BUT that's not to say i don't love the fabric you picked. the stripe would be adorable as a crib skirt with fitted sheets in the pink. i'd do off-the-shelf curtains (like ikea) in white and trim them with the pink fabric. maybe your mom could make you a lumbar pillow too out of the pink fabric.Christi https://www.blogger.com/profile/10119026001651024221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1170116880352300881.post-43532528669949170232009-09-04T14:25:44.694-07:002009-09-04T14:25:44.694-07:00You should tie-dye the slip cover.

Keep the slipcover and find pillows, blankets, rugs (or make them) with all colors. They don't seem like they would go together right now but if you have all the colors together the right way it probably would look really cute. I would have two shades of pink (light and dark), and two shades of torquoise (light and dark) and find a way to put them all together. This way it's more flexible with what shades you can have. Just my thought. <br /><br />I can never get enough of hearing about my baby niece, keep the baby blogs.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1170116880352300881.post-52593194963846269232009-09-03T12:49:53.263-07:002009-09-03T12:49:53.263-07:00I don't know what the consensus is- but I thin...I don't know what the consensus is- but I think the pink sounds awesome. I love pink and turquoise together- and pick and brown look amazing together- so I think it would work.

So keep um coming! It gives me more courage to do baby posts when I'm pregnant someday! Anyway, I love the idea of a pink slip-cover, and I'd say if the beige one becomes available, I'd actually order that one too. That way you can change it up AND if you decided to move the chair to another room you could change the slip-cover and it would go. It'd also be nice to get the beige one now, because what if you have another child someday and it's not a girl and then the slip-covers are no longer available?!?! :) But I do love the pink one for a little girl!Kaylahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02854536519219675346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1170116880352300881.post-10442899526133593522009-09-03T12:43:49.487-07:002009-09-03T12:43:49.487-07:00In my opinion, I would go with beige.

Sometimes, the best nursery designs are the ones that don't match exactly! That being said, any color slip cover sounds like it would be better than no slip cover at all, can you try out the pink but keep watch for another color option you like better? If you attempt bleaching, I would definitely suggest doing a trial run on a small swatch of the fabric first!Jen | Our Life Accountshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05604469692164988683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1170116880352300881.post-6102337954761912312009-09-03T10:26:56.048-07:002009-09-03T10:26:56.048-07:00I am having a hard time picturing the pink in the ...I am having a hard time picturing the pink in the color scheme you have picked out. I think the pink chair would fit in better with chocolate walls and then torquise and pink accents, but I know you really liked the torquise walls as do I. I really don't like the idea of bleaching the slip cover either tho that might work. Sorry this has turned into rambling. Maybe make an idea board and see how it all plays together?Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17652855072404605031noreply@blogger.com
