The shade matches almost too well.This would look great with a white or even burlap shade:http://www.target.com/p/threshold-double...

Enjoy decorating .

Yes, they are equally awful

I don't know much about design. I'm in the market for 2 bedside lamps. I found two lampshades that sort of match the pattern in our comforter and I think would look nice. See links. Is this the way to go or can it get too "matchy matchy"? Would this look good or am I better off getting a solid color lamp shade? Thanks!
