Except it is silver and more pretty


Any ideas?

We were thinking about taking pictures of ballerina things and flowers. Putting our dolls on a self(it is like American girl dolls and old fashion porcelien it don't think i spelled that right) We also were going to find a wooden trunk for our toys and maybe sketch flowers on a dresser.

Answer 1

When you make the beds, fold the top of the sheet over the top of the comforter to add a band of color to the room.

Check out a thrift store for a lacy doily or dresser scarf. I found a lovely table runner in a Dollar store, and they have all kinds of ceramic figurines you can decorate with.

Answer 2

Victorian style was often cluttered. Since you share a room I advise keeping decoration to a minimum. Don't put breakable ornaments on every surface; choose a single location for collectables. Pretty pictures on the walls would add much style without taking up usable space. You can buy greeting cards with classic Victorian style and place them in small frames which are easily affordable. Arrange different shaped frames in the same area for a montage.

Answer 3

1] paint the walls the pink or green of the comforter
2] white lace curtains [ pink rosebud tiebacks? ]
3] white lace doilies, runners, or place mats as dresser scarves, night table covers, etc.- try sales and secondhand stores
4] pink rosebud wreath or swag for wall - easy to make with a eucalyptus or grapevine wreath/swag and silk flowers
5] scour your home for any vintage angels, flowers for paintings, figures, ornaments
