    Question sheets for IKEA toddler bed????

    We have a toddler bed from IKEA which is an odd length and most the toddler bed sheets from Target etc dont fit I
    KEA sell a fitted cream sheet but thats it....not very exciting for a 2 year old!

    where can I get sheets to fit it???? Am thinking of making some myself when DH finally sets up my sewing machine but our kids could be 21 by thats time!

    HELP! please xx

    Lets not forget that the quality of the sheets at Ikea aren't that great either! If I was you, I would just buy a single bed fitted sheet and it will tuck all the way under the mattress.

    With Max's bed, he has a plain old boring sheet on the bottom and I bought him a doona cover set (Elmo) from Target and I have put that on the top to 2 year old it up

    You could always try dying the IKEA sheet? Otherwise can you commission a sewer to make some for you? Maybe one of our BB WAHMs or crafty chicks?

    DS has the mammut bed from IKEA which is smaller than a single bed, so is probably a toddler bed I suppose? We just got him single sheets and fold the excess under it. My mum got him some sheets with trains and trucks on them - didn't realise they were for a double bed!! So we just folded them in half and they fit great.

    Just got some sheets from target which are kids single ones and its way too big but as you said just folded it under!
    I am just worried he may get tangled in them cause he moves so much when sleeping. what do you think?

    Nelle i may just have to do that good ideas thanks x
