Lol! Me too!!! I like for it to match too but they don’t have to match exactly. Just you know…in the same general family/shade/period. 🙂

Whenever a friend or relative would say they were looking to get rid of something, we’d check it out and if it was better then we already had, we took it and got rid of our old one via Craigslist, charity donation, etc.. I can see folks wanting everything to match, I’m fortunate that much of what we acquired does since much of it was “sets” or pieces that matched what we already had. I pretty much gag and choke when I see what a “set” of furniture goes for new at a store.

The older I get, the more I try and stay away from buying “new” anything! I just continue to see through research that the person who buys “new” anything usually experiences the most depreciation from that buy, and the person who gets it second hand obtains the most value for that purchase.

Also..Grace is definitely ADORABLE!

I have a lot of books that are second hand and 99% of our baby stuff is second hand. Second hand baby stuff is the best because they really grow out of things quickly.
