Just like baby's crib bedding, the cradle can enjoy chenilles, fluffy fabrics, seersuckers, dottie and polka dot fabrics, gingham and minichecks, chambray, retro and vintage fabrics and more. If the cradle is going to be in Mom and Dad's room, then consider cradle sets that will compliment their room. If the cradle is going to spend most of it's time in the family room, then you might consider a playful sock monkey theme. If the cradle is going to be in baby's room, then choose linens that compliment baby's crib bedding.
