Princess bedroom ideas

6 years ago
last modified: 6 years ago

I need some suggestions for furniture for granddaughters bedroom. The top left is my inspiration pic. The checked items I have already purchased. I did buy two of the twin beds and I’d like just one nightstand between them and 1 dresser. Dark wood floors, blush pink walls, 14’ ceilings. The beds are bright white but I think I’d like more gold tone furniture. I don’t want a matching dresser and nightstand but would rather have coordinating ones. The beds are super sturdy so they will take her thru teenage years so I don’t want a children’s dresser and nightstand.

    How old is she. I did my grand daughters room in princess style when she was 3 by the time she was 5 she no longer liked princess . I would take it easy with a themed space keep most things very easily changed for the long term . I also find the kids seem to like a bigger bed when they get older and their favorite color changes by the year so I keep walls really neutral and use the color of the year for bedding and accents. I also think they need to have input into their own space . In your case I would use the simple dresser and night table not the really ornate french style stuff, remember she could love goth next year it really is best to keep it simple the head piece over the bed easy to change so that and some bedding could be princess for now.

    I was just thinking the same as Patricia. The room will feel formal with your choices. Girls like princess until about 5 and then they prefer something more cool. If you use canopy for now it should be enough for a princess feel and once removed, the room can be enjoyed and adjusted slightly for years to come. I would probably just stick to white furniture that is not too large as she won’t need and save the space for a wicker chest for toys, a doll house and small table/chairs as you also want a room that functions well and room below for instance will still feel like a special and magical place Not sure if her age so you could skip accessories I mentioned if not appropriate

    Well, she’s five and her favorite color is pink! So right now I’m doing blush pink. it’s easy enough to change wall colors and bedding later on. I can even change out colors of the crystals on the chandelier🤗. The room is really big so I feel it needs large pieces of furniture. She needs a desk too.

    Gosh 5 is so young not to like princess. Luckily my 5 1/2 yr old granddaughter loves the whole princess decor and I have a feeling she will for a while. She even wants me to build her a treehouse with pink curtains. If she decides to go goth her room at grandmas house will remain elegant and beautiful. I might let her have one black pillow. : )

    Some more ideas

    @Maureen yes I love that first dresser. It looks like the one on my board from Auhaus. And that’s a great desk too. Actually it looks like a console table they’re using as a desk. Cool idea!

    Update! Finally almost finished with granddaughters bedroom. I bought the dresser from home depot and it’s really good quality. I used gold rub n buff on the raised detail and changed the knobs. The drapes are DIY being I I didn’t want to spend $$$ for custom. I ordered EVERYTHING on Amazon! Added trim to both the velvet drapes and the sheers . Custom cut antique gold rods reinforced with extra brackets. I told my handyman make sure you hit a few studs cuz drapes are 12’ high, heavy and lined. I just bought white sheers and want to change the beige ones to brighten the room up a little. I’m not thrilled with her desk. It was color of the wood on the chair but I painted it white and changed the knobs but I’m still not digging it. I’m thinking more of a French style desk with curved legs.
    When my granddaughter saw her room for the first time she whispered in my ear, “can I have a sleepover?”

    Your awesome!!!! IT LOOKS GREAT!
    Can you slide the rug under the beds instead of where it is? And flip it the other way.

    @HU actually I’m thinking of getting a bigger rug because I do like it better when partially under the bed too. This rug is a 7’ square but it looks rectangular in pic because Of angle I used. I’m thinking a 8 x 10.
