Utterly boring question about children's bedding

If you have one of those beds in between a cot bed and a single bed, then where do you get bedding for it? Or do you just use bedding for a single bed which would presumably be huge?

Get a king size flat sheet and cut it up and sew the edges then you can make the sheets whatever size you need or you could just fold the sheet then it would always be big enough?

We have one, you mean a junior bed?. You can buy the duvets and covers from Ikea, and I think you can get the duvets from Argos, but Im not sure. This is what comes up on Google.
We just use single sized bedding tbh. We turn the duvet under at the bottom of the bed, and down the side, as it is too big for ds (3yrs).
Hth.

I have the Ikea toddler bed that extends to a single size as they grow; I can fit cot bed sheets on it or sometime use single sheets with the excess well tucked under the mattress.

Oh, and ds has this bed, so its easy to shove the covers down the side, not like the beds where they have sides on.
You can see on the picture that they have a junior sized duvet cover, but ds has the same duvet cover, but in a 'single' size.

Oh, and I use a cot bed duvet on it at the moment too.

Yes junior bed! Sorry couldn't remember the name

Thanks for the reply LMG but lol at sewing!

At the moment we just stretch a cotbed sheet over but DD really needs some new bedding.

If its not huge I think I will just buy some single stuff to use and tuck it all in

My single sheets are from america so don't know if they are the regular single size, but I put the fitted sheets on sideways and tuck the excess down the side and underneath, it makes it much easier to put the sheets on, and I fold the flat sheet in half to use as a top sheet.
