Help please! Girls' bedding question

We're moving my daughter to a twin size bed and we're really hoping she'll like it enough to, you know, sleep in it (as opposed to our bed). Her room is currently pink and green and wouldn't you know it, but her current favorite color is blue. We're not painting her room, so now I need to find some cute bedding that has pink, green, and blue and that doesn't cost a fortune. Any suggestions? Have you seen anything cute lately?

Thanks!
Anne

My daughter has this one Circo Happy Flower Bedding Collection : Target from Target. Depends the shades of blue, pink, and green you are working with but it has all those colors, is girly, and the price is good.

Though DD still ends up in our bed most nights so it didn't work for us in that dept.

traget, Kmart, Walmart, Meijer all have bedding right now with these colors and a few more in polka dots. They are quite nice and will go with quite a bunch of colors. There is a picture of it on my blog from about a week ago when I bought a set for the exchange student we are hosting this year.

Love to you

Take a look at IKEA!!! My daughters entire room is from here, and we love it! Inexpensive too. If there isn't a store near you, check online. LOVE this store!!

Also check out overstock.com. They often have reasonably priced bed-in-a-bag sets with the colors you are looking for. I ordered my daughter's through there a few years ago and had good luck.

penny's has some cute girls bedding - with lots of color combonations and reasonably priced.

It is out there - you just need to look.

My daughter announced her favorite color as blue right after I redecorated her room yellow, pink and raspberry. Oh well.

Thanks everyone! Great suggestions! I have high hopes now (until she decides her favorite color is purple anyway).

We found a cute quilt at Domestications. It's not the highest quality, but it still looks good after several washings. It has purple in it too. ;-)

A couple of my favorites have already mentioned, but also try Land of Nod(the kids store from Crate and Barrell) and The Company Store for Kids. They both have some really cute things!

I second the Company Store, but also suggest Overstock.com. I was shocked to see the cute, high quality kids bedding there.
