A fairy room for your fairy princess
Fairy-themed décor is an enchanting way to adorn a girl's bedroom. This theme can be used from the beginning in a newborn's nursery, and with slight modifications as time passes, carried through well into the big-girl years.
Instructions
1. Think about your fairy style. The décor elements chosen should complement these fairies. If your child is a fan of Tinkerbell, for instance, browse the different beddings, statues, wall stickers and accessories available in the Disney and base your paint colors and other items accordingly. If you are going for a woodland fairy or enchanted forest theme, your chosen colors and decorations should fit in with that theme.
2. Select a paint color. Pale pastels work well for a light and airy space. Lavenders and sage greens also work well for that forest fairy look. You may want to add a stencil, wallpaper border or mural to the room, so choose colors that will match well. A shimmery effect on the walls is also pretty in the fairy bedroom; special glitter paint can add this touch. Decide if you want to paint the ceiling and add stars or clouds.
3. Choose fabrics for elements of the room. Light, sheer, shimmery fabrics work best. Curtains, window scarves, canopies all in a sheer texture add that flowing effect. Sheer fabric with sparkly appliqués looks beautiful in this room. Drape the fabric from anywhere such as over the bed, around windows, from the ceiling or over closet doors. You can select bedding that is fairy themed or just use bedding that matches with your fabrics.
4. Add lighting elements for that enchanted feel. White Christmas lights resemble twinkling stars or fairy lights. Paper lanterns are another element that fit in with the light fabric theme. Or you may wish to purchase fairy statue lamps, depending on your overall .
5. Decorate the walls with a fairy-land mural or wall stickers.
6. Accessorize. Some other elements you may want to consider are floral/tree branch accessories, fairy dolls, pillows, rugs and fairy picture frames, shelves and mirrors.
