D&R: Help with nursery?

Nursery so far:  (not pictured, a white dresser across from the crib).  I plan to get white or soft pink curtains and sheets.  I also plan to get a glider to go in one of the corners by the window.  I'm going for a dandelion theme...image

My original color scheme thoughts:

I want this photo.  And I have a little hanging "M" that I covered with purple scrap book paper.  Now, for my questions.  I'm liking a couple of wall decals.  I love this one and these.  I was thinking of placing them together so the little girl is kinda under the tall dandelions.  Maybe in the corner by the crib.  Do you think that's too many decals?  And what color would you do?  I was thinking maybe "violet" in the dandelions, then the "matte violet" for the little girl?

  • Oh, I love that fabric! And the photo!!

    For the decals - I would do just the girl. By the way, I have used that site and they are amazing! They are local here in Jax. They have been on Groupon so that is worth looking into. Also if you sign up for their "backlots" site you get $5 off.  http://dalidecals.com/backlot/ I would definitely do a matte finish for the decal. I'd probably do white for the decal and use color in other areas of the room. White will pop more, IMO. I recommend ordering color samples because it can be hard to tell on the computer.

  • I love the wall color and the dandelion theme. I agree with Fawn, I think white decals would be good with the wall color. Michaela is going to have such a cute room!

    Thanks so much!  I hadn't seen that.  I'll put you down as my referral.  :)

  • DD's room is a greenish color with white/pink/tan accents, so it is kind of in the same ball park as your nursery. As you can see in this pic, the white stands out much more! This pink is their "pale pink" so as you can see it's not quite so pale against the green.

  • I agree on the white matte color. I like the crispness and how white pops against that wall color. I think you could bring color in with pictures and other things around the room. I think you can do both decals if you want. It's such a cute theme. I love that fabric & your color palette.

  • I would probably just do the dandelions in white.  Looks like the room is going to be very cute!

  • I like the dandelion decal better than the little girl, and another vote for white. I think both decals would be too much. Love what you have done so far!
