Jessica Phelps, of Mishawaka, Indiana recently won a dream nursery gift package worth approximately $1,800.

In October, Dave Cestaro, Vice President of Customer Services at Burlington Coat Factory, met with Jessica in their Mishawaka store to present her with the prize. The prize package includes everything needed to create a dream nursery fit for any little prince or princess, including a complete a Disney bedding set, a musical mobile, diaper stacker, wall valances, bottle, bibs, and much more. To complete the dream room, a Disney artist will complete a custom wall mural in Ms. Phelps home. As far as learning that she'd won the "Jungle Friends" themed nursery, Phelps says, "It was amazing. I was so happy." She has already set up the room that will welcome the newest addition to her family who is due to arrive this December. "We are extremely happy that Jessica will be able to decorate her nursery with quality, imaginative nursery decor that incorporates Disney's beloved stories," says Daniel Ifcher, director of Infant Furnishings for Disney Consumer Products.
