No theme decisions for us yet but quick question - Are you using the dwell elephant bedding from Target? Its adorable!
I haven't decided. I really like it too since it's modern looking and not to baby-looking. I went to Target but they didn't have it in store--I wanted to check out the quality.
I also saw an elephant humidifer that will fit the theme.
I love the target sheets. I'll proballly pick up a few so I have a matching variety.
I like the ones from JCP better, only because I think I want to stay with the light blues. Check out the Dwell Studio bedding from Target too. It's really cute, and I like that you can buy the items separately.
We just found out we are team blue and are in the process of redoing the room that will be the nursery. We are going to do a room with accents of elephants. Most of the bedding with elephants was really adorable, but didnt have the colors that I wanted overall. Here is what i have accumulated along the way with planning so far... other than what has already been mentioned above...

That is cute... good find! Thanks for sharing. I think we might go with the RH baby bedding here, which is not elephants but is along the color lines we are looking for... and then accent it with elephants. until we buy it though... it could change 10 times over.
I didn't want anything with too much of a theme, I wanted it to be blue and the blue had to go with the mint green walls we already have painted. I found the Eli Elephant online but wanted to see it in person and it's so adorable. It's elegant but not too babyish. It looked even more adorable in person. I went from wanting just plain blue from carters to this. It has a lot of texture. I want to say they're discontinuing it because they brought in another animal theme but when we went to the store they were able to track down everything we wanted...bumper, sheet, skirt, quilt, and mobile. We also bought a white ceramic elephant lamp base (will put light blue shade on it) and a white ceramic elephant bank. There's also a bunch of items online at esty and ebay that people sell that coordinates with this set. Wish I could show you the nursery put together but we're just getting some of the pieces and hopefully in a couple of weeks we'll be further along. Not sure when the furniture will come in either so I'm not really helpful in that way.
Re: Elephant theme
I just found out that I am also on team blue and the elephant theme is the way that I want to go too.
Here are two types of bedding that I am undecided on yet:
JCPenny - Elephant Stitch

Sears - Mod Elephants

I also have been keeping an eye out for wall decals and I LOVE the ones that have the elephants linked by tails and trunks.

For the shower I was thinking of having center pieces made of towels folded like an elephant. (Think cruise ship style.) I also want to hand make invitations similiar to this:

I love the target sheets. I'll proballly pick up a few so I have a matching variety.
Here are a couple of elephant things I've come across:
Elephant Wallpaper Decal
Elephant Mobile

We have this and love it!

I love the decals! We have similar taste. I too like the bedding from PB but wish it was a tad more modern. I found this if you are interested:

You can also buy the sheet separately if you want to mix and match.
Cute! Thanks for sharing!!

Not 100% elephant alone, but I LOVE this fabric from Valori Wells, it's part of her "Urban Flannel" line:
I've ordered some of the fabric so I can make a receiving blanket. Can't wait!
