but nice so I decided to order an adult blanket and my 8 year old loves it. The kids blanket only came up to her hips but the cult blanket is big enough for Her.

Cult ....adult

I bought a knitted one for DD2 from twinkledeals and its lovely :)

I've ordered a fleece one from ebay for ChiptheEldest so will take pictures when that arrives

I got a knitted one. It's a little bit pointless really, it doesn't look like a tail unless you purposefully lay it out and it's annoying to get in / out of if the phone rings or you need the loo.

This is a lake blue from a UK eBay seller, it was around £19 I think. It's really cosy and a lot bigger than I thought, was an adult size.

It's novelty really

i ordered one from ebay friday. says uk seller but shipping rates indicate it might not be. i'll try and update once received. good price.

this is the ebay link r.ebay.com/XuQmk2

Smashing stuff, thanks all

Thanks for the info

This one is from aliexpress £13.49 silky on outside and fleece lined inside, picture doesn't do it justice it's beautiful xx

thanks for the photos tanya

Tanya1312 - please can you tell me what the sizing is like on yours and which seller you used. I want to buy one for a 7 year old and a 4 year old

Tanya that is gorgeous. What age is it for?

This is the store name - Kuangs Textile

It's child size,mine is for 8 year old niece, the length of it comes up to middle of my rib cage.
80 cm long not including the tail xx

my ebay one was ordered friday 26th and arrived friday 1st sept.

its gorgeous. i thought the hole in the tail was to put feet through tho but its not big enough unless theres some drawstring i havent found yet. i'll try and add a pic.

i got the childs one which will be huge for my 5 year old niece probs come up to her armpits.

i got this mermaid blanket from a uk seller. took a week to come. it is lovely and long too. my niece is 5 and it will easily come up to her armpits if not further.

i don't know about anyone else but i thought there was room for them to put their feet through at the bottom so they can walk in it but this one doesnt seem to have. there is a hole but not big enough for both feet i doubt.

I bought this one in lack blue:

mermaid blanket

I paid £13.15 but its reduced a bit now. It arrived today and I'm really happy with it the colour is lovely, a mix of blue and purple and the its huge (I bought the adult size). I ordered it on 29th August.

What age do you think they are good for? Is my 10 year old niece too old?

I would also prefer to buy it in a shop if poss so that they could take it back. Do you know if any real shops sell them?

Thanks
