DINOSAUR BEDDING - NOT JUST FOR BOYS!


GO HERE FOR MORE!




Let's take a trip back in time to prehistoric days when beasts bigger than some modern highrise apartments roamed the jungles. Most kids think that circus elephants are huge and they are correct, but how do we go about introducing them to be ancestors of these pachyderms? One way to educate them and have fun doing it would be to decorate their bedrooms in stylish dinosaur bedding sets reminiscent of pictures right now of Jurassic Park!

Tweens and preteens will be interested in the history and the adventure associated with the history, the wonder and charm of dinosaurs on their sheet sets as well as their walls and comforters. If you already have a jungle mural left over from the toddler bedroom theme, remove the contemporary animals that you might find in the zoo from the mix and substitute a Brontosaurus, Tyrannosaurus and others on their bedroom walls.
You don't have to have an predominantly emerald green color scheme to use prehistoric lizards and other creatures from the caveman (or cave girls) in your decor. There are dinosaur sheet sets and decorative accessories in contemporary colors of blue, red and maybe even some feminine styles in pink! Children need to know more about cave dwelling and the stoneage than what they learn from the Flintstones cartoons and realistic dinosaur pictures on the bedroom walls may be the best converstation starters!

Fairy bedding sets are for the little girl that's not quite ready to let go of their teddy bears, baby dolls and stories of fairy tale princesses. For the young girl at the juncture between the preteen or tween years and the more sophisticated tastes of the teenage years, delicate beauty can sometimes suffice.

A responsible mom may not have been able to use her decorating ideas for her girl's bedroom earlier in the game with expensive or dainty accessories. It would be very disappointing to buy high end comforters, bedding or hand-painted furniture only to find them covered in finger paint or globs of play-doh.


However, the day may come when the sticky toys of children's games have been tucked away. This may be the best time for decorating with those silky fabrics and furniture with fine finishes before her girl decides she wants a style of bedroom decor that sets most parents' nerves on edge.

Fill the tween years with fairy bedding sets and decorating ideas for fairy wings and fluttering butterflies quickly before she reaches for the dark side of teen bedroom decor. Ornate iron beds with headboards painted with fantasy fairy princesses on swings combined with light and airy fairy bedding sets in pastels will delight mother and daughter.

Keep the colors of purple, pink and white with highlights of sparkling gold with fairy comforters and quilts made with preteens in mind. Or if you like hot pink more than pretty pastel colors, Laura Ashley has a lovely designer bedding collection for teen girls with touches of hot sugarplum pink as well as turquoise blue that will provide opportunities to accessorize and decorate your flower fairies bedroom with unusual and exciting color combinations.
