  • I think I would just do a light, subtle gray. Love the bedding!

    This.

    Before I even saw the options, I was thinking all gray with some purple accents (picture frames? decals?) on top.

  • You could do stripes, semi-gloss and flat, of the lavender...

    Great idea!  All lavender or add in a different color?  I"m not very creative!

  • I would say either all light gray or a light beige.
  • I would stick with one color I think for the walls. However if you have an accent wall or something you could even do a darker purple and I think that would look good. I agree with everyone on the gray but it can be tricky to find the right shade of gray! I would almost go with a cream instead of gray.

    His. Exactly. Any lavender would be too much with that bedding.

  • maybe the darker color that is on the bedding trim, looks greyish to me. Something other than lavender since everything is so light it might be nice to go a shade or so dark on the wall so the room doesn't look washed out.

  • Everything is gorgeous, I love it! I chose lavender on bottom and dove grey on top in your poll, but also like the idea of the stripes. Personally, I like gray paint and we painted LO's nursery in Misty by SW which is a gray that looks blue-ish when it picks up blues in the room. However, I was surprised by a lot of people who thought it was odd to paint a baby's room gray, even though it is trendy right now. They just commented that it was too dreary for a nursery and better for big great rooms, hallways, bathrooms, etc. I think ours looks light blue-gray and I agree it might be hard to find the perfect gray without it looking washed out. Maybe a very pale lavender stripes  (satin/semi-gloss) would be my favorite choice or lavender on bottom and cream on top. GL!
