Home Decor and Interiors: child

<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">There is something magical about a little girl's room; </span></div><div style="text-align: center;">a feeling of endless possibilities and make believe. Creating a room for a little girl is a charming experience. In this room, I tried to keep a light hand - the soft lavender walls, white furniture, sheer curtains and soft draping over the bed. I didn't want it to be too childish; Sarah is a sophisticated child in an "I believe in Fairies" sort of way. On the other hand I didn't want to lose the 'wide eyed little girl' either. </div><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-x-bdxAdKY-VQuJPtHXfiuZKWIlFJiftjLMPEhgcaA5JzDPYHG7yOg3kS1LROuP6pSdgwdpMJ7SY34ERQfLol2JcPT2z31z_LNigiStluSABiNeYFDdwyaUyg4YUWw82uykGOrSqSeH4/s1600-h/file_253627.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" height="425" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5354526362746499234" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-x-bdxAdKY-VQuJPtHXfiuZKWIlFJiftjLMPEhgcaA5JzDPYHG7yOg3kS1LROuP6pSdgwdpMJ7SY34ERQfLol2JcPT2z31z_LNigiStluSABiNeYFDdwyaUyg4YUWw82uykGOrSqSeH4/s640/file_253627.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;" width="640" /></a></div><div>We accomplished this by the elegant sheer curtains, dramatically draped and topped with gingham checked valances; with a crystal chandelier hung next to big oversized stuffed animals and also with a quiet color palette of all lavender, purple and light pink hues - soothing to the eye but not at all boring. </div><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrXWczM2V0exC09IF0d5RYM3K7OK1duZOAzQx_rANyuY6YfV41b-Kx5CiJT8SAQDDJZ45-ydUHcyVnNwqhB1ofW1sX8JxnZ72URH495_NXQsq8R-BSv-mnJmDrBotSu0jUFY2gbfPfu7k/s1600-h/IMG_0834.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" height="486" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5354526118446389298" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrXWczM2V0exC09IF0d5RYM3K7OK1duZOAzQx_rANyuY6YfV41b-Kx5CiJT8SAQDDJZ45-ydUHcyVnNwqhB1ofW1sX8JxnZ72URH495_NXQsq8R-BSv-mnJmDrBotSu0jUFY2gbfPfu7k/s640/IMG_0834.JPG" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;" width="640" /></a></div><div>We added additional gingham valances over the mirrored closet doors for the perfect finishing touch. </div><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_g64oegJD6ghbZhpx25sqhlq0edT7PgTQ-xr75hXov772tHplbOGrbaZU3CzPVyMGc1d_ynOfzAGh9MSLLMebq5Dhf13F6nm6QqBjckOMztd_1nHX0BiOsH3GyLIIa3Nkm6JQOjmOTYI/s1600-h/IMG_0835.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" height="640" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5354526112068697954" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_g64oegJD6ghbZhpx25sqhlq0edT7PgTQ-xr75hXov772tHplbOGrbaZU3CzPVyMGc1d_ynOfzAGh9MSLLMebq5Dhf13F6nm6QqBjckOMztd_1nHX0BiOsH3GyLIIa3Nkm6JQOjmOTYI/s640/IMG_0835.JPG" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;" width="480" /></a></div><div>And the perfect framed view of the room. The artwork over the bed is by Sarah. Displaying children's art encourages them in their creativity and builds great self esteem.
