"Great idea"
Sebastian was 2 1/2 when his brother was born, and although we knew he would be a fabulous big brother, we wanted to make sure that he knew that his new brother loved him lots. We decided to buy him a gift from Elliot, and decided on the sea-themed stickers. When the box arrived, I was so pleased with the quality, but knew it wasn't the best thing to give him as a present in the hospital as he would want to stick them there! Having a mush-brain and a pretty unsettled newborn, the stickers got forgotten about for a couple of weeks. (Dont worry! Sebastian got other little presents from his new brother!) When we finally remembered we made a huge fuss, put Elliot down for a sleep and spent a wonderful hour decorating Sebastian's room. His face when he saw the stickers and the size of them was beautiful. He was so excited!
The stickers we so easy to apply to the walls, and the very best thing was that they were SO easy to remove and re-position which was great, as Sebastian regularly changed his mind as to where he wanted them to go!
They have been on his wall for a 3 months now, and when his bed changed position, the stickers went with it. Only one has fallen off and can no longer be used but that was the treasure box that looked so realistic, Sebastian kept pulling it off to get to the treasure! Bless. I would highly recommend this product. Not the cheap, but well worth it.

"great"
i recieved mine as was very impressed as i was heavly pregnant at the time and was decorating my daughter room because it was going to be hers and the new babys room so we recieved the winnie the pooh stickers was impressed with the size of the stickers as the were very big. the are very colourful great for a baby with all the different colours. the stickers are reuseable so if you make a mistake in puting them on the wall the yuo can peel them back off and correct them. the stickers have been up now for about 6 months and some of them keep and peeling away from the walls in my opinion thats not very good. but apart from that we are impressed with them

"fantastic is the only way to describe these"
when i was chosen for these i was totally over the moon and when they arrived i was even happier due to the size of the stickers they are a really good size
after painting michaels room i decided to have a go of putting a couple up while he had his afternoon nap and they were so easy to do even the height chart i thought would be a nightmare wasnt to bad
the room and they were completed before he'd finished his nap
the effect they have given his room are fantastic they were so easy to do i was utterley delighted when he saw his room he was deligfhted and everyone who comes in and sees it comments on how good it is
i have purchased a second set of stickers disney princess ones for my daughter and cannot wait to get them up they are worth every penny and anyone considering getting them will be delighted with results
i wish they had older themes as i would love them for my 7 year old son but he's into dr who hoping they bring out some different styles
i would like to thank fun to see and the babywebsite for helping me make my sons bedroom perfect
love them so much.

"Simple, but effective"
Lucas couldn't wiat to have his Cars stickers up around his bed. So when they arrived he was straight upstairs tidying his room, which is a miracle in itself (I had told him there was no way they'd be going up in a messy room).
The stickers were well packaged, but I felt they were maybe a bit overpackaged. They came off the giant (and I mean giant!) sticker sheets without a problem, although some of the longer ones did stick together, but they easily pulled apart with no damage to the sticker.
Putting them up was as easy as anything and they came off easily when I had to do a bit of rearranging to fit them all on. The kit comes with a plastic smoother to help smooth any air bubbles out as some of the stickers are fairly large and it saves hunting for something to use!
Lucas loves his room now and he's happy to play in it all day, which is great as he can't bring toys downstairs or his little sister will eat them!
Overall it'a a brilliant product although I did feel it a bit pricey, but the size and quality of the stickers make up for it.

"Brilliant and easy to use!!"
I received a 'space' set to transform my boys room.
There were 4 sheets of stickers, planets, a rocket,a moon,earth and loads of stars.
I was worried about how well they would stick, as due to having bad walls we have chip paper. I needn't have worried as the chips in the paper add more effect to the stickers.
They stick easily, and are easy peel off to move them.
I did slightly tear a couple when removing them from the backing sheet, but it couldnt be noticed once they were on the wall.
I loved this set and it has completely transformed my boys room.
I would recommend these to a friend and may buy some in the future to re-decorate my daughters room.

