Searching for the "perfect" baby bedding is a nightmare when it comes to little girls. So many frills, and princesses, and weird patterns. As you all know I am going for an "enchanted forest" look. Woodland creatures, and magic, and imagination, and such. Pretty and magical but without the "Disney" look. This look, as you can imagine, is hard to do when all of the baby girl bedding out there is well... GIIIIRLIE! Before we had found out that we were having a girl I had found this bedding and had fallen in love with it but wasn't sure how well I could make it work for a little girls room, however I was completely stuck on how fun it would be to have an enchanted forest room. I stuck with it and I am so glad that I did. When I received the bedding in the mail this week (courtesy of my loving family) I got it out right away and looked at it to make sure it would still work for us now that the rest of the room is pretty much completely put together (only to be torn down and moved to another house in a few months... more on that to come though). I had already been thinking and talking about putting bows on the animals but now that it was in the house I just wasn't sure I had made the right decision. It was much more brown that I had thought it was, however I put the comforter on the crib, grabbed one of Pearl's bows that her Aunt Holly had made for her, held it up to the bear and smiled. It was ADORABLE. So, I washed the bedding and started making bows for each of the little woodland creatures. This is the end result. I think the bows gave it just the right amount of feminine touch! :)
