What is the pattern in the middle of the curtain? If it's floral, the flower tieback would be good. But, personally, I'm a sucker for birds! For the lamps, the coloring of the capiz shells seems to go with your theme. The IKEA one seems too mod. But even with the capiz one, it depends on where it will hang and how high - middle of the room would be best? The key seems to fit your travel / old world theme.

I really think that our minds make subconscious links (harmonizing links) via the visual cues we take in - so bird, flight, travel, world etc can result in a cohesive look. As for the pendant lamp, i agree the Ikea lamp is a bit overdone...if it's between the two, i would choose the other one or search for something else...? btw, i love, love your 101 things project :) may i (as an interiorista married to a real interior designer – which gives me some clout, I hope?) suggest that you go with the bird tie-backs as it then goes with your world map/travel thing happening in the room.
