Modern nurseries come in many shapes and sizes.  Traditionally, we think of pinks, blues, yellows and greens for our dear sweet newborns.  Today’s nurseries, however, embrace bold new color palettes and, as Emeril would say, kick it up a notch.

If you are searching for a bedding set in a color anything but traditional, let the color orange tickle your fancy. A few great reasons why orange is becoming all the rage:

• Though green and yellow have been the traditional gender-neutral colors, today’s modern families are looking for more than soft pastels, and orange is a perfect solution. Orange baby bedding works for both baby girl and baby boy nurseries.
• The color orange — which can range even in itself from carrot orange to burnt orange to tangerine — looks great with a multitude of other colors. The color orange blends with hues from chocolate brown and turquoise to yellow and lime green. Pinks and blues, in the right tones, pair expertly with orange in a contemporary, non-overwhelming baby girl/baby boy way. Therefore, if you are looking to decorate in gender-friendly tones, you will have great color coordination in a surprising multi-colored palette.
• Designers today offer a multitude of orange crib bedding sets to choose from along with all of those necessary nursery accessories. Whether you are looking for a sweet baby theme, such as elephants and giraffes, or are looking for modern geometrics, designers today offer orange bedding for everyone!

Three of our favorite orange crib bedding sets:

Litto Kids Magic Garden Crib Set:  Fun orange crib bedding with bright turquoise, lime green and yellows.  A contemporary forest scene in amazingly retro colors.  The print-bumper reverses to an amazing orange-and-white {which is also the same great pattern used on the bumper ties}.

Olli & Lime Billie Crib Bedding:  Amazing chocolate brown, stark white and orange together in a pattern that reminds me of when I used to create spiral paint pictures as a child.  Creatively simple, elegant and just plain perfect.

Aunt Bucky Pinky Panda Crib Bumper: I love the way Aunt Bucky combines a retro-geometric print with cartoonish panda bears. which lend both complete sophistication and an element of fun to the nursery {and who cannot love Aunt Bucky’s MADE WITH LOVE ribbon ties}.  The bumper is pictured with Aunt Bucky’s Orange Crush Crib Sheet but would be well suited with any of Aunt Bucky’s sheets, which are perfect for mixing and matching!

It is one of those moments that will define the rest of your life: The moment that it is determined –whether planned or unplanned — that you are about to raise a baby in this world. It is a moment that comes and goes so quickly — the precise moment that your pregnancy test is positive, the precise moment the adoption agency says the paperwork is complete — and yet the impact of that one moment will last the rest of your life.

And so it goes, from that moment on, that you start decorating. In preparation for baby’s arrival, you spend hours — if not days — sifting through magazines and browsing through stores to determine which exact nursery set is exactly right for your impending baby bundle.

An idea developed in ages past that babies could only rest in cribs decorated with pastel pinks and baby blues. Modern baby bedding, however, is a far cry from this belief and crib bedding is now offered in dozens of colors — in hues from turquoise to purple to brown. These days, modern baby bedding is bold, bright and unique. Modern baby bedding is full of character and personality, typically with clean lines for design-conscious parents.