"Brillian Product, Good Value"
When the kit arrived i was very impressed by the packaging and the overall condition that it arrived in...mint condition.We tested the "funky flowers "kit.
The kit is in a medium sized box with a removable outer sleve so you can re use the box which the girls have done al ready!!!
The stickers are in 5 rolls.They are very easy to remove from the backing paper.
Also i was shocked by how large the stickers are so i decided to make over the girls room and alice mays too.
The instructions say you should apply the stickers to painted walls but the girls rooms are wallpaperd so i was a bit worried.But thought i'd give it a go.
WOW fantastic results!!!!!!
The stickers stuck to the walls brilliantly and i used the little smoother that is supplied to smooth them on and there are no lumps or bumps. They are lovely and really have made a difference to quite plain rooms.
The girls love there flowery walls and sit by the main wall with their bratz dools pretending they are in a garden!!
Alice may is now sleeping in her cot in her room and im sure its because it brighter and cheerier.
She loves them too and points at the caterpillars on the walls and kisses the flowers!!
An absolutly brilliant product,good value and durable to
I'd definitely recommened these to my friends.

"Great size, easy to apply"
When the kit arrived I was so excited as Adam had never had his room decorated, due to being moved around when I was pregnant with each of the girls. For the past year he has been in his bedroom but it has wallpaper put up when we moved in. He was desperate to make it into a 'boys room' so this kit seemed ideal.
It arrived in a well wrapped box and was well presented. Within the box was 4 sheets of huge stickers and a smoother to help with applying the stickers. I showed Adam the stickers and he was so excited he asked if he could help to put them up. I was a little apprehensive about this but they are so easy to use he was able to do it and spent time painstakingly smoothing them out. He absolutely loved the fact he was helping to transform his bedroom. I was a little disappointed with the stickers as some tore slightly while coming off the paper, however this may have been due to the Disney Cars having some fiddly bits to them. Once up on the wall you couldnt notice the tears.
The room looked completely different when finished and is definetly a little boys room. Adam thinks the stickers are great and he said the cars are his friends and they help him to sleep! He was so excited about the room he asked to go to bed at 2pm, although I had to get him to wait a while longer.
The stickers have now been up for 2 weeks and the only further niggle I have had with them is that I have to occasionally brush them down again. I dont know if this is because they have been applied onto wallpaper but they start to lift a little at the edges. However seeing as Adam loves to talk to the cars of a night he has also now taken to lovingly stroking them before bed.

"Simple to use with effective results"
Yay, the Disney Princess kit finally arrived this morning and I don't know who was more excited, me (as I just couldn't wait to get started) or India (who loved the packaging and the pictures of the Disney Princesses on the box.)
Anyhow I've given it a go and I must say I would recommend this kit to anyone who is looking for a quick and very easy way to make over a little ones bedroom with really effective results. The kit itself comes well packaged and on the outer carton it tells you what stickers are contained within the kit along with the sizes but I must be honest and say I really didn't give the size of the stickers much thought, I just wanted to get on with it and started sticking !
The stickers come on 5 rolled sheets and my initial thought was that they were going to curl up and have kinks in them due to been rolled up but this definitely wasn't the case. When removing the stickers there were moments when part of the sticker would stick to another section of the sticker but they pulled apart easily without causing any damage and you couldn't even see that this had happened. There were no kinks or curls when applying the stickers to the wall and even any little air bubbles were easily removed with a scrapey thing they supplied with the kit (I'm not sure what you would call it). Even India had a go at helping mummy put the stickers on the wall.
The stickers were really easy to remove from the backing sheet and apply to the wall surface, there were 2 moments when I nearly beheaded a horse due to removing the sticker too fast and I nearly lost a Princess hand but that really was my own doing, the stickers peel away from the backing sheet with ease and as long as you take it slowly round any smaller sections you really shouldn't have a problem. My two little mishaps aren't even visible now the stickers are on the wall.
The stickers are easy to peel from the wall surface to be re-positioned and I did this quite a few times especially if I didn't get them quite central or level. There was only one instance when a bit of paint was removed due to the sticker coming off the wall but I think this is more to do with the quality of the paint rather than anything else. Even the little nail marks I left on the sticker due to easing it away from the wall are no longer visible once reapplied.
There are more than enough stickers in the Disney Princess kit, I've only used about two thirds so far and I thought I'd let hubby have a go when he gets in from work. The stickers are also ideal to use to put around existing pictures in the room just to tie them in, I did this with some of Ariels underwater bubbles.
I would like to say a really big thank you to the baby website and Fun to See for allowing us to test the Disney Princess Room Makeover kit, it really is dead simple to use and it has transformed my little one's bedroom. I think I'll definitely be investing in another kit to use in the playroom. Thanks once again and I'll post some pics xxx
