a bed in a fish tank...cool

IKEA do something very similar for about £130.
Would look the same painted.

Wallace · 09/09/2007 22:54

NotAnOtter · 09/09/2007 23:16

yes saw the ikea one moondog - just not as nice...

Tesco have a couple but only one (3ft) in stock (£5 off voucher TDX-WILL05 + 5% quidco). The White co one looks very simple for the price, could you get a local joiner to make one for you?

NotAnOtter · 09/09/2007 23:49

i agree bubblerock but am unsure where to start...

Only just seen this - will google...

JackieNo · 10/09/2007 17:20

Again not white, but could be painted.

JackieNo · 10/09/2007 17:22

Not wooden, but very pretty?

JackieNo · 10/09/2007 17:27

Or this?

Pollyanna · 10/09/2007 17:27

the one in aspace is £495, so it is cheaper...

JackieNo · 10/09/2007 17:29

Also features pink. Aspace stuff is lovely.

DarrellRivers · 10/09/2007 17:32

JackieNo, have just had my aspace catalogue today and they do good value bunks at £395. But pine with whitewash which I think I hate
Any experience of painting whitewashed pine?
Is aspace furniture good quality and would you recommend it?
Last bought a white company bed for DD1 which although pricy was excellent quality and easy to out together.
they don't do bunks this year though and the normal price bunks at aspace seem to be quite dear.

JackieNo · 10/09/2007 17:35

Afraid I've only ever drooled over the Aspace catalogue, DarrellRivers, but I've seen other people saying it's good quality.

JackieNo · 10/09/2007 17:36

Sorry - missed a question - no, no experience of painting whitewashed pine. You might have to put on some sort of primer first, I guess.

Pollyanna · 10/09/2007 17:37

I have got an aspace bed for dd1 - it's the one with drawers underneath. I'm not that impressed with the quality (there's nothing wrong with it though)- it's a very nice bed and looks lovely, but that dreams one that Jackieno linked to looks just as nice imo.

NotAnOtter · 10/09/2007 17:38

wow!!!!! fabulous everyone!!
I was really hoping for double bed size....

DarrellRivers · 10/09/2007 17:40

Sorry to have hijacked your thread otter with talk of bunkbeds
can't decide whether to buy aspace or just buy the ikea hemnes ones..or will they be rickety....

NotAnOtter · 10/09/2007 17:46

aspace stuff is truly nice!!

i bought my dd a white company sleigh bed when she was small...i have seen many imitations but the nice stuff looks better longer imo...

roomtogrow in my town has good sales on bunkbeds

you can google them

NotAnOtter · 10/09/2007 17:53

grr just tried to wangle a discoubt with white company but no joy

OP posts:
Pollyanna · 10/09/2007 18:08

you can usually get a discount from aspace - I got a 15% one.

I also had the sleigh beds from the White co for my first 2 children - now being used by nos 3 and 4. It's worth paying extra imo and ime.
