150 Years Of Beatrix Potter Celebrated At Mothercare - Time For a Classic With Peter Rabbit!

I loved Beatrix Potter when I was little and enjoyed looking at my copies of her books all lined up on my shelf almost as much as the stories inside them. They were vintage ones that my Mum had picked up in a charity shop I think and I thought their uniformity was absolutely perfect. I think my favourite tale was Jemima Puddleduck’s because I loved her name and I was also rather fond of Jeremy Fisher.

I don’t have those books anymore or if I have then they are buried deep within my Mum’s loft and not likely to see the light of day any time soon. But, what’s great hat the traditional style of the covers hasn’t changed at all and the books you buy today still look like the vintage originals even if they’re not.

Of course, along side them there are other products for this day and age but rather wonderfully they all still have that same lovely old-fashioned charm. And this year, would you believe, marks 150 years since the birth of Beatrix Potter so vintage really is the right word when it comes to talking about her work. Still loved today as much as it ever was it’s no wonder there are so many celebrations all over the country to mark the occasion and showing off her best loved character Peter Rabbit. Mothercare is one of the partners for the 150th birthday celebrations and has a whole new Peter Rabbit collection with all that gorgeous charm we expect that everyone is shouting about.

I love Mothercare’s style and they haven’t disappointed with the Beatrix Potter and Peter Rabbit offerings. Their exclusive collection of baby clothing, bedding, nursery furniture and gifts are adorable and they sent me a lovely little hamper for Easter with some of the new products inside – hey’re just gorgous! Look!

I just wanted to say thanks to Mothercare, especially for that lovely little Peter! My brother had one when he was a baby and bought one for each of my children when they were born. Because we have our own well loved Peters already I shall be giving this one to a very special friend of mine who is about to have her baby any day now. She will also be dressing him or her up in the delightful baby grows. They’re SO soft!

How gorge are these! And I love the commemorative 50 pence piece too!

I can’t wait to see my friend and give her soe of these wonderful gifts and I can’t wait even more to see her new baby wearing those grows! Ah, if I wasn’t broody already I’d certainly be now!

Thanks Mothercare for sending me such a delightful hamper and we love the products!
