Light Color Palette

Color palette is fairly important in having a bedroom makeover. One of the key colors to use when making a princess-type is having a lot of light shades and pastel colors. Of course the most popular choice you can always go with is pink, which is practically the most obvious choice as well. But if you want to stray from the traditional option, going with pastel colors like light blue and creamy hues can do you no wrong.

Whimsical Bed

Of course, there are certain elements that need to be incorporated into the bedroom and the bed (which is the main focal point of the room) is no different. Having a regal touch applied to the bed crown should be one of the main features applied to the bed’s headboard. Also, adding some curtains to surround the bed also gives it a royal setting. One good idea to add on to the bed frames, if you are having a Rapunzel themed bedroom design, is artificial vines that wraps all around the wooden structure.

Tutu Curtains

It’s actually very easy to create tutu curtains for the windows which is a great addition to create that girly and princess look. It is simple and yet a very effective addition to your princess theme. With that flowy chiffon texture to place in your windows, it also gives a lighter feel to the room which can add to the comfortability of the bedroom.

Red or Pink Carpets

You can add carpets to the bedroom floor and it doesn’t have to cover all the floor space since maintenance and carpet cleaning can be a bit time consuming. Although one neat trick on carpet cleaning in Gold Coast is to soak those carpets in vinegar and water mixture while adding lemon juice to that can help remove all allergens and stains. Having a red or even pink carpets lined up from the door to the bed is one way in making your kid feel like she is a princess and it also gives the room a regal aura to it.

Wall Paintings

The perfect wall art to accompany the bedroom for a princess theme is by having a wall feature! One wall can be good enough to dedicate your princess decorations or even a wall mural like Rapunzel did in Tangled. You can also consider painting a castle or kingdom like a landscape mural art, or maybe even a bricked wall painting to make it similar to the interior of Rapunzel’s tower.
