That’s what little girls are made of. So why shouldn’t they have a sweet room to rest the heads? Children’s rooms let you tap into your inner child and, regardless of your budget, there are ways to create looks that are very special.
Maybe because I grew up during the “preppy” craze and lived by the Preppy Handbook, my favorite color combination is pink and green.
Drool, drool, DROOL!!! The fabric on the chair is gorgeous! And I love storage – there is never enough – and dead space or under-utilized space drives me nuts! A window seat can be built with bookshelves to create a reading nook like this, although I would probably install a pretty iron window grille to ensure that there are no accidents. Maybe like this, which I found for $29:
But I would paint it white.
For the little girl who is a princess….
Color blocking isn’t just for clothes. And the art on the wall is something I think anyone could do!!
Little details make a well-designed room. The trim on this chair is a nice touch and one that can be replicated.
Even adding trim to store bought drapes, lampshades, bedskirts and sofas are a way to take a product that many may have and turn it into something that no one has…and that’s something you should strive for.
A beautiful, ornate, Venetian mirror!!!
Glamour with a mirrored desk and a floor mirror.
You may recognize this photo…see the little bird houses? Another Venetian mirror. I have one in my youngest child’s room just like this one, but if I had seen the other one two pictures up, I would have bought that one instead. The mirror and birdhouses offsets the sleek, linear and modern design of the furniture.
What a fun color! I love the monogram on the headboard and the height of the bed.
There is no doubt that this blue room is ultra feminine! It is simultaneously simple and luxurious.
This quaint bedroom has a nice color combination, but what I really like about this room are the high baseboards and bed.
Pale, pale pink with black and white curtains and a modern mirror make a little girl’s room that can take her into her teenage years.
Here’s a light pink that has a hint of peach. The gauzy panels of the canopy bed look ethereal and the bamboo furniture is something that could have been found in an attic or Craigslist and painted white for a new life.
This little desk setup could be used in many places in your house, which doesn’t have to be a set, just look for a table and an interesting chair. The paint will tie them together.
Having wallpaper this busy, it needs to grounded with solids, especially if there are only 2 colors in the whole room.
In looking through the hundreds upon hundreds of pictures I have of kids’ rooms, i noticed that I have many bedrooms with two (or more) beds. Is there a need for a shared bedroom post? Please let me know and if so, what gender or if it’s both. What about nurseries?
I can’t tell you how much I appreciate all the kind comments and encouragement. I sometimes fall off and don’t get a chance to respond to all the comments, but I do read every one! As with everyone, it is hard to find time to devote to my blog, but I feed off of your words and they absolutely inspire me to spend the time, try harder and do my best. For that, thank you!
I hope you have a great day!
Oh my, I don’t know what to choose! But the color blocking of the wall is a fantastic idea! I think I will seriously consider it!
Not that keen on the carpet in picture one, but everything else is fantastic.
Reblogged this on Catholic Glasses and commented:
Beautiful colors!
Lovely inspirational post. If you come across any ideas for an outdoorsy, tomboy eleven-year-old, I’d love to see them. Pink will not do; she likes yellow. Her room badly needs a complete overhaul but, while she is still a little girl now, it won’t be long before she hits her teens! Definitely a challenge to get it right.
You are so smart to do it before she’s a teenager!! I do have a lot of yellow rooms I can post for you. Did you look at the post “Beyond Pink”? I did that post with you in mind!
Hi. Thank you for this reply. I had trouble downloading your Beyond Pink post on the day and then I forgot about it afterwards. Thanks for reminding me. I have shown it to my daughter this morning and it was a huge help as she had definite preferences. I will comment on it there. I also showed her this one. She surprised me by having a definite preference for the more minimal rooms. It’s very helpful to have discovered that, although I don’t know where she thinks we’re going to put all her stuff!
Lol! She’s not going to get bogged down by the details! I can post some more minimal rooms as well after my next 2 posts which are adult bedrooms. The one (orange leafy) that she likes also has pink as the accent…is that a color combo she likes? I need to do a post soon on sneaky storage solutions!
She has always reacted against pink in the past as it clashes with her tomboy persona but perhaps times have changed. I will have to probe further!
Every little girl should have a room as beautiful as these are.
I love this post I love eveything but the chair in the first one stood out the most for me.

Can’t hit a “like” button; only a “love” button will suffice for your amazing posts. Exquisite, as always.
I really like the chair with it’s simple gingham cover, and the off white tassels and fringe. I wouldn’t think those particular elements would go together, but there is something charming about the chair, dressed as it is. Very nice. 🙂
Darling ideas for the little princesses in our lives:)
OMG are you serious?
I hope that’s good?
I can’t focus!
Every picture is my favorite until I see the next one!!!
🙂
Oh girl you are making me drool left and right. As I have said before my bedroom is beyond needing help so all of this is wonderful. It won’t get done anytime soon and it will all have to be in little tiny bits and almost no money but maybe eventually. I love having so much to choose from though. That pumpkin princess bed is perfect for my granddaughter. I will have to show that to them! And the pink chair with tassles is fabulous!
I have started to think about no cost/budget decorating ideas and when I get that more flushed out in my mind, I’ll do a post on it! I also think that there is a way to make the pumpkin bed, I just need to research materials, after which I’ll do a post… Thank you for the sweet words!!
I can’t wait! I was wondering how it could be made also. Oh but you know what might be just as nice? A painted one in the shape right behind the bed. Hmmm I would love to try that. I have an idea but not sure, let me think on it.
I adore window seats, so just love your first picture! I’m so glad that I have two boys and not two girls, as I’m sure I’d go absolutely broke between the decorating and the clothes. Love you site, you’re inspiring me. x
Hi! What a beautiful mix of all things little girl – ballerina, tea parties, dress up & pinky pinks!
The princess coach room, I want it! I’m only 47.
Don’t know how Hubby would feel about sleeping there. We may need seperate rooms.
Slowly working on my living room, still trying to get the tv moved. Will post soon.
Wow…In love with all of these rooms. My favorite room is the yellow one.
Gorgeous rooms. The first one with the window seat and bookshelves is stunning. I share your passion for utilizing dead space. Thanks for sharing.
Regards, Betty
Love. It.
Every single photo.
🙂
I’m forwarding this to my daughter. Again!! 🙂
She needs to sign up for my email alerts 🙂
I will make sure she does. She loves your blog!!
Oh good!! I was trying to save you a step!
🙂
Oh! I love the blue room! What a gorgeous idea, with the mini clothing rack! (wheels turning…)
The Venetian mirror is ridiculously cool! There’s no way I would give that to my kid! Selfish me would take that for my own room 🙂

WOW; love the pumpkin carriage!
