Nursery Help!

so esme will be sharing a room with finn
(no lavender fairy room yet  ). his room isn't
100% boy, the walls are green and it's a
farm theme. any ideas about what girly
touches i could add for esme? the only
thing i can think of, and it's not much,
is hanging the letters that spell out her
name with red gingham ribbon (finn's name
is just stuck on the wall).
i have pics of the nursery if that would
help. i need suggestions!

Pics would be awesome. The ribbon idea
sounds cute. You could also separate the
sides and doe a theme for each that kind
of tie in. Maybe butterflies and lady
bugs for her since that kind of goes with
the farm theme?

we have to do some rearranging too. the
crib is going to be against the wall where
the chair is, the bookcase is going to be
next to the crib, finn's toddler bed will
be where the bookcase is or switched with
the dresser, and i don't know what we're
doing with the chair.

This is harder than I thought it was going
to be. I have no ideas at all
Butterflies & ladybugs sounds cute
though!

ok, i think i've thought of something that
has the potential to be wicked cute. my
mom is an artist, so she could paint
flowers on one wall and then we could nail
up a section of white picket fence (the
flowers would be taller than the fence).
what do you think?
i like ladybugs too!

Sleeping barn cats with violet ribbons on
their heads? Lightbugs in girly colors?
Maybe some pretty birds?

Ooo, Lightning bugs sound cute too.
Anything colorful that relate s to nature
would probably go well.
I also like the flowers and the picket
fence idea as well.

I like your idea B. Can you do 1 wall
boyish, and 1 wall girly? I'd say do 2
walls for each, but then it might get too
busy. Could you do their hand prints on
the wall?

thanks girls!
i still don't really know what i'm going
to do. i'll have to see what kind of
giftcards i get at christmas. i can't wait
to get started though!
so after rearranging the room in my head,
the only wall where the flowers/fence
thing would work would be over the
radiator under the windows. would that
look lame? the fence would be much shorter
than i'd originally envisioned.

I think that is a pretty neutral wall
color and purple would probably be really
pretty with it. Maybe you could do one
side girl and one side boy?
