"I Think You're Just What I Needed..."


Went on a fabric hunt with my friend, Hillary, today!
Lookie-Lookie what we found!

I can't believe we found fabric so similar to the Target bedding.
Higher quality fabric.
Custom made to fit MY crib and changing table (which will be blue as soon as it warms up outside!)
Coordinating accent fabrics that make it even CUTER than the Target set.
Only $50 for a crib skirt, a comforter, a big fat 12 inch bumper, and skirt for the changing table....plus leftover pieces to make little curtain tiebacks, maybe a pillow, etc.

MUCH better than the $200 bedding from Target!
LOVE IT. BoldAND I love Hillary for knowing where to shop and having the love of the hunt, and patience with me while I searched for something we thought would be impossible to find!

Happy Friday!
I'm gonna measure, and order me some FABulous Fabric!

Oh now, I LOVE LOVE LOVE THAT fabric. The Target was cute, but I actually like what you picked out much better. Congrats on your fantastic find my friend!

Thanks! For some reason, the brown looks very dark in the photo, but it's more of a chocolate color. I am trying to finish up all my other projects now so I can get going on this one! Yay!

CUTE CUTE CUTE!! i love it! are the girls going to share a room now?

banananutmeg said...

yes, eventually. I know I am only putting off the inevitable...but we're going to move Quincy into the pink room with Reese in a month or so. There's already a crib set up in there for her.

I adore that fabric! It makes me want to go out and find fabric for my mei tai. I've got this great vision, but you know how that goes. Finding the right fabric is a dream come true!!

Ohhh to have the creative knack that you do! My kids would be in heaven! That fabric is FABULOUSLY adorable!!!

Seth said...

Very cute Megs-can't wait to see it all put together. Well done!

dude...get on that transition now, BEFORE the baby comes and you have even less energy to deal with it. Have a little celebration for the "big move". You could even have Reese make a big "Welcome" sign for Quin while she is napping or something. And maybe have Quin give Reese a little gift for "inviting" her to share the room. I know you will come up with something cute...but i know those girls love their space, so ya might wanna get a jump on it!

OH and let them make something for the babies new room....that would be awesome.

Oh my gosh, SOOOO Cute!!!! Custom bedding is WAY better than Target bedding! :) LOVE IT!! And I think you need to send me step-by-step instructions for your book shelves/holders. Love them!

HolleeAnn I LOVE the idea of the "welcome" sign. Great idea. We're going to start referring to the crib in R's room as "Quincy's crib", to get them both used to the idea. We'll move Q over as soon as it is light outside at bedtime. Right now, Reese goes to bed with the closet light on, and Q goes to bed in PITCH black. I'm hoping that having it light outside will get them both used to the same lighting situation and make the transition for Q easier. I'm taking the blackout curtains down from Quincy's room next week to ease her into sleeping with more light.

Where did you buy the fabric and why is Hillary keeping it a secret of where to buy fabric around here???

Shelly said...

I'm with Jenny! I love this fabric and it is exactly the colors that Mark was talking about for his room. Where did you find this???

banananutmeg said...

M Grace...or something like that...it's next to IO metro on... J I think?

Breanne said...

Super cute and I agree cuter than the Target one. I can hardly wait to see the final product.
