Q: I am looking for some fun artwork to put in my nursery. I have purchased the Dwell Studio bedding in the pink dot and looking for something the compliment it. I have been looking everywhere and have been having trouble. Any advice on where to look?




Did you try an Etsy search?... I have the dwell studio chocolate dots and we found a ton of choices there!

I find some really amazing stuff on this site. And the fun news is that it is free. It's an effort to get visibility for new and upcoming artists. Here is the link.

since the dots bedding isnt themey and is a geometric print it should be pretty easy to find artwork to work in the room, i would think anything with a little of the hot pink would work!
what about stretching a fun printed fabric over a canvas?

suuuuuuuper fun kids artwork. absolutely endless possibilities with that. orange looks fantastic with the fushia in the bedding, and softer pinks work too.

Hi Sara, this is a bit of a plug but I've just designed a great alphabet print for the nursery and the pink and brown option would match the bedding perfectly!!!!

i have that bedding in my daughter's room and i've found lots of stuff that works with it. i really love that shade of pink with yellow colors, and because it is so modern and crisp something vintagey like a poster or map would be great too! i did a spray painted frame with a piece of wallpaper, which you can see here with your same bedding, you can buy yards of wallpaper if there is one you like:

Hi
Depends on your budget. Avalisa (mentioned above) would be great or for a cheaper but also stylish alternative, Lorena Siminovich / Petit Collage's Animal Alphabet Print in hot pink and orange would be great too. see

The Dwell bedding is fantastic and gives you a lot to work with to make a really special room with high impact.

I have this crib bedding. We bought the large version of this print to put above the crib http://oopsydaisy.com/6202-W1-MW.aspx, and it matches really nicely.

I have this bedding in twin, and I think "complement" is the key phrase. You don't want to get too matchy, maybe just a hint of pink like this (there are LOTS of great other options in this shop):

also, orange looks great with the fuschia and these are great prints (you could do a couple of other orange accents in the room to pull it together):
