BED TOPPINGS..fun for sleepy heads!


Stakey a close friend of mine, just emailed about her amazing friend Sophie. I love creative souls who make children's world a make-believe paradise ;) Check out the range of very cute and cool bed sets for that special child in your life. Apparently she was curious "why sleep on a bed, when you can sleep in a sardine can?"- why not indeed! And hence BED TOPPINGS was born, I've emailed asking if they create for adults, I'm hooked! Visit http://www.bedtoppings.com.au and support a childs dream to sleep with the sardines...
