Okay, I am moving and want a differently designed room. So I was looking for beachy and tropical bedspreads and found this towel that has the design I want in a bedspread.
here is the link.

but there aren't any bedspreads that are postcard related? So if anyone can tell me where to have one made like that or something that would be awesome!
thanks!
Thanks so much those were very good ideas:)
Answers:
Eagle Eye: I have an idea that perhaps you might like find a bedspread the same colour of the trim on the towel and buy a few of those towels sew them together and make pillows for your your bed . I have seen shower curtains if those are made of fabric you could use that fabric as well to make borders for sheets in the turquoise colour , get some sea shells and put them in glass vases and try to find some wicker baskets to store all your things in them , you can pick themes out of the postcards that are printed on the fabric.

or you could make your own fabric if you wish

FeeVerte: I visited the Tommy Bahama website... they carry a pretty decent selection of comforters and bedspreads that might work for you. (see link below)

Bottom line: You don't want to over-do it. If you have a very busy comforter, make it the focal point of your room by using neutral wall colors, and simple bamboo or wicker window treatments.
If you have busy drapes or wallpaper, use a quieter / simpler bedding. A bedroom should be relaxing, not feel like a busy airport.
Personally, I liked the Tommy Bahama "Orange Cay" comforter set. I can visualize this in a bedroom with soft green, taupe, ivory or golden walls, Bermuda shutters or wicker window treatments. Perhaps a good-quality silk palm tree or tropical plant to add to the feel. Choose some prints or posters from Aruba, Jamaica or other tropical destinations, and have them framed to add the finishing touches.
There is an exclusive, luxury resort island off the coast of Miami called "Little Palm Island"... it's obscenely expensive. The link below will show you how they've decorated their guest houses. They all have a tropical feel, but are sophisticated and relaxing:

I wish you luck!
