I like both of those options. They are each definitely two different styles. I personally like the treetop friends one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-198820 Fri, 22 Jun 2012 06:54:20 +0000 hilsy85 198820@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrskc: I was going to say that we'd narrowed it down the chevron and the pbk elephants...but then DH nixed the elephants and said he prefered something with green in it (?!?!). Sooo now these two are in the mix : <a href="http://www.rosenberryrooms.com/512-modern-berries-motif-three-piece-crib-set-in-spring-green.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.rosenberryrooms.com/512-modern-berries-motif-three-piece-crib-set-in-spring-green.html</a> </p> <p><a href="http://www.rosenberryrooms.com/173-treetop-friends-complete-sheet-4-piece-set.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.rosenberryrooms.com/173-treetop-friends-complete-sheet-4-piece-set.html</a> </p> <p>I may have to do a new poll soon, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-196059 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 10:09:50 +0000 mrskc 196059@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilsy85: Which two have you narrowed it down to? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-195880 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 07:01:21 +0000 hilsy85 195880@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sweet T: my concern was also that it's a bit muted but then I figure I can add pops of color with decor and such. </p> <p>Thanks so much ladies :) I think we've narrowed it down to two, and I'll let DH make the final decision. Yay! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-195852 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 01:13:18 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 195852@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LOVE THE CHEVRON! SO CUTE! IT IS MY FAVORITE!!!!!!</p> <p>I do love the elephant print though too... I fell in love with it when @cvbee bought it and shared a pic with us! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-195755 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 20:54:22 +0000 Sweet T 195755@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I voted for #4. I love the elephants and the bright colors. I also think the bright colors would go great with the gray striped walls or even a light blue striped wall.</p> <p>My second choice would be the chevron but I think it would be better if the colors were brighter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-195747 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 20:47:37 +0000 lovehoneybee 195747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The chevron is my favorite. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-195739 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 20:35:45 +0000 cyneswith 195739@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like the stuff Cocobee posted best! Of your choices, I think the chevrons work best. The first two options were very bland, and the last was so busy (I think if it hadn't had the green, it would've been my top pick. </p> <p>And yeah, definitely the wedding dress of the baby world... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-195728 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 20:22:16 +0000 MsMini 195728@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am also a fan of the chevron bedding, I like to keep things more clean though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-195713 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 20:10:21 +0000 hilsy85 195713@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>bumping for opinions from any night hellobee-ers :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-195176 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 13:33:51 +0000 mrskc 195176@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilsy85: heh, I'm not that crafty. I haven't sewn anything in years! But I've found some very simple tutorials for crib skirts, so I think I can manage that. I've even seen some tutorials using hem tape. No sewing required! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-195078 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 12:31:37 +0000 Periwinkle 195078@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We both love the elephants! That's one of our choices as well. I think it is so happy and bright and I just love it. All of your choices are great, though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-195069 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 12:22:17 +0000 hilsy85 195069@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrskc: I love that set too! I am jealous of your craftiness, I have no idea how to sew :) </p> <p>@MsLipGloss: hmm that is true! He's only going to be a baby once :) </p> <p>@cvbee: You are SO RIGHT. Just like picking out a newborn photographer gets the same amount of obsession for me that a wedding photographer got, lol :) I remember that you had said you have the skip hop elephant set--good to know that the blanket is useful! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-195008 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 11:41:21 +0000 MsLipGloss 195008@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I *puffy heart with glitter* the elephants . . . your LO has plenty of time to be all modern, clean, and sleek later. :)</p> <p>I am also partial to PBK bedding . . . I just ordered the Hayley set for my little girl. It is so much more girly and babyish than what I ever thought I would do!</p> <p>ETA: And still has visual interest without the bumper . . . I feel you on that! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-194981 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 11:19:12 +0000 mrskc 194981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilsy85: No I haven't picked out bedding yet. My inspiration for the nursery is this Michael Miller Zoology fabric: <a href="http://www.babybedding.com/gray-zoology-crib-bedding" rel="nofollow">http://www.babybedding.com/gray-zoology-crib-bedding</a> </p> <p>I don't think I'm going to buy the bedding set. Maybe do a plain sheet and make a skirt out of the zoology fabric. I haven't decided yet though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-194951 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 10:48:10 +0000 cvbee 194951@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like crib bedding is to baby-shopping what the wedding gown is to wedding-shopping. </p> <p>If you go with the skip-hop then we will be 'dress' twins. For me, it was love at first sight. (Originally I wanted pure white bedding, but when I saw these elephants I couldn't resist). I love the way it gives the look of a bumper without one. And so you know, I use the blanket for everything....it has this soft velvet on the back and seems just the right size and weight for so many needs (stroller, tummy time...I have even had success making a swaddle out of it!). My baby likes a swaddle so I haven't used the sleep sack yet, but it is quite large and I anticipate using it in a few months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-194932 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 10:30:07 +0000 hilsy85 194932@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrskc: have you picked out your bedding yet? I feel like this is such a hard decision for me, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-194916 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 10:15:23 +0000 mrskc 194916@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I voted for the PBK elephant bedding. That could be b/c I love all the elephant stuff. I'm doing elephants in my boy's nursery. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-194915 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 10:15:16 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 194915@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i voted chevron. i think it's a clean look and not too baby-ish (im not a fan of animal bedding in nurseries) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-194911 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 10:10:14 +0000 Mrs. Pen 194911@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilsy85: oh I didn't see the skirt... I loved the sheets though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-194907 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 10:08:58 +0000 hilsy85 194907@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Coco Bee: I love that one as well, but the crib skirt is pretty plain, and since we're not doing a bumper, I feel like we need more "visual interest" if that makes sense? But I love the simplicity of that one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-194905 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 10:07:25 +0000 Mrs. Pen 194905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>okay you have cute choices!!</p> <p>I love all the elephant themed stuff going on, but I *personally* like this elephant set more, I'm partial to navy: <a href="http://www.potterybarnkids.com/products/harper-elephant-nursery-bedding-navy/?pkey=bboys-nursery-bedding" rel="nofollow">http://www.potterybarnkids.com/products/harper-elephant-nursery-bedding-navy/?pkey=bboys-nursery-bedding</a></p> <p>Otherwise I LOVE the chevron!! We did bright green chevron in my sons room and it's so fun!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-194897 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 10:01:23 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 194897@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the pbk elephant bedding </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-194886 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 09:56:51 +0000 chrispygal 194886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilsy85: Just the corners I believe but it fits our crib mattress perfectly and very snugly. We got the Daisy Garden bedding in lavender. We are having a girl obviously. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-194878 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 09:53:55 +0000 heffalump 194878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love the monkeys! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-194870 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 09:45:58 +0000 hilsy85 194870@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chrispygal: which set do you have? and is there elastic all the way around on your sheets or just on the corners? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-194819 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 09:03:01 +0000 Alivoo01 194819@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the chevron, but not sure how it goes with the striped walls so I picked the skip hop elephants instead. Both are adorable though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-194783 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 08:28:56 +0000 chrispygal 194783@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I loooooooove my PBK bedding so I voted for the monkeys. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-194773 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 08:25:34 +0000 hilsy85 194773@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjyw: seriously, carousel bedding (babybedding.com) has SO many adorable options and you can even custom design your own (which was way too overwhelming for me, but a fun way to spend a few hours!). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-crib-bedding#post-194770 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 08:24:08 +0000 mrsjyw 194770@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love the Chevron! :) Putting it on my list of options :) </p>
