I am redoing my girls room(they are 4 and 2,share a room) Here is the bedding that will be in there:

My problem is which one of these wallpaper borders goes best with the bedding?

thank you all! so glad that it all matches! i really loved the set at walmart and had such a hard time finding a set for younger daughter. i wanted the same color scheme and flowers, but without using the same bedding on both!
Answer
I like the first one the best, but I almost think you might want to avoid a wallpaper border? In just a few years your oldest will be "tween" age and will probably want to redecorate again! If you forget about the border and use really cute widow curtains, framed prints and/or a cute little bulletin board/ chalk board, then when your girls want an "older" looking room you can just switch those things out and get new bedding! No repainting/ wallpaper removal necessary!
If you do want to stick with the border, though, I think the first one is really cute and would go well with both bed sets. Good luck!

like where to get the sheets over the bed and the string of lanterns that size. Also any other design tip you would think look good in the room. Thanks!
Answer
Try Anthropology's home store (though it does tend to be a little expensive)
http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/catalog/category.jsp?navAction=jump&navCount=0&id=HOME
if you want something a little less expensive, try Urban Outfitters apartment section
http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/urban/catalog/category.jsp?popId=&navAction=poppushpush&isSortBy=true&navCount=27&pushId=APARTMENT&id=A_DECORATE
Both of these places have bedding, decor, and furniture that achieves that bohemian/indie/vintage look you are going for.
follow this link for the lanterns:
http://www.japanesestyle.com/catalog/partywedding/bulk-paper-lanterns
regarding the canopy style thing-- just take 2 or 3 pieces of light (not heavy) fabric of your choice that each piece should be twice the length of your bed. you can either put thumbtacks over the 4 corners of your bed on your ceiling or nail in the fabric in whatever drape-ish fashion you like.
regarding the decor: hit the second hand shops and vintage stores, they will have cool but cheap artsy papers and art that you can hang on your walls. Also, find some photography that you like and pin it all over your walls (magazine clippings will do)
also, find a pretty tapestry (they sell them at urban outfitters or vintage stores) that you like and hang it on the wall, use it as rug, or a blanket.
last but not least: dont be matchy matchy! vintage bohemian style is all about different colors and patterns coming together to create one artsy and pretty room. dont be afraid to take risks!
