Wall Stencils

Howdy!  The master bathroom paint job was completed Sunday - yay for me!  Now on to the window treatment and the stencil for the toilet room.

I found a great site with TONS of different stencils.  I love so many of them, I don't know how I'm going to choose!  Hobby Lobby has some wall stencils, and I have some of them, but I need something larger scaled because of the height of the wall.

I also keep going back and forth about what color to do - should I do the color of the trim or the chocolate brown on the ceiling? I could also just do water based polyurethane to make it shiny, or maybe the same color with a little pearlessence to it.  I hate choices!

I want something not too girly since this is Joe's bathroom too - I'm trying to stay away from the Damasks in particular. 

As I looked and looked at the stencils I think the trick for them is to pick a color combo and shape that when it's complete - will look like wallpaper. 

Too masculine?

Ugh.  Guess I should start narrowing it down.  But I wouldn't mind at all if you shared your opinion of what I should do!
