Hello everyone! My daughter will be one year old in less than 2 weeks, we decided to finally do her room (I know a little late lol). Anyways, we are doing her furniture in Espresso color (almost black) and here is a picture of her bedding set: The only thing that is not included is the hanging wall art and lamp.

I have made a screenshot of something with colors, I think her room will look good in these colors, I am thinking sheer tan for the curtains, any help appreciated thanks guys! Note: I do not know what I am doing, just trying!! Lol. She will have Espresso colored hanging letters spelling her name above her crib, the light switch and electrical outlet will have pink dots on them as well.

I had to copy and paste your image links, I don't know why the photos aren't showing up. I like the colour scheme, but I'd be very careful not to choose too dark nuances, because I don't like too dark rooms. Good luck with the room, please post some photos when you're done.

I got a shade darker on the pink that was in the bedding set because it was practically white and I did not like that, 3 walls will be pink and the other 1 will be brown, the pink walls will have windows so it will make it pop...Should be done around the 20th, I will post pictures, thanks for the input...Anyone else?

Your daughters room is very stylish and pretty. The colour combinations are really great. However, I would introduce lots of bright colours, maybe with mobiles, toys and pictures, as babies love strong colours to focus on.

My niece has the same set. She painted one wall brown and three pink, just like you. Can't remember what she did for curtains, but I remember it is precious. We will be waiting for pictures!

I too love the color scheme you have here. Some of my favorite colors to put together are pinks and browns and its perfect for a girls room. I would suggest throwing in something, like another color, to punch it up a bit. While it's a lovely room, I think that since everything is the same pink and brown, a little something extra is needed to complete the room. Can't wait for more pictures!
