This cute Gymboree line was pretty easy to match with not too many colors to fool around with!  Use these grosgrain ribbon colors for all your custom accessories made to match Gymboree’s 2009 Garden Friends line.  Note: Fantasy Rose matches the lighter pink in some of the prints, but is not the primary pink.   For that you want Offray Shocking Pink.

You will find the color code of your item above the bar code on the price tag.  The first 5 digits are the item SKU, the middle 3 digits/letters are the color code, and the last 3 digits are the size.  See example:

*Likeness is a hex #, not a photograph, so texture is not rendered, and the color should be considered approximate.

**Matching Ribbon Color refers to the best solid grosgrain ribbon match I could find.  I use Schiff, RABOM’s custom Schiff colors, and Offray colors.  “~” indicates that the match is not perfect.  An asterisk indicates a retired color.
