I want to live in her room!!
Let her paint it, if you can. Paint is not all that expensive and wall color just isn't a battle worth fighting. When my oldest son was that age, he painted his wall soft grey and then used squirt guns and spray bottles to add bright primary colors. It didn't suit my taste, but I earned a ton of "cool Mom" points and it was not that big a deal to paint over when he moved out.

Beautiful quilt and pillows. My daughter's room is 2 dark shades of aqua with white bedding and it is gorgeous. I say aqua is a MUST! It will really highlight the quilt. Plus it's easy enough to paint over later.
