Help me find bedding for my girls room.
Finally, furniture delivered. My daughter picked this room out of tens of them. The wall color is yellow and green and i am finding it difficult to find a bedding set that matches the color of the room and the curtain and that she still likes. Most out there are pink. Any ideas?
Thank you
Thank you

I think you need to get right away from any more green and yellow - its vibrating.
Bring in chrome, cream, whites, maybe another saturated colour - like purple something to ground it.
I realize the mood board below may be a bit too mature for your daughter, but maybe try black and white bedding? Or Purple with bright white - if you do introduce more green - make it richer, darker not so bright. Good Luck!
Please don't be tempted to put any more yellow in as that would throw the colour balance right out. You have several shades of green which work well with just one shade of yellow but would look overwhelming with more colours. Introducing additional colours or patterns in the bedding would look messy, especially as she will no doubt add lots of other pattern and colour with all her stuff.
P.S. That has got to be the thickest mattress I have ever seen - it makes me think of the fairy story about the princess and the pea. I bet your little princess sleeps well on it!

Then you could repaint the yellow to green, the lightest stripe colour. If your daughter likes yellow, use it so it has more impact, in the accessories and bedding. I would include hot pink as the main accessorizing colour, then yellow. Really, I'm just copying from a great room that Samantha Pynn did a on Pure Design, HGTV, which was all green with small touches of hot pink. The circle wall art was a do-it-yourself project for the girl. You can watch the entire episode on this blog. I like the rustic-crafty stuffed animal.

I love all your ideas. Thank you so much. I am going to look for white with a bit of purple since that she loves purple. Oh my, monogramming a pillow is an awesome idea!
Thanks!
I thought about the outlet when I was putting the furniture. I felt that moving the bed and nightstand towards the door to hide the outlet would make the room look and feel smaller. No?
I can't really see what's on the other side of the room, but I would want the bed centered on that wall if possible. If the outlet is exposed it would drive me crazy, that's all. Maybe she has a large stuffed animal that could sit with it's back to the nightstand, kind of whimsical? I have a 50 year old teddy bear that's seen more homes than Carter has pills!
