The color of the linen should be purple or pink. Keep a beautiful pink throw rug in the center of the room where your little princess can play. Use tiaras, wands, feather boas, and princess books as decorative items.
Bugs and Butterflies Theme
Images of colorful butterflies, caterpillars, bumble bees, dragonflies, ladybugs all over the room will make it look very pretty. Keep the base coat of the wall a dark pink color.
Then, use bug stencils to paint cute cartoon insects of different shapes and sizes. On one of the walls, you can make a ladybug-like print by making circles with black paint.
Put up some framed pictures of bugs, and hang some plush toys from the ceiling just above her crib so that she can play with them. You can easily find baby bedding with a bugs and butterflies theme. Any type of wood furniture will be suitable for this theme.
Starry Night Theme
Little girls love to see the celestial bodies all around them. You can draw patterns of stars, moon, planets, and even constellations on the ceiling.Keep the base coat of the walls a light blue, and use a darker shade of blue for the ceiling. Then, use pastel and white paint to create the celestial bodies.
You can also paste star cutouts with sticky backing on the painted walls. To make it look even better, add some white clouds on the ceiling with a sponge and white paint. If you do not want to paint the walls, wallpapers of this particular theme can be put up.
Paint the furniture as per the theme by stamping star patterns with star-shaped rubber stamps dipped in white paint. You can also get lamps, baby bedding, quilts, rugs, and cushions with images of stars.
Garden Theme
This colorful theme will make your child feel closer to the nature. The base coat of the wall should ideally be a pastel color; however, you can experiment with other colors such as shades of greens or yellows as well.
Make the most visible wall of the room as the focal point. Create the garden theme on this wall. Paint the lower portion of the wall with green and the top with sky blue. Then use your creativity to paint various colorful flowers on the green part of the wall.
On the blue portion, you can draw images of birds, bees, and butterflies. Painting small cluster of clouds or a bright yellow sun is a great idea. You can opt freehand painting, but if you are not very confident about your painting skills, feel free to use stencils.
Keep the base color of the furniture and other furnishings white. The bedding, drapes, and other fabrics in the room should have floral prints on them.
