It is not traditional but we all have a little rebellious streak in us. Love it. My first baby nursery was soft yellow with lime green and orange accents. I can relate to the this mom's desire to avoid all of those cutesie little figures and patterns. Some just don't lean that way. I love the pattern and it sound like this gal has a plan that will be beautiful. My only thought is that a child can be overstimulated by too much bright colors in their sleeping area. That is word from the child development instructor. Enjoy the fun of making a beautiful room for this new special child.
