    Corie - the pictures I posted above are Behr Embellished Blue! The first sample that I still have was Behr Sea Life and I loved the color but it was a bit brighter than I wanted for a nursery, but it might be perfect for your daughter!

    Here are a few pics from when I first did the nursery, I can't find the pics of it completed so excuse the mess!
    You can see the difference in color between night and day too!



    I think the 2nd pic is the truest color.
    That color is so pretty!!! I love the bedding too...I've been checking out some Land of Nod bedding. Do you like it? (Sorry to hijack Corie!!!) I've been loyal to PBK for all other crib/ kid bedding but really like some of their patterns right now at LON.

    I'll have to check the old paint from the people who used to live in our house. One of the kids rooms was the most awesome turquoise/teal color i've ever seen on a wall. i'm pretty sure it was a ralph lauren paint (as ALL their paint is RL). but we may actually have a can or paint sample left in the basement.

    I did things backwards when i started doing ds's room, i knew the color scheme that i wanted so I had to find bedding that went with it then I finalized the exact color according to the bedding. The quilt and bumper are really nice but the sheet shrunk and i can barely get it on the mattress now, actually several of my sheets of all different brands shrunk so who knows. I bought it on a day when one of the cashback sites had a high % day so I saved a bunch and I had a free shipping code too i think. I would definitely order from them again so I say go for it!

    We have a paint chip of Sherwin Williams Embellished Blue on our wall and DH really likes it as a possible color for our room. On the paint chip it looks darker than it does on the computer though:

    The next two darker shades on the card are: Waterfall (http://www.myperfectcolor.com/Match-...mpc0030291.htm), and Refresh (http://www.myperfectcolor.com/Match-...mpc0030284.htm)

    Also FWIW, I found Behr paint extremely hard to work (didn't spread evenly was the main isuue) with compared to the other brands we have used including Dunn Edwards (only available in Southwest I believe), Ralph Lauren, and Sherwin Williams. I don't get how that brand always gets such rave reviews.
