I am obsessed...help me with bedding
OK trying to go gender neutral. I made the cutest owl mobile (out of baby socks). The only bedding I could find was Dwell studios. It looks very boy to me and I am not a big mod fan.
The other is from PBK...Haley. It is organic and multi-colored. DH wants organic for sure and says who cares....its a little baby. Please look and tell me if I can get away with these sheets? I am doing a white with brown trim skirt and lamps....trying to die down the pink

This is a second option...but not organic

Re: I am obsessed...help me with bedding
I would go with the second set. WIth fabric, so long as it is washed I am less concerned with it being organic - very different from let's say ... a mattress that will off-gas.
The first set screams girl. Whether you feel that is a big deal is your call; your baby won't care.

I like the first one more, but it does look a tad more "girlie". I personally would go with it if I liked it best, regardless of the sex of the baby. (I'm waiting to find out until birth, too....) Grown (straight) men wear pink shirts and ties, so why can't a baby boy have a teeny bit of pink on his bedding?
)
Can you google "owl crib bedding" and search Google's "shopping" page? I'm pretty sure I saw an owl set (brand new) on Ebay.
Also, I heard earlier today on thebump that most people only use the sheets in bedding sets, so it may be more logical to just buy owl sheets now, and get a set if you really need the other stuff later..... (lots of people are forgoing bumpers due to SIDS risk, or you can buy a mesh bumper so the baby can breath but not get legs/arms stuck.)
Good luck!
Sorry, you'll have to copy and paste because I don't know how to make it a working link yet.

If you are just using the sheets, I think that you can get away with both as gender nuetral, and I like the first option better.
If you are looking at getting both the bumper and the sheets, I would go with option 2.
