If your child kept her baby furniture. Converted..

My 6 year old's furniture is her baby furniture with her crib converted to a full bed. We plan to keep it as long as we can-for at least several more years. It's an antique/linen white made by Munire and purchased from behrs. Behrs is out of business and munire doesn't seem to have anything per my google search. Now she's asking for a desk which she'll need. Was anyone else in this predicament? Did you find a desk that matches or did you even try? White definitely won't match so if I don't see anything else maybe a totally different color like pink is best?? Lol

I would get something in lucite or antique white from pottery barn.

I would find a desk that compliments, not matches exactly.

Rather than matching the white, I would get something in a painted color. So it looks deliberate and not added on.

My girls have white furniture and we just put a pink desk in their room...I was afraid that the white wouldn't perfectly match and decided a pop of color looked intentional.

Antique White is easy to match. I matched my daughter's crib with my old dresser and bought another night table. If you get a design painted on it... it looks even better matched.

I'm in exactly the same predicament with Munire and Behr's but with a chestnut collection. I'm on the hunt for a night stand and desk. I might have found something from Potterybarn that goes well enough. Good luck!
