Princess Castle Nursery Theme
by Stephanie N
(Barrie, Ontario, Canada)
The idea for my baby girl's princess castle nursery theme came about before my daughter was born when I impulsively bought this wallpaper with a castles and clouds pattern. I used it in her room and matched the upper and lower paint colors to the paint shades that were in the wallpaper's border. 
A modern princess nursery with illustrated castle wallpaper, mauve canopy drapes, and a light pickled wood crib.
The top portion of my baby girl's nursery wall was a beautiful shade of mauve and the bottom was painted a soft shade of yellow. All of the nursery accessories were either white, mauve, or yellow to match the wallpaper.
For even more ideas on creating a dreamy royal space, you can see my page on princess bed designs that pair beautifully with a castle-themed nursery.
As I was designing my daughter's princess castle nursery theme I realized that this was the first time I actively set out to match everything in a decorating project with the colors found in the wallpaper or border as many professional decorators recommend and it worked beautifully!
