Breathable Bumpers?

Does anyone know a good website or store that has cute breathable bumpers? I'm having a hard time with purchasing a whole bedding set when I know I'll end up not using the bumpers. 

What are you ladies doing?

    We aren't going to purchase a full bedding set, either. We decided on doing some wall decals like a mural on the nursery walls, and thought a full-bedding set would be overkill, and we wouldn't use the bumpers or quilt. So we're going to find coordinating fabric to make a crib skirt and window treatment, and then buy sheets and a breathable bumper separately. I haven't really started looking at the bumpers yet but so far, the only ones I've seen are solid colors. I hope someone else has some suggestions on places to look, too!

    I got some Carter's separates on Amazon, just sheets and a skirt. I paid like $37 for 3 sheets and a coordinating dust ruffle (with a $10 off coupon from a magazine).

    Any particular reason you want breathable bumpers? I have a 1 year old and have never understood the need for them.

    Health Canada wrote on their website that bumper pads can be used until your baby is sitting up/rolling unassisted which is generally 4-8 months, and thats when they should be removed so I'm going to use them until then.

    You can get breathable bumper pads from BRU and Amazon, and they are a mesh and come in a few colors.

    I found my sons Breathable Bumpers at Babies R Us. I used the thick bumpers when I set up his room, but he never slept in the crib, then I found these and  I Love them!!! They are so safe and I never had to worry plus there are so many colors!!! Hope this helps.

    I've only ever seen the solid color ones.  We used the regular bumper with DD until she was about 4 months old and then switched to a breathable.  A lot of people don't use bumpers but DD was always getting her leg or arm stuck.  I plan to just use a breathable this time since we aren't getting a bedding set.

    We aren't planning to get bumpers.  If it turns out that LOs need them, we'll pick them up at BRU or Amazon.

    We aren't getting a bedding set, either.

    We aren't doing a bedding set, either. I've noticed that Wal-Mart, Target, BRU and Amazon all have the breathable bumpers on their websites. Still not sure which store we'll go with!
