Today, for a quick creative break, I decided to start looking at big boy bedding for my nearly two-and-a-half year old. Potty training is on tap for next month and the big boy bed transition will soon follow. I am hopeful that will also mean we can pair down his bedding to just a duvet or comforter and his one special blanket.
His room is one that just needs one final touch before the big reveal so you'll have to trust me that the colors for each of my choices would work. I may end up sewing something myself but these are a few I liked at quick glance around the interwebs. Please let me know your favorites!
Garnet Hill Skateboards percale sheeting-the concept is scary as B already loves skateboards but the colors are great. The wide green stripe would NOT work.
Galaxy Sheeting by Dwell Studio- I think this is too near the wall color but I love the subtlety.

Brody Sheeting by PB kids-perfect colors and I know B would love this!

Organic Star by PB Kids- I would have to make this one out of the white sheets with gray stars but I love it's simplicity and the ability to add other colors.

Junior Varsity by land of nod-I wouldn't do the quilt but B loves all things sports and these colors are perfect-maybe a little busy, but there are no other patterned fabrics in his room.

Parallel Bars Bedding by land of nod-I particularly like the sheets and the B was a wonderful coincidence. I would make the duvet from these sheets and maybe search for a red B :)

Great choices! I think the simple ones would be good for when he's a bit older, but it would be fun to do the skateboards/transportation, etc. stuff while you can still get away with it :) Before he has any input :)
ReplyDeleteI had the same thought! Another crafternoon might be in our future, or at least a sister trip to the fabric store. :)
DeleteThe skateboards seem too teenager to me. The organic star and other subtle options seem not young and fun enough. My vote is for Brody by PB Kids - PERFECT colors, adds pattern to the room, and plains + trains + automobiles rule!
