This room is so calm. The colors make room for the girl to express herself and have other things in her room besides just the typical pink found in all girls rooms. This room can also grow from toddler all the way to teen because it isn't "themed" or too typical. I love the chair that allows the child to sit and read or watch television. I wish the person who posted these designer ideas would have shared a picture of the whole room because I bet it is adorable. If I can find the photos, I will post (I promise!)
This was the room that my husband chose when we were looking for my top five. When we were expecting Ace and were told in the early months that he looked like a girl, we started trying to find rooms that would fit both of our tastes. DJ's biggest complaint was that everything was so PINK, that there was no added color. What if your little girl didn't like pink? or even started not liking it because her room was so full of it? So we decided to try to build a room where pink didn't take over the world or the space. Every little girl dreams of a princess room, but every dream looks different. The pattern and dimension on this wall makes it look girly, but the blue-teal makes it easy for her to have a room that fits her...and the lime green is my favorite color in the whole room! It adds just enough to make this room beautiful and easy to grow with her as she ages :)
Here comes the girly girl in me that absolutely LOVES this room... the pink is subtle, the crown on the canopy says it all, and the white bed with all the small details just speaks volumes. I could see my future daugher sleeping in something like this with just a little more pink... and remember ladies, SMALL details make a BIG impression!
I chose this room for how functional it looks. I bet you didn't notice by first glance all the little spaces that added storage. There are bins on every side of this bed (purchased on www.ikea.com ) I love the stool at the end of the bed and it gives me the assumption that this room is for a small girl which tickles me because she truly will get to use this room until she's a teenager who decides all black suits her better! ha!! Yellow is also such a girly, flirty color and adds some dimension to a space. The wall to wall bookshelves are perfect because all the breakables can be seen and put away and she can display anything she wants - if she likes movies, it's perfect for DVDS, or books if she likes to read, or barbies if she likes to collect - then mom can come in and put them all back in their place easily... doesn't that sound lovely, moms?
And last, but not least, this is the only theme room I could find that I even liked at all. I hate themes! When I first had Blaze, his room was FULL of Winnie The Pooh! I thought it was so cute and then after nights sitting there staring at the walls with a screaming baby, I realized that themes get really old, really quick. This ladybug room, however, is far from corny. I personally think it's adorable, but probably won't be appreciated once the girl hits pre-teen. I posted this room of all the themes I had it narrowed down to for my close friend, Jessica Glanton. She is pregnant with her third child, a little girl named Mia ... but they call her Mia Bug and her room is all ladybugs. I thought she would absolutely love this room! I love all the green and other neutrals and for a woman who may be having a girl and not wanting alot of pink, ladybugs or some type of animal print would be a good fit.
