Anyone else NOT like the PBK Dr. Seuss bedding?

(It's on the PBK home page, if you haven't seen it.)

The sheets are ok, but $99 for a bumper? No thanks.?And I don't like the quilts, crib or kid-size, AT ALL.?

But I do like the shower curtain and towels.?And I'm now inspired to try decorating the playroom in a Dr. Seuss theme.?

I was so disappointed though, since everyone on here seemed to love it. But I guess it's a good thing. Since S doesn't need new bedding anyway :-)

  • Me! My catalog came in the mail over the weekend, and I didn't think it was anything great. Like you said, the bath stuff is pretty cute but I don't really care for the bedding.

  • I'm the opposite.  I actually like the quilt and bumper, but not the sheets.

    I was so disappointed in the new stuff.  I was really hoping to find something that I love for R's big girl room and the nursery (once we find out), but I didn't love any of it.

  • I like some of it, like the bath wraps - SO cute. But what I really like is the boys madras bedding.

    I think that's what we're going to get for Jackson for his big boy room.  It has so many colors, we can go a lot of ways with it:

  • e -  I am SO disappointed they don't have that in crib bedding!  If we were to have a boy, that would be a done deal.

     

  • It would be SO cute as crib bedding!

    I also really like this picture they show - love the green striped curtains and anywhere chair.

    We had thought about doing the Jack bedding from Serena & Lily, but I like this better.  It was also green/navy.

  • I don't like it at all. ?I feel like PBK is "selling out" now that they have Star Wars stuff and Dr. Seuss. ?I liked when they had all their own original designs and no character stuff. ?I've been eyeing girl crib bedding for over a year (since we're TTC#3 and only going to change the crib bedding if it's a girl) and have yet to find anything that I like.

  • I know!  I loved the striped curtains, too.  You could do so much as far as accessories go with that bedding!
  • eclaires!  I remember you posting 4 or 5 months ago about a couple of bedding sets..one you already had bought...one you were contimplating or something....and you wanted everyone to vote which one they liked better.....

    Are you looking AGAIN for MORE!!!!  You have a shopping problem (I know you know!)

     

  • I love it!!!

    Like really love it.

    The only thing I don't like about it is that the quilt is primarily white.  Other than that, I think it's great. 

  • HAHA!  Good memory.  :)

    We actually ended up returning the safari bedding I had bought (that is why I was polling everyone - it was on sale and I purchased it but wasn't sure about keeping it).  Anyway, after that we decided that since the pirate bedding wasn't on sale we'd just wait to buy it until we were actually ready to do his room or it went on sale.  It's still full price and I kind of fell out of love with it.

    The real issue is I couldn't resist a deal on the safari bedding - more than anything sales/deals are the DEATH of me!

  • I only remember because that was when I decided to start thinking about Mitch's room.  His "baby" room was recycled from Taylor and Audrey  (don't worry, it was gender neutral), so I'm making his "toddler" room HIS.  But I remembered when you started posting those bedding sets is when I came up with my idea for Mitch's room.....

    Anyways, I just ordered (and am waiting) for the set to come in....its green and blue argyle and I'm doing a preppy golf theme....which I'm having trouble with.  There isn't much out there golf related that will "fit" in a kid room.  I need an oversized golf tee kids chair and an old golf club to hang pictures off with ribbon or something.....I don't know.  I'm struggling. 

  • Hate it.  It's so not my style.  In fact... I think it's borderline ugly.

    Exactly!! Why go there if you are going to buy Star Wars? (And you could find it for less $$$ somewhere else if that is what you are going with.) That is why I like PBK they have really pretty things that are of their own design...  

  • It's ahight, I guess, but I'm not into character themed stuff.  I'm glad that I don't like ANY of the boy bedroom stuff since I already have DS's big boy bedding.  I'd be disappointed if they had come out with something that I liked better now!
