My daughter Anabel had outgrown the room decor she had and wanted a change from
the fairies and lilac theme she had in her bedroom. She wanted room decor that
was more grown up, trendy and stylish. After deciding she would like
her bedroom in a zebra print theme, I wanted to share with you some of the details
on decisions and planning that went into the room and also some photos
of how the room turned out in the end.
Anabel in her newly styled bedroom
After deciding on a theme of zebra print, we needed to add a colour to the
black and white to soften the look and add a contrast. We needed a
nice vibrant colour and after considering some colours Anabel decided on
lime green. We needed to get the balance right too, this is really important
when styling a room. I ordered some zebra print fabric to go behind the glass
doors in the wardrobes, to balance this out we would go for lime green curtains.
Handmade and hand painted wall decor which matches the theme
We would need some trendy wall art which would bring a designer look to
the room and Anabel knew just the person to create this!
So, I decided that a set of three canvases would look great on the wall as you
walk in and these pictures would be a combination of zebra print and lime green
with my wonderful eye-catching 3d flowers.
Handmade cushions finish off the bed
Before we had found a headboard
Now we have a headboard it
really finishes off the bed nicely
Lime green headboard completes the bed
On her bed, Anabel has a zebra print duvet cover and lime green throw. Handmade cushions from Craft on Canvas style the bed and add texture. A headboard would finish the bed off beautifully but we are still looking and deciding on this but will possibly get our local upholsterer to custom made one for us. This may sound expensive but actually can work out the same as buying a quality headboard.
We had been looking around for a desk that would fit in with the fitted wardrobes and eventually found one at Ikea, it looks great but most importantly, it is practical and will hopefully encourage her to do her homework!
I added these over the door hooks and they are great for bags, dressing gown etc. There are lots of different styles in various colours so it’s easy to find one that will fit in well with any room decor.
Some extra accessories on shelves would complete the look.
Anabel is so excited with the look of her room and proud that she has played a part
in designing the room.
