The pink color is the ideal baby pink for a nursery; however, the ivory in the trellis design is definitely an off white color, to the point it looks a little dingy in certain lighting. Some buyers commented on the "shedding" of the rug, I haven't really noticed this to be a problem. Also, people mentioned the rug having a horrible smell, mine smelled just fine. Overall, I'm satisfied with this purchase and I'm looking forward to bringing our baby girl home!
