Any ideas on decorating a little girls room in Red, White and Blue?

Question

We are moving to an amazing house, but since we are renting I am stuck with my daughter having a room painted in country blue, on the ceiling and upper walls and the bottom is in red white and blue plaid. The room has a pretty hideous border, but I am allowed to cover the border with a new one so I'm looking for a cute border and any other ideas to make a room with these colors as feminine and childlike as possible... I'm stuck and out of ideas.... Thanks

just lock her in the closet, she'll be fine.

www.RockYourWall.com has a lot of cool room accessories like PBTeen for way less money. Colored magnetic dry erase tiles, cork tiles and so much more.

Try red dry erase tiles, white dry erase tiles and blue dry erase tiles for a very cool and functional style tile bulletin board!

Try looking at the Pottery Barn Kids website.  They have cute stuff, and if it's too expensive, you can look at their rooms and get ideas.  They have wooden letters painted white spelling the child's name and hung on the wall.  You could get wooden letters at a craft store and paint them white.  Can you paint the ceiling white instead of blue?  I would use white whenever I could in the room.

Other ideas- cute white wooden shelves to hang on the wall, white pom poms glued around the bottom of a lampshade, a red comforter with a nice doll wearing a blue dress sitting on the bed, white wicker baskets (Pottery Barn sells red check liners for them) for storing toys, White curtains with pom pom fringe from Country Curtains website.  You could paint furniture white or red.  A child's red wood chair painted in shiny enamel paint would be cute, or a bookshelf painted red with white wicker baskets. Good Luck!

I think maybe white furniture might be really pushing it. Your best bet is to try to bring in another color into the scheme to make it look less patriotic like America threw up all over it. haha. sorry.

Anyway, Pottery Barn might be on the pricey side so I would definately go with IKEA furniture, if you can stay away from the white. Bring in the other colors through the borders you're putting up or wall decor decals, those are all over these days! They're inexpensive and removable and if you get a shape thats flexible enough you could let your creativity run.

I hope I helped a little!
