nursery brainstorms...

Today I believe we made our nursery colors official- sounds so important haha! The once guest room was  painted sea foam green ( a turquoise/ aqua color ) with the knowledge that it would probably one day become a nursery- and we planned to paint it a color that would be a great nursery color as well. So we are very happy with the wall color. But choosing a color to compliment it has been a little bit more of the tougher decision. After scouring pinterest and other sites, I had narrowed my likings down to yellow, orange or a light green. In the end, orange is the winner. We feel like its bright enough to stimulate the baby and fun enough to keep it eclectic and interesting. I didnt want a "boys" room of royal or navy blue and dark primary colors- i kind of get tired of the pigeon hold that gets placed on boys to only want those typical colors and also the idea that they must have a "boys" theme such as cars or heavy machinery!  I would like something light, airy, interesting yet chic and modern. The walls will remain aqua, furniture is all white and there will be accents of orange (with the possibility of black in the bedding as well)...
some examples of the colors next to each other....
