Be imaginative! It's easy to combine your dragonfly nursery theme and decor ideas with some elements included in perhaps the ladybug nursery theme, the fantasy garden nursery theme and maybe even the fairy themed room! Display beautiful dragonfly pictures on the nursery wall and grab one of the new dragonfly and butterflies or ladybugs crib bedding sets and decorate to your heart's content!
I have seen some truly elegant baby bedding fabrics printed with dragonflies and ladybugs. The combination of these popular nursery motifs make the transformation of your dragonfly nursery theme to so many other themed rooms very simple! This is good news for the do it yourself decorator!
The most basic, budget priced cribsets from companies such as Lambs and Ivy present a modern, charming look compatible with your dragonfly nursery theme and others. Combining features such as patchwork and posh fabrics with a luxurious feel make shopping for baby bedding sets a tactile and visual experience!
The invention of cheap production methods allow bold red velours and chenilles to be machine washable and easy to care for. Mix and match these with crisp black gingham that will highlight the graceful curves of the dragonflies and flowers.
What once was only available to high income families, is now for all babies! Your baby can enjoy the same soft, finely woven fabrics in your dragonfly nursery theme that celebrity moms buy for their babies. The construction and feel of many discount store bedding sets could compare to fabrics in items sold at Saks Fifth Avenue! There are baby quilts and comforters in your price range with the fine embroidery, quality and textured fabrics worthy of a prince or princess!
As a creative background, use a painted wall mural. If you are handy with a brush, paint some rocks, fountains and other lighting surfaces for your dragonflies and friends to light, take a short nap and rest their silky wings.
If you want a truly versatile wall painting that will be convertible to other themed rooms, include a sandy beach at the edge of your tropical forest scene. Just the slightest hint of sandy beaches in your scenery will allow the conversion to other classic themes such as:
Beach Themes
Island Themes
Tropical Themes
Mermaid Themes
with the exchange of the baby's crib bedding set, the decorative drawer pulls and nursery rug! What a cheap and easy way to completely update your baby's room!
Murals don't have to be completely hand-painted. You can paint the larger plants and trees using a projector or free stencils available online, then get some nursery theme wallies, stickers or decals for the finer details!
Throw in a garden fairy or two and you have populated your baby's nursery decor with all manner of whimsical forest folk!
For a baby girls nursery, I would use some shimmer or glitter paint for the dragonflies and fairies gossamer wings. Lacy curtains, perhaps hand crocheted by a loving grandmother, at the windows add a delicate touch.
For a baby boys nursery some ideas can feature some frogs in your nursery artwork or dragonfly pictures. Paint some little boys with male attire (think Robin Hood or Peter Pan type clothing) that appear to be constructed of leaves and bark. They can be laced together with leafy vines of the forest. This would appear more masculine than the more feminine flower petals of a feminine fairy's dress skirt.
