For Sale - Beetlebum Half Buckle Baby Carrier and matching nappy.
The BC is predominantly black with a Frida Kahlo design. I purchased it via Auction from Michelle from WC. The nappy is an ISO with the same Frida Kahlo design.
Barely used here as I prefered my Bamberoo (more padding).
DD or PP accepted.
Happy to do a layby if money is tight.
Will only send registered post as I would find it very sad if this beautiful b/c was lost in the mail.
Price is $150. this includes the matching ISO nappy size Large. It does NOT include post.

This is a photo of it from the BB website.

No, I have no intention of ripping people off. It is in excellent condition but it is second hand so I don't think I should be greedy.
I really would like someone to enjoy this gorgeous b/c & nappy.

I have washed all the B/C's I have had at either 30 degrees or cold on a wool cycle. I use earth choice wool wash. So spin cycle is 700 rpm.
When I had my K/M's I put them in a lingerie bag as well, because of the delicate silk.

I don't put them in full sun.

I wash mine in a pillow case in cold, very small amount of lux flakes, dry flat in the shade.

Regards with washing

I contacted Mel when I wanted to wash my new MF BB as I usually just fling my carriers on a handwash cycle or cold wash in the machine, but this one was too precious

She suggested colour catchers in the machine
delicate cold wash cycle with a little mild liquid detergent.
Dry flat in the shade.
I only had cold or delicate so used the delicate 30 on my machine with 3 colour catchers and was on pins the whole time but it came out fine..

Congrats too the new owner

Sounds good to me. I dry flat in the shade also. I have a front loader & it is very good. As you can imagine I was very careful with my silk patchwork KM's. I cannot remember now if I used the wool cycle or the silk cycle but putting it in the lingerie bag protected it. Would not wash over 30 degrees over over 700rpm.
