Opinions please - could I make this boyish?

On my other board, everybody said no because there?s pink in the pattern of the bedding, but I was thinking of replacing the bottom crib skirt with a grey or yellow one. And maybe espresso furniture instead of white. And then below is the inspiration, which I think could go both ways - boy or girl. Let me know what you think. TIA

Even with the grey skirt... the pink would stand out like a sore toe.

Is it the grey and yellow combo you like? maybe we can help you find something boyish along those lines...

Yeah, I think it is the yellow grey combo that I love.

My back up and favorite before seeing this one is the Dwellstudio Owl bedding. I most likely will end up getting that one, because nothing else has really caught my eye.

How about something like this? (minus the flowers on the walls)

mj.reilly:

I don't think so. The pattern and the pink ties just screams feminine to me, even if you did a lot of masculine stuff in the room and change the sheets to blue.

Sorry. The pattern is gorgeous though. I prefer the Dwell girl patterns over the boy.

This.

If you like the black/yellow/gray combination, go to www.modpeapod.com and design your own. They have multiple fabrics in this colorscheme that would make AWESOME bedding. Just click on Fabric Swatches for Boys. There is one at the bottom of the first page and quite a few on the second page. Good luck!!

Sorry, but I think no matter how you go, this looks like a girl

I have to agree with everyone, this looks like a pretty feminine print. I love the inspiration you posted, I've used that same nursery as inspiration as well!
