Great idea, to pull an element from the bedding and use it elsewhere in the room -- I like the way you're putting so much of yourselves into the re-decoration of your house, doing it as a real team, too! Hmm, you've reminded me of something else: I must try to find a picture of a nursery job where I made a custom stencil for the top of the wall, based on the print in the bedding and curtains. Getting the repeat right was really the only hard part; that and meeting at the corners. And working with the wiggly line left by the commercial painters who prepared the base coats!

We've bought nearly the entire "Monkey Boy" collection from Target to decorate our guest bedroom that's being transformed into a kid's room. And to take it a step further, Dede decided to gussy up one of the walls with a design she calls <a href="http://www.2dolphins.com/2007/05/monkey-island-is-complete.html">Monkey Island</a>.
