How to use animal prints in a bedroom?

We are redecorating my 9 yr old daughters bedroom. We have just painted her walls a light sage- almost lime green with white trim. She is a real animal lover and wants to us animal print fabrics in her room but I am unsure how to make it work and not overpower the room. Can I us a solid color bedding such as purple and accent with animal prints? I want to give it a jungle/safari look but still be girlish also. I see alot of various prints being mixed and matched in kids rooms these days but I am just unsure how to pull it all together. Thanks!

  1. some good ideas here http://teensthemes.com/safari/wild-safari-bedroom-decorating-ideas.html
  2. i would definitely use them as accents, maybe some throw pillows or a lampshade, a throw rug. dont use too many different colors it will look busy to the eye and she will never fall asleep!
  3. I wouldn't go overboard on the print. For instance, just buy throw pillows, throw blanket, rug, and lamp shade in animal print. Also....you can throw little animal figurines on a shelf...or even stuffed animals. Good Luck...I'm sure it's gonna turn out great either way you do it!
  4. maybe toss pillows because you can sew a cover for them later if you get tired of the look
  5. Well, fi you paint the room in one tone, you could drow like a path all around the room, like in the middle of the walls. I cant really explain by this. Profecional painter and dec.
  6. You can accessorize with a zebra or tiger print rug and one of these prints: http://www.posterunlimited.com/apgf100517.html http://www.posterunlimited.com/adlbr-a058.html http://www.posterunlimited.com/apg136-22287.html http://www.posterunlimited.com/adlbr-a059.html http://www.posterunlimited.com/eur1500-1361.html You can turn the print into a canvas and add richness to the room. Good Luck!
