It's funny you should say that, that is what I was originally going to do, the blue border, then the beige. I know it looks kinda yellow in the pic but it actually a very pretty beige. These are the colors she chose. I just took a picture with the beige instead of the piano border - I will send that to her to see what she thinks of that option. THANKS!!

beige border instead of piano key in blues
