Young Girl's Room

12 years ago

My daughter has decided she no longer likes pink, which is completely fine, but she picked this orange and pink comforter as her favorite.

For her 5th birthday I want to surprise her by having her wake up in her redone room. What color should I paint her headboard and dresser that is not pink?

I am stumped and her birthday is early Dec.

Thank for your help!

If you browse photos and enter orange pink under the category of bedrooms you will come across a lot of ideas. My advice is to not overwhelm the entire room with orange and pink so balance it out with white. But do extend the orange and pink elements throughout the room., happy birthday to your daughter.

Could you post pictures of her room? It would be helpful to see wall colour, style of headboard and dresser. Thanks

I'd do a white headboard so the blanket color will pop and you can change it up later. You could do lots of things with the dresser but a pic would help

Go wild and repeat the colors of the bedspread and paint them orange with pink polka dots. Stripes would go better with the comforter but would be a pain to paint.

Go with white. I think kids can get over stimulated with really bold, bright colors. Plus white goes with everything

White is fresh and won't fight with the comforter : )

I agree that white would be the best choice for the headboard and dresser. Perhaps on the dresser you could paint the handles orange just to tie in her color scheme. I saw these letters on etsy and just wanted to show you that you can add your daughters name to her wall with these letter decals. The letters are orange and the butterflies are pink.

White. Or greige. Or a 'whiter version' of the pink or orange.
Or very pale sage. Guess it depends on the rest of the room.

Personally, I'd go for a white room with some wood and sand color (floor, dresser) and pick a fun fabric in similar colors for pillows and curtains. Something like the first pictures.

Hello, do you want to repaint only the headboard and dresser or the walls too? I am not sure I understood. I would definitely leave the headboard and dresser white. You could add fun dresser knobs like those but don't do too much. Good luck! It sounds like a lot of fun!
