They came in such handy! They held up for a long time too. I don't have any of them now, because six years would really be pushing it with 7-8 year olds :)!! If I had the patience to sew, I could have probably fixed or replace them along the way. You will love having these in your room.<br /><br />JamieAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12035425870127091696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9046764195499861131.post-6999857983105218992015-06-23T02:32:50.732-10:002015-06-23T02:32:50.732-10:00That is great!
