Thank you all! These ideas are wonderful! I love the leaf canopy, and the idea of covering the cot bumpers with my own choice of fabric. All brilliant stuff! I have shown hubby all the replies and he is liking all the ideas too! Thanks!!! Xxx

(make sure they're attached well) Make a rug out of red furry fabric to look like an apple or ikea often do round red and green ones which may look like apples.

I love this theme! Wonderful! I am very uncreative but can't help with that but Trentham Gardens in Staffordshire has lots of Hungry Caterpillar stuff - mobiles etc. I saw it all when I was about 10 weeks so didn't want to buy but I'll be back some point soon!!! Good luck with it xx
