The young girl who lives here loves pink and yellow, but her mother didn't want an overly bright treatment her daughter would tire of quickly.

In this comfortable room, the bed becomes a lovely focal point with a graceful
swag suggesting a canopy. Designer: Alan Nugent, INTERIORS by Decorating Den.

The girl's existing furniture, simple whitewashed pine with a French country feeling, worked nicely in the space. A simple swagged fabric treatment makes the bed a focal point; a few special vintage pieces, such as the faux bamboo end table and the circus rocking horse, enhance the nostalgic ambience.
Delicate trompe l'oeil fairies, leaves and vines embellish the walls but with a subtle touch. This is a space she'll cherish, now and through the years.
If you do favor bolder colors, the decorating idea on the next page demonstrates how to use them gracefully.
