GP Mama Question- What did u pay for bedding?

I posted this on 2nd tri too, but I know a lot of the GP mama's hang out here.

I LOVE the bedding by Serena & Lily called Alex, but it's $465 for the 3 pience set. I found a woman who can make it and will do so for $300. Still seems so expensive. What are you all paying for your nursery bedding?

  • ygpm...

    We got our bedding at Toys R us, it was regular 140 (or something like it) and got it on sale for like 89.99....so it was pretty good!

  • I had mine custom made and it was about $200...that included sheet, bumper, quilt, skirt and little pillow.

  • well I know it's early to buy bedding but I couldn't pass us the deal. I got an amy Coe set at bru for 75percent off. It normally would have Cost 350ish but I paid 80 bucks and I love it. It's a neutral chocolate brown

    We're lucky that my mom can sew, so she's making our crib bedding. I think the cost of the fabric came out to about $50.

    P.S. I LOVE what  you did for Henry's name. I might steal that idea.

  • I can't remember exactly, but it was between $150 - $200

  • I think ours was like 250 at BRU. We didn't buy it though. If we'd been buying it instead of my dad, we would have ebayed it and gotten it cheaper. :)

  • I will be making my own cribskirt, curtains, and bumper, possibly a blanket/quilt to match. So it shouldn't cost me more than $20-30 for materials. I cannot even think to spend that much on bedding as I've seen on some sites...

    I have lots of handmedown crib sheets and I can make the changing pad cover too.

  • We aren't doing a coordinated bedding set. It would have been too hard to match bedding to how we painted the room (pics in gp mamas blog or in blog in siggy), and painting a room to match a blanket seemed to be putting the cart ahead of the horse in our opinion. She will be sleeping in a swaddle or sleep sack for a lot of time in the beginning anyway, and we aren't using a bumper in the beginning (and will get a breathable one later). A good friend is making a baby quilt that we might use later as well.

    Basically, we're just registering for sheets. I've been told by pretty much everybody we'll get lots of soft blankets as gifts. I plan on (hopefully) making a crib skirt to match curtains so that we can do some storage under the crib.

    I found her on Etsy...SeamsByGwenny. She is awesome and will work with you if you want something other than her "pattern". I ordered my own fabric and had it sent to her so the price was less than it is listed on her listings...if that makes sense.

    My mom and I are making mine.  My mom will be crocheting a bumper and matching blanket--I don't like commercial ones they aren't breathable enough for me.  Then I'll either be buying a skirt or making one to match the blanket and bumper.

    How did you locate her? When I type it in the search it wont pop up.

  • we looked for a really long time to find bedding we liked. figures we fell in love with a set for $450, and there was no way we were spending that. so we decided to just buy the crib sheets and get a plain bumper that matched. no crib skirt, no quilt. we got the bumper at our shower ($20), and are buying 3 crib sheets, each $30.

    THe link worked. Thank you!!  Looks like she did a good job on your set so I'm excited to contact her.

  • Well...I'm not the best example. We spent over $300 on our PBK bedding. Embarrassed That included the quilt, crib skirt, bumper, 3 crib sheets, & sham/mini pillow. I know alot of it is impractical, but it's super cute & since it's gender neutral we can use it will all of our babies. That was my rationale in spending so much....

  • I bought at JCP and it was $199 on sale for $160, plus I had a coupon code.  I think it ended up being $130.  I couldn't stomach anything over $200.

  • I haven't yet, but my mom is going to make mine. ?We've picked out a pattern, but not the fabric yet. ?

  • We went crazy with DD.  We spent about $700 total.  We bought the bedding set which included the quilt (which is hanging on the wall), sheets,  dust ruffle and bumper.  We also bought matching curtains, valance, pillows, baskets and wall hangings.  Like I said, we went crazy.  Her room is gorgeous and I wouldn't change a thing!  We specifically bought bedding and decorated her room so it was something she could grown into and have for a long time.  It is not very babyish but it helped to justify the money.

  • $130 before shipping for DS's set, we bought it from JCPenny's.  I am a bargain hunter.
  • Being so early on I haven't even thought about this.  But I am curious about bedding as my brother had NO bedding for any of his kids--just had a sheet covering the crib mattress.  No bumpers, blankets, etc. at all based on safety concerns-is anyone NOT going to do any special bedding for baby?
