Colors chosen!

When we moved into our current house, the previous owner had painted a monkey on Ace's wall and we just kept it there until we redecorated his room big-boy style. About two years ago, this pattern came around at Pottery Barn and I loved it just to keep the monkey theme alive.

Toro Loco was but a twinkle in Jonathan's eye at that time so I didn't purchase anything and lamented when I noticed that they weren't carrying it anymore. Lo and behold, it is all on clearance right now! Of course, they don't have all of the pillows, duvets, etc. etc. that they used to, so I just bought a few curtain panels and a few crib sheets.
I figure I can give my sewing machine a workout and create the crib skirt and curtains I want now and save the other material for when she grows into toddler-hood and beyond. Now, I'll be on the hunt for a coordinating fabric to fill in any holes left by a lack of fabric.

I'm super excited though. I can't wait to paint the room (I'm thinking chocolate brown like the monkey's head) with one dark, magenta pink wall. We'll see...
