Decor, Decals and Deck Shoes

After a trip to Home Depot and picking up every colour catalogue and paint chip they had we spent a few nights trying to agree on what colour scheme to use for the inside of SweetHaven. We've managed to find one we both like.

The colours look more purpley in this picture but they are actually blue. Hopefully these colours will be light enough with a mix of cool and warm colours to make is cozy in a small space. The inside walls of the boat will be the soft white colour to keep it bight, the cushions and mattresses in the bunks will be the light blue colour and accessories, like pillows and curtains will be a mix of the darker blue and yellow. 
Now that we have a general colour scheme it's on to try and find materials in those colours. Easier said than done on Whidbey Island where the extent of my material selection is a few super expensive quilting shops and whatever the Walmart fabric department had to offer.

Now that we've dealt with the inside decisions we need to decide on what kind of decals to get for christening and officially making Aukai into SweetHaven. Below are the fonts we like but if anyone has any suggestions on which one they prefer feel free to leave a comment and help us narrow it down.

And lastly, what self-respecting boat owner doesn't have a pair of deck shoes? Here is my first pair I've ever owned, bought with some birthday money. Thank you Nanny and Baba!
