SIMPLE AND STYLISH TODDLER BEDDING

This post is sponsored by Garnet Hill

Going from a crib to a big girl or boy bed can bring lots of feelings and stresses. But one thing you shouldn’t have to stress about is what to actually put on the bed. I’m here to share some tips on Simple and Stylish Toddler Bedding and how to style it for your little one.

When Eloise was in her crib, she didn’t sleep with much. She was never fully covered with a blanket, but just snuggled with some stuffed animals and had multiple blankets near her. What is a little kid’s obsession with ALL THE BLANKETS that they don’t even use??

So when it came time to transfer her into her big girl bed, I didn’t want to overwhelm her with multiple layers of sheets and heavy blankets that I knew she wouldn’t even use anyway.

START WITH A MATTRESS PROTECTOR

Chances are, when your child is ready to move into a bigger bed, they may still be in pull ups or have an occasional accident. To keep your mattress safe and from smelling like pee, use a mattress cover for easier clean up when those accidents do happen.

KEEP THINGS SOFT

I know I don’t like sleeping on scratchy sheets, so why should I make my daughter? She’s picky enough as it is, the last thing I need is to have her complain about her bedding after I’ve put it on. 

Toddler Quilt Bedding

These Solid Hemstitched Supima Percale Sheets are super soft (even more after washing!) and lightweight AND have the prettiest little stitched detail. I have a fitted sheet and a regular sheet down for now, but knowing the way Eloise sleeps, I’ll probably take off the regular sheet.

But when she’s ready for it – I’ll have it waiting! 

THE LIGHTER THE BETTER

The last thing you want on your toddler’s bed is a lot of heavy and overwhelming bedding. Even in the colder months, Eloise usually just sleeps with one small blanket. So I wanted to make sure I got something she would actually use.

Neutral Kids Bedding

The Dream Quilt in Dawn Gray totally stole my heart as soon as it arrived. The subtle pattern adds some fun texture to her bedding and it’s the perfect weight for her. Not too heavy but not too light. She loves how soft it is and hasn’t thrown it off her bed yet, so I know it’s a keeper.

Toddler Bedding in Girls Room

I also got a matching sham to tie it all together and to create some added cushion support for reading books in bed 🙂

Toddler Girl Bedding

SIMPLE IS BEST

You don’t need to overdo things on a kid’s bed. They could care less about multiple throw pillows or styling things perfectly . Honestly this is probably the last time her bed will actually look like this ha. So the less you have on there, the better.

HAVE FUN!

In the end, just have fun with it! Eloise has a Paw Patrol blanket she LOVES and even though this design mama’s heart cringes every time I see it on her bed clashing with her decor I worked so hard on, it makes her happy and I can’t deny her that.

Toddler Bedding in a Pink Girls Room

I added a throw blanket on the end of her bed for some contrast and extra warmth for those winter nights. And of course I couldn’t resist ONE throw pillow that was actually one of the first things I bought for her room makeover and inspired quite a bit of it.

I also couldn’t forget her Ella the Unicorn that she sleeps with every night.

Garnet Hill has such a beautiful selection of bedding and they also have a Kids’ Collection full of soft, subtle colors you can incorporate into your kiddo’s room that will totally grow with them. I love the high quality of their products and know these are pieces I’ll have around for a while. 

Eloise isn’t quite at the age yet where she can make her own bed but I can dream right? At least for now I know she’s got a safe and snuggly bed to crawl into every night. I hope these tips of how to style a kids bed were helpful!

We spent a few days this past week at the @thedwel We spent a few days this past week at the @thedwellbox in Amish Country and never wanted to leave! More and more lately we’re realizing the importance of family and nurturing those relationships. This was the perfect place to unwind, reconnect and enjoy an adventure together without worrying about capturing it all on our phones. We went for a hike, sat by the fire, ate wayyy too many pastries and cheeses and loved every minute of it. Sharing a video tour in stories today! If you’re in the area - we highly recommend a stay here!

As always, there’s two sizes for you to choose from and a short easy tutorial for you to follow to make the cute little wooden stand too 📅  My little office nook has gone through a lot of phases since we first moved in 4.5 years ago (swipe through to see them all!) and last year I finally upgraded my desk to one I could properly sit at 🤣 I took two Alex drawers from IKEA and added wood trim and caning for an elevated look and topped it off with a faux butcher block counter made from a $30 door slab. 👊🏻 the cherry on top for this space was our new skylight that instantly brightened it up and brings in so much beautiful natural light ☀️ this nook never felt quite right until now and I’m excited to spend more time here this year working on lots of exciting projects!

Oh 2020. While it wasn’t what any of us expected Oh 2020. While it wasn’t what any of us expected I’m focusing on all the good that came out of it. I remember sitting with Dan New Year’s Eve last year and being so hopeful for what our future held and praying it would bring us another baby after we had been trying with no luck. I found out only a couple weeks later I was pregnant and that joy carried us through the year even though it brought fear and worry along with it. Besides welcoming our sweet baby girl into our lives we experienced so many other amazing things. The time we got to spend as a family is something we’ll always cherish. We worked on so many projects together and continued to pour our hearts into making this house a place we can call home. And we built A LOT of arches 🤣 Eloise was on the cover of a magazine, Hawk’s hair grew back in full force, we beat Covid and captain Christmas reminded us what the holiday season is really about.  but most importantly we leaned into god and relied on him more than ever to get us through each day. That’s the relationship I want to continue to work on and I’m grateful that this year nudged me closer to the One who deserves all the glory and continues to be faithful 🙏🏻 happy new year friends 🤍 cheers to 2021 🍾
