It probably looks so good in natural light rather than photos, and if you make co-ordinating pillow cases or tossed pillows with the green and blue accents, the bed will just be so amazing.<BR/>On Design Inc., here in Canada, Sarah Richardson uses those colours all the time..

My opinion, I would add a bit more brown to the left hand side of the pic and remove the dark green with lighter green fabric. it just doesn't seem to flow.
