Big girl bedding fiasco

You'd think that the task of finding a cute girl's bed set with flowers and butterflies would not be a difficult thing to do, but it's proven to be quite a hassle. My first sweep of looking I found a handful of bed sets that I liked until my sister pointed out I'd be spending 2-3 times the amount on Ellie's bedroom as I did on my own room. That seems wrong. My second search led me to buy a set from JC Penney, only to later find out that it's back-ordered until June! We're on the third attempt and I finally found the perfect bedding!


Ok, ok. So it's not what I have in mind, but it would have been perfect for me! If I was Ellie's age, this would SO BE MY IDEAL BEDROOM!!! Strawberry Shortcake RULES! Sigh. Keep looking, Niffer. There is no way I am going to convince Daddy that a bright pink Strawberry Shortcake bed is anything but BRIGHT PINK.

haha. Dan would hate that too. The Company Store has a good selection of kid's designs at a (sometimes) reasonable pricing: girl's bedding.

Also a possibility is Overstock.com's kid's bedding, although you have to check thread counts. Their prices can be really good though.

Good luck finding something and let us know what you got! And to solve the problem of her bedding being more than yours, well, maybe it's time for new stuff in the Master bedroom...! hehe.

Thanks for the suggestions. The Company Store had a couple really cute ones! I think I've made up my mind, but we're going to a store tonight to see if we can find something in person. If not, then I'll be ordering online tonight or tomorrow. I'll post my decision soon!
