Phil And Teds Stroller – Is It Just A Fashion Accessory For Some Mothers?

November 17th, 2009 Leave a comment Go to comments

The answer to this question rather depends on the mother! What I mean by that is how it is used. If you just want a top branded stroller that everybody knows is expensive, go out and get all the accessories and cover it with a bit of bling then yes, it is a fashion statement. However, even if you do that but take baby out every day for a good walk then I would suggest you are just personalising your Phil and Teds Stroller and know darn well what you should be doing with it!

Customising your stroller is actually quite a fun thing to do and there are several ways you can do this. Buy or recover a sun parasol in some snazzy fabric and decorate it how you please, but do be careful if there are any loose bits that baby can’t get hold of them. You can also put those wonderful LCD lights in the wheels so you can be seen more easily if you are often out in the dark. If you are really artistic, jazz up the covers with some waterproof (you may be out in the rain!) paints.

A great way to make your stroller individual is to have a customised name plate for it! Not well known, but for around $12 you can choose from several designs or send your own image in. Just add the name and this little 3 x 9 reflective badge will make your stroller stand out from the rest! There are others on the market for a lot more ($40 plus), but you can get the cheaper versions on Ebay.

I’m sure there are plenty more things you can think of to decorate your stroller, but do keep in mind how the buggy functions and safety as they must be your primary concern. I look forward to seeing a few Phil and Teds strollers out there with personalities of their own rather than them just being a fashion accessory!
