We borrowed my SIL’s basket for each of the boys (never bothered with a basket for Eve) and she very kindly bought us a swanky new matress to go into it, which I used for both Noah and Thom.  So it had about 5 months use in total.  Any ideas what I could do with it?  It’s not the done thing to sell or pass on matresses, is it, but does anyone?  It has a zip off washabble cover and really looks immaculate.  Can’t bring myself to just bin it.
Could make it into a garden kneeler, I suppose, but not sure I’d use it.  (If you would let me know & it’s yours…..!)
Thanks.

I’m already using one as a garden kneeler, but perhaps you could dismantle it and use the stuffing for toys etc.  I already have my eye on our changing mat that is falling to pieces, all that foam I can use :D

I second Freecycle. As long as you are upfront about how much (or little) use it has had then people can make up their own minds.
