You know, Winnie the Pooh, Disney Princesses, Dora and The Wiggles...
I feel like our kids are bombarded enough each day with advertising and marketing, so I have tried to steer clear of it in things that I make.
Except book characters, I make an exception there!
But then four big blue eyes were looking up at me pleadingly when two small girls spotted this on the clearance table at Spotlight.
And I justified it to myself because they would only be wearing them at night, inside and at least it wasn't Dorothy the Dinosaur in her true colours of vivid green and gold, it was only two-tone pink.
I could live with that, right?
So I caved, and bought it.
Metres of it, as required to make two pair of Oliver+s bedtime story PJ's.
I bound them with pink gingham and pink dots.
It was worth sacrificing a small piece of my soul to the merchandising powers of The Wiggles to see the looks on their faces and the very cute prancing around in their new PJ's when they were finished.Of course I still have enough to make some for the smallest miss, oh dear!
