metal cutlery for children - where can I get some?

I'm looking for metal, child sized cutlery. The only ones I've seen are £7 a set in Robert Dyas but I need about 5 sets so has anyone seen cheaper?

I've got metal with plastic handles sets (BTW - Woolies have some nice ones in for £1.50 a set at the moment - half price) but I was really looking for all metal.

Any ideas? I wondered about IKEA but it's not local so could someone tell me if I'd be wasting my time before I trek over there?

Thanks!

My friend bought dd hers, it was from ikea - zebra print handles - really good size I thought.

I got some really cheap ones from the STUDIO catalogue. It was put through the door but I think they have a website. They personalised them too.

I got a set in ASDA for £5. That's the cheapest I have seen a set. It seems to be another example of ripping off parents.

studio catalogue do some nice personalised ones, £3.59!!

Ikea have some which are metal but with plastic handles. They are nice and cheap too.

i have some metal ones, try some of the bigger department stores like JL and Debenhams, but don't go to the children's sections, go to housewares or wherever you'd find the cutlery and such
hate the plasticy themed stuff

All metal sets can be bought from studio catalogue for around £3, can also have name put on them if you want. They are good stainless steel sets as we have a few.

princessmel · 26/01/2007 17:19
