Crib bedding help!

BrittLitlBrittLitl member

I am having the most difficult time finding crib bedding! We are painting baby girl's room a warm gray with a vintage gold accent stencil on the wall her crib will go on, so I feel limited on picking anything too printed, etc. Our color scheme is gray, cream & gold with peach/coral accents. If anyone has any suggestions on bedding sites or specific bedding that they can suggest, I would greatly appreciate it!Here is a photo of our paint inspiration & a photo of her crib :)

    What about having a few solid fitted sheet for the crib in the color(s) you're using? Find a nice, soft flannel or t-shirt material.

    Would skip fancy bedding sets since you'll only really be able to use the fitted sheet for any extended period (non-breathable bumpers & blankets are considered dangerous)

    I would pick up some fun colorful sheets and call it a day. You can't use much from the bedding set anyway. PBK, Land of Nod and even Target has some cute sheets.

    I agree with everyone else about not getting a bedding set.  They are costly and useless.  Just find some cute sheets and crib skirt.

    Solid sheets from Target for sure. At least 3 or 4 to help those nights baby keeps spitting up. When the sheets get spat up on or pooped on you'll be glad you didn't spend a lot of money or time finding the oh so perfect pattern sheets to match the walls. Ormaybe that's just me.

    With just a crib sheet you'd be surprised how little of an impact the bedding has on the room.    I found the bigger impacts to be things like your painted wall (which looks like a gorgeous idea!), rug, and curtains.   I would find either solid crib sheets or something with a subtle smaller print.  Dwell Studio have some nice smaller prints in gray.

    Restoration Hardware also has some really pretty simple sheets and crib skirts.
