I went and picked out some bedding for the girls. Or I suppose I should say I went and picked out bedding for the girls...again. I am so horribly indecisive. It takes me forever to settle on something. I think that I am always thinking there just might be something out there that might be just a little bit cuter. :)
So I need your help. What do you think of this bedding?

The bedding is also reversible which I really like.
I also have blue, green, and a shade of orange polka dots painted on the walls. I don't think the colors don't look too bad with bedding, but what do you think? Should I just paint over them and change the colors to match the bedding?
Do you see how this can take me forever to make up my mind. Oh the decisions! :)
And for those that are wondering, yes I keep the tags on until I am 100% positive that I like the bedding. Horrible, I know.

My current room that I am trying to finish is the girl's bedroom. Unfortunately, I don't want to hang anything on the walls until I find them bunk beds. And I am determined to find white bunk beds, hopefully a twin over full.
Last night we went to look at some and were disappointed yet again. They needed another coat of paint very bad and, well...they smelled funny. I know, I probably shouldn't be so picky if I am buying used furniture but they wanted $250.00! I thought that was very high for some bunk beds that weren't even in that good of shape. But maybe I have set my hopes too high. After all, this is the picture that I saw that started the whole search for white bunk beds.
Of course I had to find the MOST expensive set of bunk beds to compare everything else to. Yes, this is out of the Pottery Barn Kids magazine. Aren't they so adorable? I have been searching craigslist now for about 6 months if not a little bit longer and I have not been able to find anything similar to it. And the ones that I did find that were similar sold in 1 day! Crazy!
So now my question to all...probably 2 of you that read this :) is if you think I should maybe start to think of buying new. I found a 40% off coupon to a furniture store around the corner from our house that supposedly has good prices. Do you think I should even go in there and then have even more expensive sets in my mind that I would like or should I try to be patient and continue searching craigslist? There isn't any big hurry, although I would like to have them before Piper turns 2 in about 6 months.
So please let me know what you think because I am starting to run out of patience and getting a little tired or checking out very sad looking bunk bed sets. :)
