I went through a shopping frenzy..  And I ended up with..as the title says...the exact SAME design of fabric on the body panel of 2 my carriers I did not plan it that way.. Here is the story.. Ordered a custom Babyhawk Oh Snap; Peace Out on Chocolate.(due to arrive soon) Then I decided to order a custom 18" O&A too. My initial fabric was 'butterflies' but i was told then that the fabric has been pre-cut to the 16'' ...but i wanted 18". As the "peace out' is a gorgeous fabric & 1 of the O&A retailers are having the same design;it is called 'Jehtro'...i then requested if i could have my 18" to be made with it. And Caren emailed me later & said yes..it could be done!  And my 18" O&A is due to be ready to be ship to me. BUT...I now realise I have 2 carriers with the same design body panel   History is repeating itself..I have 2 ILYs & 2 similar carriers  .This could not be happening. Yaz is going ga-ga again. The 'peace' design is gorgeous,chic,fun..it is all in 1 design.I really love it!! BUT I have TWO carriers of the same design.. So ladies..help me. I've got 2 options here: Keep both or let go of 1 & buy it in a different fabric?!? Has anyone here has the same fabric for their carriers? p/s Here's the "peace'' design http://www.facebook.com/#!/photo.php?pi ... 0491268477

Oh Yaz, you dag! You are way too funny!!! If the straps are the same colour, then I would sell one of them. If they are different, then the panel will look different and keeping both might not be so crazy  I would also wait until you get both and decide if you actually like the Oh Snap against the O&A (not sure you have tried it yet). I would love to buy the O&A from you, but I don't need an 18"

*waving*
just wait until they get there- the print will probably look different, and the fit will also be different.

I would love to buy the O&A from you, but I don't need an 18" Ooooo thanks hereaim   But if you ask Jelita...she would not think I am funny but she would tell you I am 1 wild,CRAZY mama !!! She helped me paypal the carriers and as the carrier became from 1 to 2 then 3 in a space of 1 month..i think she must have felt I was beyond help I do not need the 18" too ..but after getting the 16" & loving it..I was just curious how the 18" is like. But for sure..I am going to love it too. Learner-Driver wrote: *waving*

Yup..I'll wait but pretty sure the fit will be different & they are both different enough carriers I did a thread in TBW comparing both carriers;the O&A & the Oh Snap. Here's the link... http://www.thebabywearer.com/forum/show ... comparisonThat was when I decided to get the Oh Snap too.Then later I got the 18". So if I were to sell 1;it is just because to have a different pattern fabric. I would definitely still want to have both carriers as they are both very different. And I will opt to sell the Oh Snap as there are more fabrics to choose from the Babyhawk website.

My Oh Snap has arrived in Malaysia. It cleared customs at 12:43 PM this afternoon I'm hoping to receive it the earliest by tomorrow.. So..lets see how it goes.. I know it is going to look gorgeous BUT if I find it that it is going to be on a similar tone with the black straps of my 18" O&A 'peace'.. I have no choice but to put it up for sale ASAP. Why ASAP?So I could get another Oh SNAP ASAP too!  Will put up pictures when I get it!!

It is here. Yup..the colour & tone of the chocolate straps will definitelly be too close with my O&A black straps  . The chocolate is very dark..almost similar to the colour of the Raccon Quinny Zapp. Will be putting it up for sale if anyone is interested. If not..I will be sending the Oh Snap back to the US to have it exchange to a different pattern. Here are pictures of the Oh Snap.It is still in the original plastic. Decide not to try it on so I could sell it or exchange it still in its plastic packaging. http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?ref ... 0491268477

By the way..my Oh Snap.. it is not going to be the Peace but it'll be the Jasper Owls fabric!!!  So I won't be having 2 carriers of the same fabric after all!! Here's a picture of it. This picture was emailed to me by the retailer. It is now OTW. Will update on it when it arrives It is still on Pumpkin straps http://www.facebook.com/friends/?filter ... 0491268477
