What’s black and white and pink with delight? It’s one of the hottest bedding trends – pink zebra print bedding.

Pink and black have long been a color combination that puts the “zazz” in pizzazz. From baby crib sets to full-blown king-size adult sets, the combination of a hot pink background behind zebra stripes has turned into king of the home decorating jungle!

Consider These Terrific Pink Zebra Print Bedding Options

Several manufacturers offer zebra bedding in pink. Typically these range from twin bed size all the way up to king size. A usual combination will include a comforter, two pillow shams, and a bedskirt. Some sets offer the bedskirt separately. These sets often come packaged in bags or totes that repeat the pattern, so if you can’t sleep without your favorite stripes, you can just tote them with you!

More complete sets for this wonderful wild look will include all of the above items, plus a fitted sheet, a flat sheet and sometimes coordinating decorative pillows. These uniquely designed bedding sets also can be set off by coordinating window treatments. Typically these accessories come as drapery pairs in rod-pocket style, with additional valances, all in matching designs and coordinating fabrics.

Among the details to watch for when choosing a any bedding set is the quality of the fabric. Since these sets usually sell for around $100 to $110, consumers should watch closely for the fabric composition of each piece of the set. Some comforters come in a synthetic microsuede but most comforters are made with a 50/50 blend of cotton and polyester fabric and 100 percent polyester fill. Shams are typically of the same 50/50 material.

Sheets and pillowcases also are a similar 50/50 blend but here the important number is the thread count. Since a lot of these pink zebra print bedding sets are geared toward children and teens, the sheets often have a 180 threadcount, a standard minimum that may not be sufficiently durable or comfortable for many sleepers. If this is an issue, forego that all-in-one bedding set in favor of a pink zebra bedding set with only comforter, shams and bedskirt, and buy higher-threadcount sheets and pillow cases separately.

Most bedding sets are machine washable in cold water. Sometimes, however, a comforter might require hand washing or dry cleaning, which these days can be done in your home dryer with the proper cleaning product available in any supermarket. However, if your lifestyle is such that even these options are too much, then definitely choose machine-washable bedding.

The ultimate in a zebra print bedding set has to be the baby crib sets now available. Although similar sets sell in upscale stores starting at $300, one manufacturer offers a nursery dream set for less than $150, a price within the means of most shoppers. The 9-piece nursery set of pink zebra print bedding includes a comforter, crib bumper, crib skirt (dust ruffle), fitted sheet, toy bag, decorative throw pillow, diaper stacker, and two window valances. In addition the children’s bedding designer offers a range of accessories including mobiles, lampshades, changing pads, and wall decor.
