I really want to decide on bedding but I can't!! I fell in love with the Little Tree Bedding several of you had posted, but DH didn't like it. He wants a sports theme, but I vetoed that so we are trying to meet in the middle.
I am having a hard time because I don't want a 4-pc or 6-pc set. I want to buy things piece by piece (e.g. buy sheets, rug, lamp, etc) and I have no use for the bumper, comforter, or dust ruffle. We hung DD's comforter on the wall and it is still there, but I don't need that. Her bumper is on her closet floor and since the crib has to come halfway apart to raise and lower the mattress, I am just leaving it down. By the time LO sleeps in there, it will have to come up 2-3 months later (DD pulled to standing by about 7 months).
What do you think of this? And/ or post your boy bedding!!!!!

WOW that's long...but I love the theme. We'll use other patterned blues/whites to supplement the sheets and whatnot, but I will definitely buy this. Plus there's a lot of cute Etsy wall decals that I love that'll go perfectly with the set.
If you know you don't want some pieces, definitely don't waste money on a set and find a store that has separates. Are you anywhere near a Burlington Coat Factory that has a Baby Depot inside? They sell a ton of bedding with the accessories like rugs, lamps, mobiles, etc.
I would start with choosing cute crib sheets,, and then get things that coordinate along with it in color or theme.
Another idea-check out not only the baby bedding aisle but the kids decor aisle at Target (like for a big boy room), because I was surprised when I did. They had some very cute curtains, lamps, and decor that would go great in a baby's room as well but just wasn't in that same section.
some cute boy crib sheets-

Edit- I forgot to say I like your animal theme. For my baby boy's room , we are not really doing an exact theme, just primary colors-but we will have some animals in the room too.
We aren't buying a set, just putting the sheet and a white breathable bumper in the crib. This is my favorite crib sheet, it's a little blurry but it's by Carters-
