Tips Butterfly Decorations Girl's Room

So is there a special little girl whose bedroom you want to DIY into a Butterfly Haven?  You have come to the right place!

The hardest part is over.  You've picked a theme!  Now it's time to get to work.

First pick a wall color.  I'm really loving Sherman Williams Blue Sky (SW 0063).  It's light and airy and makes me think of a that first warm spring day.  I can almost smell flowers!  Find it here!

Now it's time for a craft or two.  Shadow boxes make an easy and interesting piece of wall art, but before you get out your net and head to the local park, try your local craft store first.  AC Moore, Michaels, Hobby Lobby and other stores have a lot of three dimension butterflies that can be artfully placed in shadowboxes.  Check out this example from www.midwestliving.com.

A cheap and easy project is to make your own flock of paper butterflies.  My Decoupaged Life has a great tutorial outlining how to so this.  All you need is cardstock, the free template, good scissors and adhesive to attach them to the wall.  The result is nothing less than inspiring.  Get the easy step by step directions here.

A third way to make your butterfly room really pop is to include your little lady in the art design.  Make some butterfly canvas prints using those little feet as the wings.  Use whatever colors compliment your room choice.  Your tiny wonder will love seeing her masterpiece on her wall!
