"We have the green in my daughter's room, and they are great. At the moment we have an animal valance over them which matches perfectly, but without the valance they will be great as she gets older and outgrows the more babyish animals. The dots are a nice bright green, matches perfectly with Land of Nod gingham, like the floor cushions. No need to purchase holdbacks, these come with a really cute crescent shaped fabric tie back. Definitely recommended!"
