DD1; ABC and DD2: owls </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-decide-on-bedding-for-my-toddler-and-baby#post-1884674 Wed, 01 Oct 2014 15:11:22 +0000 Mrs. Tiger 1884674@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>As someone who as relied on mostly hand me down, non matching sheets (to include zebra stripes and super Mario bros) for the boys, I say buy the first one you see at the store :)</p> <p>I voted birdhouses/tree though! All cute options :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-decide-on-bedding-for-my-toddler-and-baby#post-1884569 Wed, 01 Oct 2014 14:08:28 +0000 cmomma17 1884569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ree723: haha, okay, I can see that :) I vote letters then! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-decide-on-bedding-for-my-toddler-and-baby#post-1884547 Wed, 01 Oct 2014 13:52:36 +0000 Ree723 1884547@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks all - loving the opinions and the votes!</p> <p>@Smurfette: Thanks! </p> <p>@cmomma17: I've tried showing them to her to gauge a preference, but she just seems to like them all! I don't think she quite gets the concept that this is for her bed, in her room, in our new house that we haven't moved into yet.</p> <p>@Mrs. High Heels: That's what I was kind of thinking too! She does love letters and I can see her in bed, chatting to herself as she finds different letters whilst she's supposed to be sleeping!</p> <p>@photojane: I love the bird houses too - I don't know where my sudden fascination with birds has come from, maybe the fact that every second thing in the shops right now has a bird design, but I'm obsessed and I can't get past these darling little bird houses! I also think I may be able to tie in some of the things from her old nursery if we go with the bird houses as her nursery was Peter Rabbit and it would kind of go...maybe?</p> <p>@Baby Boy Mom: Good point - I think that's where I'm getting caught up - the things I like the most don't necessarily go with their personalities. DD1 is a very sweet, gentle soul - we call refer to her as our delicate flower at times, whereas DD2 is a feisty one! Happy as happy can be but when she doesn't get her way, she makes sure everyone knows about it! :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-decide-on-bedding-for-my-toddler-and-baby#post-1884507 Wed, 01 Oct 2014 13:38:59 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 1884507@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They're all really cute. I would think about what their personalities are like...sweet? cuddly? Feisty? Calm? Etc... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-decide-on-bedding-for-my-toddler-and-baby#post-1884443 Wed, 01 Oct 2014 13:03:07 +0000 photojane 1884443@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think they're all cute! I'd get the birdhouses for DD1 &amp; the purple and white with the tree for DD2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-decide-on-bedding-for-my-toddler-and-baby#post-1884432 Wed, 01 Oct 2014 12:59:03 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1884432@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For DD1, I loved both 3 and 4, but voted 4 (ABC letters) bc my DD never gets tired of letters, and I see it as a learning opportunity in a bed. :wink: </p> <p>For DD2, I voted 2 (white and lavender butterflies) bc I liked that design the best! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-decide-on-bedding-for-my-toddler-and-baby#post-1884361 Wed, 01 Oct 2014 12:29:31 +0000 cmomma17 1884361@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Does the 27 month old have an opinion? Does she love bears, owls, letters, etc? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-decide-on-bedding-for-my-toddler-and-baby#post-1884349 Wed, 01 Oct 2014 12:22:58 +0000 Smurfette 1884349@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They are all so cute!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-decide-on-bedding-for-my-toddler-and-baby#post-1884347 Wed, 01 Oct 2014 12:21:55 +0000 Ree723 1884347@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bumping for some more votes and opinions! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-decide-on-bedding-for-my-toddler-and-baby#post-1883987 Wed, 01 Oct 2014 09:33:27 +0000 Ree723 1883987@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am quite possibly the world's most indecisive person and have been tasked with purchasing the majority of items for our new house. I couldn't even begin to tell you how many hours I have spent looking at bedroom sets for my girls, but suffice to say, it's been a lot! I've narrowed it down to four options for each and am now at a stalemate. I'd love some opinions on the bedding options for my 27 month old DD and nearly 8 month old DD - they'll be in their own rooms for now so no need to match or complement each other!</p> <p>For DD1 in a twin bed:<br /> Option 1: pink and grey bears<br /> Option 2: owls<br /> Option 3: birdhouses<br /> Option 4: letters</p> <p>For DD2 in a cot that will transition to a toddler bed:<br /> Option 1: pink and white bird with picket fence trim<br /> Option 2: white and lavender butterflies<br /> Option 3: white with tree and bird<br /> Option 4: owls (the toddler version of DD1's option but we wouldn't get it for DD2 if we bought it for DD1)</p> <p>[attach=1312/14/ncrsfs.400x400.image.jpg]</p> <p>[attach=1312/14/ncrsfu.600x600.image.jpg]</p> <p>[attach=1312/14/ncrsfw.600x490.image.jpg]</p> <p>[attach=1312/14/ncrsfy.525x600.image.jpg]</p> <p>[attach=1312/14/ncrsg0.499x600.image.jpg]</p> <p>[attach=1312/14/ncrsg1.346x346.image.jpg]</p> <p>[attach=1312/14/ncrsg3.550x550.image.jpg]</p> <p>[attach=1312/14/ncrsg5.600x600.image.jpg]</p> <p>ETA: some of the pictures are a bit garish, especially the last one, but we will not be doing matching curtains, rugs, wallpaper etc - it would just be the duvet set and then complementary solid colours in the room. We like a somewhat muted look, albeit fun and interesting for our babies. We only plan on getting a few years out of this bedding and will buy something new when they're maybe 4 or 5, so it doesn't matter if it's babyish because it won't follow them up through primary school. </p>
