girls bedroom cheap decorating ideas image
shocker83_
We are remodeling our girls' room and they are wanting a fairy theme. We already have the walls painted white with an allover sponge effect done in pink, so I'd like to mainly stick to that color and perhaps incorporate a bit of purple too. I'm looking for some creative ways to decorate using this theme. I am very crafty, so I would love to hear some DIY ideas although any other "thrifty" ideas are great too, since we are also remodeling our boys' bedroom as well and are on a strict budget. Thank you!

If it isn't too expensive, you can paint the crown molding the lavender or purple to add dimension. You can go to the halloween stores online now while the stuff is cheap or to Lillian Vernon and Oriental Trading Company and find the Fairy Wings that come in Costumes and Hang them above their beds or in the corner of the room.
There is this craft I made with my daughter a few years back of these flower fairies: with wooden beads as heads, pipe cleaner as bodies, and silk flowers as dresses. You can probably google it and find it easy enough but they can be hung up with fishing wire. Very cute.
Also think about painting the ceiling with a bunch of fluffy white clouds or hanging a cute chandelier you can get a garage or estate sale.
Oh yeah! I had one of those bed canopies on my daughters bed for years! Totally forgot about that!

I asked in a different section but got no answers...
When I google girls bedroom it comes up with all fancy rooms, there is no way we have the money to do them.
Does anyone know any websites where I can look at plain rooms to get ideas?

We did a mural. It was cheap, it was a blast and it came out great. We didn't go with any particular theme, because they outgrow characters so quickly. What we did was paint the walls lavender, paint a picket fence around the room, then we did online searches for girly things like ballerinas, butterflies, etc. We printed them out full-paper size and cut them out reverse (ie., stencil) and splotched away - by doing so were able to paint some great characters around the room. Best of all it looked professional and artistic. Like we knew what we were doing! For finishing touches we added flowers popping through the picket fence, and put some 3D touches up: We painted a simple kite, but put a real ribbon on it for a tail; we have decorative wrapping paper kind of string on the ballet slippers we painted, etc. I did a lion and it looks SO HARD to do, but it really wasn't. The lion has a "real" bow in her hair for that 3D effect. If you have a FB add me, I have an album you can see, it's all pictures from her room.
We did a similar one for our son. We rag rolled brown, green and green for a cammo look and I did a search for army guys and tanks that I printed out. Those stencils I planned to do just in black around the room, but he likes it the way it is, so I just put those aside for now. When/if he wants to add them, it'll be simple.
