Oh I must have read your original post too qickly the first time... My daughter has a twin brother as well : ) They shared a room in our last house in TX. We moved to our current home right before their 4th birthday and I was able to give her her own room (she has 4 brothers). Anyway, when it came to painting her room she definitely had opinions. This color was a compromise between the darker pink she wanted and the lightest pink on the paint chip. I do remember seeing a lot of the bandaid pinks in my paint search. Your best bet is definitely finding a fabric you could pull the blue and pink paint from. BTW, I think that the blue treatment on the dresser is absolutely gorgeous! There is no doubt in my mind you can pull this off with a very soft pink for the walls : )

I did that in my guest room - no problem at all. The carpet is pretty low pile and the rug is a fairly thick sculpted type oriental. I have no pad under the rug. I also have a very short, dense wool oriental rug on the carpet in my living room. That also works fine. I have all these rugs on carpet because I moved from a house with wood floors to one with more carpet. I hope to get rid of the carpet someday when I feel like moving everything again. So then I will need the rugs and in the meantime I can't stand the plain beige carpet. In another room I have a thick wool runner that covers the width of carpet from the deck door to the wood floor in the dining area. It has no furniture on it that holds it in place so it ripples a bit. I need to find a way to keep it flat.

mammapinky Yes, they are. I did that on purpose. I wanted a different illusion than just the mirrors hanging, if that makes sense. I want the mirrors and curtains anchoring the bed, like a headboard. Thank you! To everyone mentioning the mirror height, don't tell my husband! (lol) He absolutely hates hanging curtains, shelves, mirrors and paintings. haha I'll have to wait to the weekend or a day we both have the time and we shall raise them. I'll have to ease him into it. ;) Should they go the same height as the curtains? Thing is, raising them any higher and the bottom of the mirrors show, which is not the effect I was going for. :/ chickadee2_gw Wow, thank you so much! :) I truly find this sight inspiring. I really appreciate all of the help you all have to offer! :) And now I can finally move on to the kitchen! rebeccamomof123 That really made me smile. :) I am so thrilled with how it all turned out and it is so nice having people to share it with, who understand. :) Thank you so much!

The carpet is actually a pretty warm gray and I love the color of the walls. I would definitely go with a Scandinavian style two-tone bedroom. No colors needed and it’s so calming. Do black in white pictures with oversized white mattes, a simple bedframe and linen sheets. Wood side table with a black metal lamp. Maybe a white fur throw rug.
