Just say no to ivory furniture

I fell in love with our gorgeous ivory Munire Savannah furniture. It is beautiful but the problem is as my daughter gets older and we want to buy cute bookshelves, toy boxes, etc and everything is in white.  Save yourself the trouble, and just find white furniture you love if you don't want a wood shade.

Re: Just say no to ivory furniture

  • Just say NO to black furniture too..  Sometimes there is problems matching the different shades of black, but you can see every smudge, fingerprint, dust, scuff & dent on it.  It's terrible!

  • I had ivory furniture as a kid and it also yellows over time.

  • We just bought ivory crib and dresser. Now I am trying to find shelves, a glider, eyc to match. It is difficult. Guess I will have to go with an all cloth glider or it just won't match. But I didn't want to spend that much on one.

  • I would think that if you had a couple of things in Ivory, and a couple of things in a darker finish, like a cherry it would be fine.

  • It doesn't all have to match! Almost all of our furniture is some shade of ivory, white, pale blue, or grey (Bay's is painted a distressed grey) and it's fine. Look at some sites with Swedish design for inspiration.

  • I forgot to mention that we don't have any "kid" furniture, so if you just look for regular non kid-specific furniture, you'll have much better luck :)

    THIS!  Everything doesn't have to match.

  • Well we just bought the Munire Savannah in Linen :) My DD1 has off white furniture as well and we have had no issues with accessorizing. There is actually a lot in cream out there that matches!!
