What’s Hot at Metro Mum? Oeuf Nursery, Mojo Beanbags, HappyMais craft, KidsonRoof plus much more!

Posted: November 20th, 2008

Today’s post written by Miki

……………………………………………………………………………………………………

Every so often I stumble across an item that I absolutely can’t live without.  Strangely enough (or not – you’ll see what I’m talking about) a majority of them seem to be at Metro Mum – www.metromum.com.au.

Take the Oeuf nursery furniture range, for example.  I would kill to have this stuff in my nursery, as I’m sure would just about every style-conscious mama. It’s sleek, minimalist with a little hint of retro and just absolutely stunning.  Naturally, the quality of its construction goes without saying. The range is available in Beech or Walnut tones.

The Oeuf range has also been very cleverly designed to last for as long as possible – after all, these are investment-quality pieces and you want to get your money’s worth! The cot can be converted into a seriously stylish toddler bed and the dresser can have the change table added to the top during the baby years, and then removed during the older years to be a piece that wouldn’t look remotely out of place in a stylish teenager’s or adult’s room. The mini library (so cool, I love the cubbies) is also very flexible in that it would be perfect in a modern nursery but would work just as well in the living room or kitchen – or any room in the house, really!

At the opposite end of the size scale is the Munchee Mug, an ingeniously designed cup to hold toddler snacks which won’t spill them all over the floor.  I quite often pack some cheese cubes or home-made popcorn for Alex when we go out, but about and it drives me mad when he up-ends the container and they all fall out onto the supermarket floor! (ewwwww) The Munchee Mug could put an end to my woes by allowing him to comfortably get his fist into and out of the cup, but not letting him spill everything on the floor.  It’s available in four cool colour combos and it’s a bargain – $12.99!

For kids slightly older than my toddler, I love the KidsonRoof Cardboard Playhouse.  A cubby house (who doesn’t love them!) which can be decorated and personalised making it kid heaven, and then folded down flat to slide under the bed when it’s not in use. This’d be the perfect Christmas present for 3-6 year olds.It’s on special this week too!

Now speaking of specials, I’ll let you in on a little tip: keep a close eye on Metro Mum’s ‘What’s Hot’ box (you can see it on their homepage) as the specials in it will be changing weekly leading up to Christmas.  It’s a great way to get super deals on super products, including products which are rarely discounted.  This week’s Hot Box contains the KidsonRoof Cardboard Playhouse as mentioned above, and the uber-funky Mojo Mini Me Kids Beanbag Chair.  BaaaarGAIN!

And while I’m on a roll, here’s another tip: join the Metro Mum Club to receive exclusive discounts and offers during the year, and earn rewards points on all your purchases.
