My baby is Growing Up

I am starting to transition my newborns room into a toddler room. I purchased a shelving unit from Ikea that fits perfect under his bedroom window.

What I would like to do is make the wall behind the shelving unit a little more interesting- aka feature wall. I found these cedar panels we had planned to take to the dump - (i put a few up to get an idea) 

I have enough panels to do that section of the wall but cant decide if I like it or not- any input? 

This is what it looks like without the wood.
