OK, So Im kinda in a dilemma (not time sensitive though) - I painted the girl's room a pixie dust pink - the same shade as this pink in the bedding *THIS IS NOT MY BEDDING IM GETTING*



But I want this bedding:



How do I tie these 2 colors together? The 1st picture is making me realize its do-able - but how? Do I need to put some sage green on the walls? Use a pink crib sheet, instead of the sage? What are your idea's? Im not willing to repaint the entire wall, but will do some trim work if needed

Should the crib be dark brown or white?

~Beth

ETA: The picture of the bedding I want is a bit muted. The color is a bit brighter green than what it shows!!

I think it will be fine. maybe get matching green curtains if there is a window or paint a shelf on that wall the same green. You could get a pink dust ruffle for the crib or use a crib quilt in both colors as a wall hanging. Make name letters for both kids and paint them both colors and hang them on the wall. I think it will be gorgeous! Enjoy!

I would paint the whole window frame (being careful not to paint the window shut!). I also like how in the first pic they used a green/pink clock and painted some play tables and chairs the same shades. I wonder if you could buy just the clock or just the play table or something to help tie it in? You could always paint an old bookcase the same theme too (like the outside green and the inside pink).

Thats a good idea too - they have those clocks that you can take the face out of, we have one at the barn that we stuck stickers inside. Im going to ask my stepdad if hell make me a few shelfs, and I know mom would make me some curtains. I need to write this down before I forget LOL!!!

I think thats the same Bedding that Resi got, maybe she can put up a pic of her Nursery? I would say the walls pink with that bedding is fine. The bedding iS still Neutrals and the pink is your POP of color.
