Lil' Mans new room!

Lil Man's room is not gender specific, although honestly, it is kind of feminine in a neither a boy or girl way. Does that make sense? Before we had Lil' Man we found out we would be moving therefore I never put much effort into completing and decorating the nursery.

When we make the move in a little over a month - I want to finally focus on Lil Man's room. Here is the bedding we have now...
I'm thinking about taking the bumber off when we move so the base fabric / color I will be working with is the skirt - a wheat / tan / kaki gingham. This gives me TONS of options for different themes or colors.

I've been looking online at different nurserys online trying to pull ideas together. Do I make the focus on the paint and do a creative paint scheme...do I use cool fabric? Both? HELP!

One thought I have is to do a western / Texas room. Clearly I miss my home land and what better room to do some Texas stuff in than Lil Man's room! I love one of these two fabrics for curtains and a few pillows! Maybe paint the walls kaki or chocolate brown?
And I like the paint selections in these rooms as well as the feel...
I think the paint is cool in these rooms too...not necessarily the color, but the stripes...
I'm just at a loss...Chuck has a mandolin and a guitar that I thought would be cute to hang on the wall if we did western / Texas...but then is that overdone?

HELP! Send some ideas my way for Lil Mans room!!!

I don't think you could go wrong with any of these rooms...they are all precious! Isn't nursery decorating a little overwhelming and yet so much fun?
