Nursery Bedding

You would think that a couple would choose their nursery furniture THEN the nursery bedding... right?


Well, we did the exact opposite. We had been planning on buying all natural wood colors for Baby Ratcliff in order to keep the natural/organic thing going. Well, we've finally found some nursery bedding that we like. I'm not as crafty as our friend Lindsay who is trying to decide whether to sew her own bedding. Go, Lindsay! If I tried to sew something for Baby Ratcliff, it would all end in tears. 


This is what we've picked. I have a thing for owls, and if you look at my other stuff, you'll notice most of things we like have owls on them. Derek really loved the colors, and now, he's thinking about painting our nursery to go with this. :) He's so cute! We both really like the dark furniture with it, so we may look for something like that. 


We don't really want it to be all crazy matchy-matchy, but we do love the owl pillow. 




And the little wall hangings, too.



I think it's a good look for a girl or a boy, so I'm really excited. Like I said, though, we don't really want everything to be SUPER matchy or anything. I hate nurseries that look like that. 

I also really like how our neighbors Megan and Justin added things to their sports themed nursery that could grow with their son, Truman. I think we'd like to try and do some things like that. We aren't sure what those things will be yet, but I'm sure we'll find them. 

We both keep talking about making sure Baby Ratcliff has a lot of books, but I'm not sure Baby Ratcliff will be ready for Ulysses just yet...
