Opinions Wanted.....

     This may come as a surprise to many of you, but I am not very creative, nor do I have a good sense of style.  I chose 2 different bedding sets, 2 matching boy sets and a girl set, that I absolutely love. I had always wanted to do my boys room in a nautical theme, so that's what I chose. A really cute (in my opinion) boating set by Nautica.  I never had an image in my head for my little girl, but I saw a purple butterfly set and knew that would be perfect. Sounds good, right? But there's a slight problem....they don't match, at all!  I originally thought a baby blue would look good with both, but Caitlyn and I went to the store today to match the comforters with paint samples and it totally clashes with the girls set.  So this is where you come in. :) Please, please, give me your advice!!!!  Do I do 2 different wall colors, just stick with the blue anyway because there really isn't much wall showing, do a boring cream/beige color, leave them white, something completely different, or pick new bedding sets??? All thoughts accepted, thank you!!!!

    I've picked a material that has colours for both sexes, and I'm painting the feature wall a deep blue, which is a colour on the material. From the 2 pics, it looks like there is a greeny colour on both sets?? In the butterfly and in the squares on the nautical set. Could you use the green as your feature colour? I don't think 2 feature walls would be a good idea though.....Maybe keep searching for another girl set. Bring on the online shopping! x

    Like Mum said, maybe the green if there is a shade that will work for both or go with something light and neutral or just a hint of blue that will match both. Good luck.

    I THINK WHITE BECAUSE IT IS IN BOTH, AND MAYBE DO THE KIDS NAMES ABOVE THE CRIB WITH PAINTED WOOD LETTERS TO BRING OUT THE COLORS OF EACH SET. THEY SELL THE LETTERS IN AC MOORE AND WHEN THE BABIES ARE BORN. IF YOU LIKE THIS IDEA I WILL BE GLAD TO PAINT ALL THE LETTERS FOR YOU. I'M SURE I HAVE PAINT THAT WILL MATCH WHAT IS ON THE BEDDING. THINK ABOUT IT AND LET ME KNOW. LOVE, BETTY
