Converting Bedding

Posted on April 15, 2008 @ 9:17 pm

I decided that for my son’s third birthday that I was going to buy him a new bedding set for his little toddler bed.  That is, until I got to the store and saw the prices they wanted for a ridiculously little amount of fabric.  I refused to pay those prices and walked out of the store shaking my head.

I decided to go and look at the baby bedding, as his bed was the same size as his crib had been.  I thought maybe I could buy a set and alter it to be a little more grown up, instead of looking babyish.  It was going to be a lot more cost-effective doing it this way and I knew that he really wouldn’t care.

I found a pattern with trains and airplanes on it that I knew he would fall in love with instantly.  It is very boyish and he would even match the wallpaper in his bedroom.  I did a few alterations to it and it worked out perfectly.
