We decided to use the desk as sort of a vanity keeping the Victorian theme in mind.
We purchased a wonderful table top dragonfly mirror that looked updated with
a country charm, and put a wonderful doll lamp of a very stylish Victorian lady
at the corner of the desk.
Of course, if you don't have any stored furniture you may want to check your
local flea markets or garage sales to redo a wonderful old piece.
Sometimes you may even want to visit the unpainted furniture stores which
seem to have popped up everywhere.
Another area in the room to think about is the walls.
We wanted to keep them white but, we added an antique doll border which was
available at the local retail store. Also, we made interesting pictures by taking
antique reproduction frames and a favorite greeting card (repro print) and just
cut it out....it looks great for very little money.
Curtains are a major area of a room to look at. We went with ecru lace curtains
keeping the Victorian flavor, but we needed a little color so we put a Victorian
style teddy bear in center of the curtains for a unique accent.
We also found a Victorian style child's seat with storage to keep in the same flavor.
We hope this will give you a few unique ideas for your little girl's bedroom, and
make your ancestors proud we are still keeping the Victorian flavor alive.
