Decorating your daughter’s room can be challenging and rewarding all at the same time. To create a room, full of color and décor, consider purchasing items of pink, yellow, and orange which bring the room a sense of joy, fun and excitement. When looking for cost efficient bedroom decorating products, consider the following purchase items to keep your budget under $300:

* Curtains: Windows are generally considered a primary decorating focal point of a bedroom as they provide a view of the world beyond. When selecting curtains for your daughter’s bedroom, we recommend “No Boundaries Window Curtain, Mulitcolored” panels, available at www.walmart.com. Beautifully colored in yellow, pink and orange stripes, the bedroom curtains are affordable, at approximately $15.00 each, and provide the basis for decorating the window focal point. Total cost for four panels: Approx. $60.00

* Window Décor: In addition to curtains, we recommend purchasing window décor such as tie backs and greenery to drape around the curtain rods. Tie backs and décor are also available at www.walmart.com and generally run $1.50 to $8.50 per item. Decorate with greenery, window charms such as butterflies and tie backs. Total for window décor: Approx. $30.00

* Mirror: Mirrors provide a bedroom with spacial enhancement. Also at www.walmart.com, we recommend purchasing two “Hanging Wall Mirror”, each at a price of approximately $27.99. However, instead of hanging each mirror against the bedroom wall, consider purchasing one yard of pink silk or satin. Cut the yard in half, twist into a long rope and attach to the back of the mirror and then hang the mirror, using the material as “string” to the nail on the wall or suspended from your daughter's bedroom ceiling.   This added feature brings interest and color to the decorative mirrors. Total for mirrors and material: Approx. $62.00
