Jen- I had my bedding custom made and this would be my advice. Take it with a grain of salt.. I was not comfortable with having my bumpers in my bed once Charlie could roll around so I took them out. They were a waste of money IMO. I am happier with the money that I spent on my window treatments because I know we will continue to use those after it is no longer the nursery. Same thing with the rug. The crib skirt was not expensive because of the style we did. I did not make/buy a quilt. Here are a few pictures.. we use the same colors. A GREAT paint for those colors is Snow Goose by Platt and Lambert (sp?) Such a pretty pretty PALE blue, almost white. I love it.

Window treatments (the roman shades have black out backing which is AWESOME for naptime)
