Just a bit of research as I'm wanting to sell some children's desks that i've decoupages (covered with paper) - I'm thinking football teams etc


Anyway, my question to parents of older kids is where have you bought your children's desks from and how much did you spend?


Thanks in advance


They'll look a bit like this but obviously as a table and not Peppa Pig!!!! http://pressiesbypebbles.com/my-crafting/very-cool-childrens-furniture/

Having said that I would never buy a piece of IKEA furniture again and it was a false economy I have just bought my son a desk and chair from - IKEA. Was hoping one would turn up on the forum but the right thing but it never did and my extensive research couldn't unearth anything which wasn't extortionate (except maybe Next, similar price and quality to IKEA)

Yes, I got that one as well, with the side cupboard; one in white and green and one in white and birch. They really went together quite well and my son ( 10 at the time ) was actually a useful help and enjoyed the whole process.....( ie picking it out, finding the right aisle and then the whole assembly process. In fact, I might hire him out......!!

      Interesting solution to owning a cargo bike

      Quicker than a car…crikey how fast do they go?   I have PTSD from a folding bike I had as a kid that snapped in half when I did a jump! I look at things like this and Bromptons and get the fear which is why I stick to sturdier bikes!

      National Travel Survey and cycling policy in London

      By Rockets · Posted

      Earl…that isn’t misinformation it comes from the very report the 20% increase (in cycling stages) claim was taken from and regurgitated by many without actually checking the facts. Unless, of course, you are saying that TFL is spreading misinformation….;-)   Here are all the reports: https://tfl.gov.uk/corporate/publications-and-reports/travel-in-london-reports   Then scroll down to the Travel in London 2023 - Active Travel trends (pasted below to make it easy for you to find) and then you’ll find everything I have quoted from page 13…. https://content.tfl.gov.uk/travel-in-london-2023-active-travel-trends-acc.pdf   And I am actually shocked that, despite all the investment, that growth has been minimal…hardly the 10x growth Will Norman claimed was coming…..   Cycling made up 4.5 per cent of trips in London on an average day in 2022, up from 3.6 per cent in 2019.

      New Shops in Dulwich / Peckham - 2024 Edition

      Because it's affordable and plenty of choice.   It's a changing and will continue to do so. As with most areas going through the gentrification process it will be all about the night time economy meaning a saturation of drinking holes and ' cool and vibrant ' licensed eateries. Brixton mark 2. I think Covid slowed down the pace of change in the next ' up and coming ' areas and has given many prospective ventures itchy feet and pause for thought because there's less footfall and disposable cash than there was pre covid. Brixton for example is much quieter and visibly down on numbers in both bars and eateries. Across London clubs and music venues are dropping like flies.
