I've always wanted a Seuss-themed nursery, and this season Pottery Barn Kids stepped up to the plate and released impossible-to-find Seuss crib sheets. I'm in heaven!

We bought a random matching pillowcase for the extra fabric. I cut out the characters from the pillowcase and then sewed them onto a completely non-Seuss-related bumper. I love how it looks. 
We bought two copies of the two books I consider to be Seuss essentials--Green Eggs and Ham and The Cat in the Hat. One copy of each is in her library, and the other copy of each I used to create wall art. Seuss art is expensive, but pages from an actual Seuss book are not and are, in fact, much cuter.

I think it all came together very well. She will probably never sleep because of sensory overload, but at least she'll know the world is a REALLY colorful place.
