Where can I get a nice nightlight from

I need a nightlight to go outside DD1's bedroom door. She sometimes gets up in the night to inform me it's too dark for her to sleep!

When I was a kid I had a gorgeous ceramic nightlight that looked like a little round thatched cottage - had a hole in the side so you could see inside where a little family of ceramic rabbits lived - all beautifully detailed and painted. I loved it. Any idea where I could get something similar?

My friend picked one of these up at a boot fair of all places, so they can be found I guess. It was obviously old so her clever dh replaced the light fitting and wire and gave it a new lease of life. Wish I could be of more help, but you just reminded me of a very dear friend who I miss loads (she lives in Aus)! I hope you're lucky enough to find one somewhere - try ebay? - you never know!

How about this , anto? It's not the same but a nice friendly face! (You could put in a weaker bulb than 40w if that was too bright.)

An alternative to a nightlight, and what we have done, is to put a dimmer switch on the upstairs landing light. We turn it down really low - almost off - when we go to bed, but it is still bright enough for dd to see if (when ) she gets up during the night.

Dd has a little lighthouse one from IKEA where the windows are lit up. Got it a couple of years ago and it was very reasonable. If they don't still do it they may do something similar.

I have just recently brought a beautiful nightlight for my little girl. Hers specifically is a Maisy one as she is a big fan of her but they do other one's as well. Here is a link:
