If your little girl is growing up, and her room hasn’t kept pace, then it’s probably time to give her room a makeover.  The first step when you start decorating a girl’s room is to sit down with her, and talk about her preferences for her bedroom. It helps if you sit down with your daughter, and talk about her ideas for her special place.

Pink is always in when it comes to your little princess’ room, but there’s no harm in going wild with retro prints and animal pints, depending on your teenager’s taste.  Lava lamps and retro wall paper accent the retro seventies’ room, while animal print bedding, and zebra print rugs and throws bring the wild right into your home.

Contrary to what you think, not all girls love a room that has overdosed on frills and lace.  There’s nothing worse for the school soccer star to come home, and find a room that looks like it’s stepped out of a Barbie commercial. Sexist colors are quite passé actually, and nowadays girls love camouflage accents including jungle print and even camouflage bedding. 

As the center of the room, the bed offers a variety of possibilities for you to celebrate your little girl’s personality.  A budding chef? Get food and cutlery inspired bed covers.  A champion equestrian in the making?  Use horse bedding to help her keep her goals in mind.
