I thought some Flor carpeting (like this and mixing in some yellow tiles) or this PB Teen rug might be a good start, but I can't seem to find much else for inspiration (I'd love some throw pillows for the bed with all 3 colors). Any specific ideas/inspiration/products would be welcomed!
Editor: While it was harder finding rooms that combined all three of these colors, The mini-gallery above shows rooms that use at least two of these colors together. I think your idea of pulling all three together in a rug is definitely on the right track. Artwork is another great way to use these colors in combination. You can search for "pink yellow orange" in the art section of Etsy, for example, and find artwork with these colors together. Readers, what do you think? Any advice for Kelly?

Commercial Flour Sa...
I think it will look great. I'd probably choose white or dark brown furniture though, and not the honey colored daybed above.
I love the yellow orange and pink combo! If I am ever blessed with a girl I think I would go with a similar pallet. I agree with JudiAU on the honey colored wood, nothing a can of paint can't fix!
You could use some pink fabric paint and outline the orange flowers on the bedding, then it would have all three colours in the bedding. I'd pick one colour as the main (maybe the yellow?) and use the other two to accent it.
I think it will look great, although I would suggest using white to balance the colors out and make it somewhat elegant - plus white will match with the white on the bedding.
Yes, just make sure your pink has some yellow in it... more of a "Shell Pink," which will also take some of the sweetness off the scheme. Then make sure you bounce your colors around. A little chocolate in your peanut butter, as it were!
You could also get extra bedding, and use it to make welting on a pink pillow. Instant scheme marriage!
It's a lovely combination for a girl's room, definitely use white to ground all these bright hue's. Visit store's like home good's for more inspiration. Let your 'lil girl create her own art with your help,it's going to be unique.
I myself am in the same situation as you are,since we recently bought our first home,have 2 girls (5yrs & a 17 mth old) & in the process of decorating their room. I painted the walls a light aqua, the other accent colours, are yellow with splashes of pink,& used white for furniture. Let's see how it goes...this is what I have in mind so far!
And also visit the serena&lily website they have some beautiful rooms for girls.
Yes! Pink, orange, and yellow TOTALLY work together! Love it!
I write a blog about pink and orange things. Here are a few past posts about kid's rooms (some from ohdeedoh) that have yellow in them too:

Wow - lots of good input already! Thanks. I should mention that her furniture is chocolate brown. (That futon in the room in the picture is from the prior owners).
I've been browsing for rugs for my daughter's room and liked the Dash and Albert cotton rugs. "Tangerine Dream" has pink, orange, and yellow stripes and might be a good alternative to the Flor rugs (and a good price!)

emilyamelie - do you have any more info about that "Baby's Bold Bedroom"? (The link doesn't work, but I like the fabric used on the curtains)
Try this link for the BHG 'Bold 'Bedroom.' Good luck!

Have you ever used the website Olioboard?
It's GREAT for looking for things in certain color combinations because you can search by color. I actually started working on a room using those exact colors:

I think the key is just to find some pops of pink, like a piece of furniture or a lamp/light fixture. And then don't be afraid to add in another pattern that incorporates all 3 colors. Use it for pillows, drapes, or create your own artwork by framing squares of the fabric.
I think it will look great--my only advice would be to choose a warm pink, and make sure to banish any cool colors--warm and white/neutrals only. I think the chocolate brown will be a great neutral with that.
Send pictures when you are done!
Though there are tons of art choices, something like this print might be a fun choice: http://www.etsy.com/listing/59911577/mum-13-x-19-inch-fine-art-print?ref=sr_gallery_10&ga_search_query=yellow+orange+pink+kids&ga_noautofacet=1&ga_search_type=handmade&ga_facet=handmade%2Fart
Also, don't feel that every item that goes into the room has to be all three colors--particularly as, when your daughter decides she *actually* really loves purple next year, you can trade out a few of the accessories without starting totally over. Have fun!
Thanks Saderchick! Yes, it's from Better Homes and Gardens. I haven't been able to figure out who makes the curtain fabric though :/
I agree with the comments about balancing the colours out, with whites or dark browns. I think white would be best, to keep it light. I would paint the walls a bright white, and add in the other colours. I personally think orange, pink, and yellow walls are a little too loud for the place a three year old will sleep! But the colours will be fantastic together. :)
