Brandee Danielle, one of the most innovative crib bedding manufacturers, is available through national chains, including JC Penny, baby specialty stores, and online retailers. The Bee My Baby bedding collection is a great choice for those interested in high quality gender neutral bedding in a Bee/Bug theme. Bee My Baby is a good value at $170 and $200 for a four-piece crib set.
Bee My Baby is packaged as a four-piece crib set which includes a quilt, bumper, crib skirt, and fitted sheet. The fitted sheet is available for purchase separately. The collection is made from 100% cotton and is machine washable. As with most crib bedding collections, coordinating accessories are available to decorate the nursery. One drawback to Bee My Baby is the lack of wall border, a common accessory available with most crib bedding collections. There are several “rustic” wall hangings available that match the pattern.
Most crib bedding manufacturers use the quilt as the highlight of the collection. Though Brandee Danielle uses premium quality fabrics, the quilt is comprised of four squares and a simplistic patchwork pattern. This is not to say that the quilt, or the rest of the bedding set for that matter, is not made with superior craftsmanship. The quilt is made from a genuine patchwork design, in which each “patch” is sewn together to create the pattern; as opposed to patchworks in which the “patches” are on the same fabric and the stitching makes it appear as though the patches are independent of each other.
The four squares are made from a soft sherpa material and woven yellow, green, and black ginghams. The quilt backing features the sherpa
material as well. I was pleased to see the woven fabrics used throughout the bedding collection. Woven fabrics are created using individual colored threads that are woven together to create a pattern. In general, they are more durable than their printed counterparts.
There is an embroidered bee on the quilt, bumper, and assorted accessories. The bumper is 9” tall and comes in four pieces, each with a zippered cover that is easily removable for washing. The bumper also includes ties on the top and bottom. The crib skirt features a peek-a-boo style with a 15” drop. The fitted sheet is made from woven green gingham.
I would warn any potential customer against purchasing a Brandee Danielle pattern from an online retailer that does not have the merchandise in stock. I have experienced bedding collections stuck in customs for weeks, missed arrival dates, and a general inability to estimate as to when collections will arrive. Despite that, I cannot deny the superior quality of the fabrics or the craftsmanship used to produce Bee My Baby.
Unfortunately, for Canadian consumers purchasing from a United States online retailer, the Bee My Baby bedding collection is manufactured in India. Customers in Canada would be required to pay import duties of as much as 18% of the stated prices.
If you are interested in a Bee/Bug theme, you might also look at Bizzie Bees also by Brandee Danielle or Stop Buggin’ Me by Glenna Jean.
