Where did you get your nursery wallpaper from?

I'm starting to decorate babas room tomorrow and i HAVE to get her paper either tonight or in the morning, i've been faffing for weeks and chaging my mind!

I'm having a girl by the way and i'm having 2 walls papered and 2 painted!

Just wondered where people bought their paper from/where you think the nursery paper is nice? My current fav is a laura ashley one that's reduced from £32 a roll to £14 and i only need two rolls - but in my dads words laura ashley paper is 'thin and crap'

I'm soooo bad at making decisions!

i just bought Laura Ashley Bella butterfly paper I didnt think the quality was bad at all. I looked at Next, Mamas and Papas and specialist wallpaper suppliers like Brewers.
I am now having trouble finding affordable but nice bedding !!

Ooooooh i think that's the one i like it's got butterflies on!!

I'm just desperate to get my cot and dresser put together so i want the room doing, we bought those last week and they're annoying me being in the boxes still!

The bedding is so expensive, i've got a cotbed quilt and little duver cover for now just to make the room look nice for when she arrives, her little teddies can sit on it for now, not gonna splash out on a proper bedding set & bumpers till she's a couple of months old as she will be in her basket anyway.

Toys r Us have got nice I Love My Bear sets reduvced to £49.99

It's recommended that babies sleep in their parents room for at least the first six months. Spend the money on chocolate, she really won't care. Smile

I really like the Birdcage Wallpaper from Next, it's subtle but still very pretty. They do next day delivery as standard too :) I was shocked because I wasn't expecting Next to have such nice wallpaper to be honest!

Oh and Zara Home actually have some lovely bedding for babies and children, good price too, I was impressed.

Hi
just wanted to say the laura ashley paper is only thin and crap when used with normal wallpaper adhesive like solvite, its too strong for the paper, they usually ask if you want to buy their own mix (its about £2 a bag) and its fine, ive got 3 rooms done in laura ashley and am planning on doing the nursery, my dad said the same thing was but surprised how better it was with their own paste mix

John Lewis have some nice wallpapers. I remember seeing a really good one with owls on!

Just to let you know I went with Laura Ashley, 2 Walls have been painted today and the other 2 are being papered tomorrow, looks gorgeous ;)
