Modern Nursery- which sheet sets?

TX-Bride · February 2013

I was planning to go with a grey/white and yellow theme until I found these skiphop sets at Marshall's for an awesome deal, but can't decide which one to go with.

The nursery would be midcentury modern, a basic white crib, eames molded rocking chair (yet to buy, I can buy it in white or blue), white dresser. I have not purchased any accessories per se, except a grey felt basket and some off white decorative objects. I still don't have any art work for the wall either. The room is painted very light grey.

So which one you think would go better with the mood I am trying to achieve:

Mod Dot

Alphabet Zoo

Lattice Brown

I realize they have too much brown in them, which I am not too fond of, but I guess I can down play it a bit with other accesories.

If you want a modern nursery I think the first set is your best option. I also like that incorporates the grey which is hard to make work with all the brown in each of these sets.

I have the first one (Mod Dot) and love it. I went a slightly different route than you, but I have pics in my blog if you would like to see. I love that beddin and think it would best or what you are going for.

Thank you for sharing your photos. Your nursery is very cute!

The more I look at the pictures, I agree with you all that the mod dot would be a better choice.

the first one screams mid century modern to me

we have an eames chair, and a sheepskin from IKEA in it which makes it really comfy. I though it was interesting to learn that the rocker was actually given as a gift by the Eames' to their employees when they had babies!

I was planning on buying the IKEA shipskin, too! And that's so interesting about the Eames rocking chairs! Learn something new everyday. BTW, I also found Overstock now sells the Eames elephants, for a lot less, I think the y are knock offs, but really good looking knock offs and thinking about getting one of those for the nursery, too.
