I am so torn.
I have been working on trying to find bedding for Ella's room for MONTHS now and I can't seem to find exactly what I had in my head. She is 2 1/2 years old, so I want it to be really sweet. There is no doubt in her mind that she is a princess, so I want the room to be girly too.
Well, I came up with two possible combinations and I would love to get your opinion about which one to choose. I really love both of them. I have so many readers and friends that are a lot better at this than I am, so I would LOVE any feedback!!
First, let me remind you what I already have in this room.
So far, I have this fun raw pine armoire. Of course the accessories may change.
And an old Iron bed with a peach vintage chenille blanket I stole from my mom and a cream quilted comforter ... I guess this is the best picture I have of it... : /
And I have a few vintage/handmade touches in the room:
Ok, now here are my two options. They are completely different looks that I love equally.
I found this quilted throw at a local store, so I would probably just turn it into pillows since it isn't as big as her bed. I may even go back and get another one to use as a throw on the bed. It has peach, pink, and a dark red on a cream background. I love how sweet this combo is, but I am a little concerned it is a little too shabby chic...
This is just a quilted fabric that I found. I would make it into a duvet with the red striped ribbon as the ties. It has Red, peach, and a little green and brown. I love how fun it is with the pops of red, and I love that the red makes it match the rest of my house better.
Keep in mind that I will be adding some kind of woodwork to her walls in the near future.
Ok, so what do you think? Which would you pick?
Thanks for your help!

Choice 2 with the larger print and red striped ribbon. So much more current, and would also hide dirt better. Yes, girls do get dirty.
