Need opinions on baby's nursery!!

[JustMe0925]

Hello ladies, I am 30w2d today and found out that my mother-n-law just ordered my baby's bedding.  It's not the one I wanted but I can't complain.  My husband loves it.  I just need some help with coordinating colors, such as what color should the curtains, paint (the bottom half only, cause the top will stay white), the wall letters for the name, and the changing pad be.  Your opinions would be great and I appreciate it bunches...Here is the link to look at the bedding.

oh i like it too!
I think we are getting one by KidsLine called Mod Ladybug.  I'll put up a picture in my pictures section (from the JC Penny's website) of basically what we're planning on doing with the walls.  We don't plan on buying EVERY additional piece, but we like the crib set.

I have an art school degree so maybe I can help  : )
I wouldn't try to coordinate with green cause greens are hard to match.  
maybe pink sheer curtains and paint the bottom half of the wall in a beige?
since the pattern is a little busy (not a bad thing!) a more solid wall would be a good visual rest for your eyes.  Match the beige/tan to the tan colored polka dot in the crib sheet and it should look nice.

ALSO (i love designing things for other people so ignore me if you hate it) I think it would be adorable if you found (or if your DH is handy in the garage he could make one) some geometric shadowbox type shelves to hang on the wall!  Purrrrfect....

You can take the fabric into a home improvement store (Home Depot) and they can scan the green to match a paint color, although the green in the fabric might be little dark for a wall color so you might want to go a few shades lighter. White for the top of the wall will look nice with the white in the bedding. you could even add a thin pink stripe in between the white and green on the wall around the room to tie it all together. (I don't know if I'm looking at the right set because I didn't see any beige or tan.)  Is it the Pink Katie Patchwork?

I do agree with pink curtains. A darker color curtain may be useful if your nursery is on the sunny side of your home and you need to darken the room for sleeping. We have light colored curtain panels draping down the sides of our nursery windows, then dark curtains behind that I can open/shut for sleeping because the nursery receives the bright morning sunlight and keeping the room dark in the morning helps baby sleep a little longer. Those colors are popular right now, so you should be able to find some cute accessories like baskets, etc. Pretty set. Your nursery will be cute!

Oh, you are lucky, I really like it

Yeah, it's the Katie Patchwork.  I really do appreciate all your ideas!!!

the beige/tan was in the polka dotted crib sheet under the quilt in the picture.  
they are very small.  
I've done a lot of internet shopping so I've gotten good at scrutinizing pictures.

I'm going with the Kidsline Mod Ladybug bedding as well!  We've finally gotten the room painted.  It's the darker pink of the actual ladybug, then there is a think brown stripe all the way around the room with a smaller white stripe on top and bottom of the brown stripe.  We haven't got the crib together yet, but are planning on painting it white.  I will try to post a pic once it's all finished.  I'm very excited about it.

JustMe0925 - I love the patchwork.  I say go with the less visual colors, like green or khaki walls, but definitely pink curtians!
