How do I match the nursery with this bedding theme?
My daughter is 2 1/2 yrs. old and we are expecting another baby girl in June. To save some money and please my husband (if it were up to me I’d buy all new stuff!) I am going to re-use the bedding theme that we had for our daughter. It is in great condition and really is cute so I’m not upset about that, but it is the Tiddliwinks Bear Princess theme from Target, and I’m trying to figure out what to do with our plain white wall in her room. I don’t want to paint the room, but maybe put up wall art and those wall decals that you can remove easily. The bedding is pink, purple, and yellow mainly with teddy bears holding wands, it’s really cute…actually here is the site for the collection. So what do you think as far as other decor for the room?

Congrats!!!! I think that you can do quite a few things to dress up the room without painting the walls.
For starters I envision a canopy made of tulleing/ I would personally go with a pale pink or possibly a pink and green 2 pink panels on the outside and 2 green on the inside. Make a hem across your fabric lengths to allow you to hang the fabric on a regular curtain rod that you can attach directly above the bed. In doing so you are creating a canopy to frame the bed. It will also add more to the princess look. For the fabric pull backs look for wooden cut out shapes of medium sized stars. Add a wooden knob (glued) to the back. Drill a hole through both and attach to the wall with a double threaded screw at a distance of about 2″-3″ away from the top of the crib. You can now drape your canopy back and not worry about it being in your daughters reach. Felt makes for great inexpensive wall decor. Purchase squares in colors that coordinate with the bedding and cut out shapes repeated from the bedding, vary the sizes. You can add dimension to some by stacking them. They can be attached to the wall with double sided tape or with poster putty. Dress up a lamp by adding tulling on a plain shade or some of the felt shapes. Decorative fringe and fancy boas add to the princess look. Hope this helps.
