Children’s minds are full of fairytales, imaginary friends and storybook endings. But their time as adventurers is fleeting. Today they see the world through rose-tinted glasses, but one day will be tainted by the harshness of reality. While their creativity can still transform a tree into a fortress, a figment into a fire-breathing dragon, bring the fairytale home. A stimulating bedroom for a young child can promote happiness, imagination, and intelligence as she grows. And at www.artisticsensations.com, you’ll find everything you need to make her dreams come to life.

Once Upon a Princess Bedroom

Themed bedrooms can seem daunting. No one wants to spend the money or time scouring their city to find castle curtains that match the new bejeweled bedspread or color-coordinating the lamp to the rug to the desk to the..you get the idea. That’s why it’s handy to have a one-stop-shop for all your themed bedroom needs, and if that shop is a virtual one, that’s a fairytale ending in it of itself. Even if you don’t buy everything from Artistic Sensations for your child’s dream room, we can certainly help you come up with some ideas to get started.

Start with the bed- The bed is the focal point of your little princess’s room, ergo the name bedroom. The theme should start here and build out. Once you purchase the bedspread your work will also immediately become easier, your room’s color palette will be decided upon. For instance, if you chose the Castle Princess Bedding Collection, you should remain focused on pink, purple, white and slight variations therein. But if you chose the Pea Princess Bedding, your color choices are muted, yet more varied.

Don’t explode- As frustrating as a themed room might seem, this tip doesn’t refer to your sanity. It simply means not to get mesmerized by the magic spell cast on parents by themes. Don’t go overboard! It is probably possible to match every furniture item in the room to your theme: from Regal Crown Canvas Art, to Castle Princess Crown Pillows, to Glitter Crowns Bedding– but there is such thing as too much of a good theme. In short, too much royal treatment and your room can start to look gaudy. Instead, pick out a few startling pieces for the room to awe guests and delight your daughter. For instance the Princess Canopy Wall Mural immediately transforms a bedroom into a castle, while a Pea Princess Flowers Pillow can simply add to the ambiance without stealing the scene.

Accessorize- Although the focal point of the room, the bed, is the most important, don’t forget to sweat the small stuff! Accessorizing your princess’s palace can be the best part, and the subtle touches are what will turn a normal bedroom into a majestic castle. Try spelling out her name in Princess Royal Letter Banners on that too-barren left wall, placing the regal Child’s Cheval Mirror in a lonesome corner for added dress-up fun, or encouraging her to read by arranging her storybooks on a Time to Read Revolving Castle Bookcase.

Indeed, our whimsical collections at Artistic Sensations can whisk your little girl away into a dreamland full of beautiful jewels, handsome princes, and towering castles. And the hard work is always worth it when you see her little face light up as her room is transformed into a storybook fit for a queen. Dreams really can come true!

Remember—boys can get in on the fun too. Check out the red and blue colored Castle Low Loft Bed with Slide and Tent for your little prince by Matrix or look into other bedrooms for boys like the pirate or jungle themes, all found at our website: www.artisticsensations.com.
