I like the blue and the flowered, but I think I would have picked up on the rose color or white where the green is.

You can't see the leaves on the roses but it's the same green as the bottom of the fan.

Kim S, what about using pink to match the pink in the flowers in the half circle part and then using your green for the background. I think that would make your fans really pop, create contrast and yet be subtle all at the same time.

Either a creamy white for vintage look , and absolutly a few shades darker if you want a blue backgroound so the fans will show on top of the background.Very nice so far!
