How do I design my bedroom with an Alice in Wonderland theme?

I will be getting a new bedroom in a few months and it is about medium size and I would like the decorating theme to be Alice in Wonderland. The Disneys movie and the scene where alice is in the Golden Afternoon Garden. You know, with the big flowers and mushrooms etc... I have a loft bed and they might build one of those ebcesses windowd where it goes out and theres a window seat. I also have a dresser that is raw wood so I can paint it or stain it. My bed is a light pine wood but I cannot stain or paint it.... sooo.... any ideas to decorate my room? Any I can start now before my room is built?

Hope these ideas help you a little. Have fun creating your fantasy escape.
Reply:Get yourself a projector. Project images from the movie scene you are interested in right onto the wall. Get bedding colors right from the picture you chose OR go for a bright floral patterned spread. Curtains the same.





I would write across the room as a border the words to the Golden Afternoon song.





Also, I saw a really cute idea at the Christmas Tree shop of a little girl cutout with a mirror as the head. Why not paint a big Alice near your bureau and put a mirror as her face. Remember though that Alice was tiny for this scene so the flowers and mushrooms have to be HUGE in comparison to your Alice.





Good luck. I hope this helps a little.
Reply:paint the ceiling and upper part of the walls sky blue, and sponge clouds on the ceiling in white. then paint the lower part of the walls green, you could go with a green carpet too. then begin drawing in and painting bright colored flowers on the walls. like the pictures in your picture books. you can use the art bottled acrylics you find in the craft dept at walmart or michaels or hobby lobby. if you need any more help with the flowers let me know, i did a mural all the way around my grand daughters bedroom it included a floor to ceiling tree, flowers, a witches cottage, trees , flowers, shrubs fairies in the tree along with birds and butterflies and dragonflies, a castle on top of a rocky mountain and a wizard and dragon, a pirate ship in a cove and a mermaid on a rock, then i did sunken ships and greek like arcitecture and a sea horse that was swimming through all of that, and a moon and stars on the next section at the top and a cat under the window with a mouse and a grandfather clock went up the corner of the wall next to the window. shes two now and i started before she was born. she lives in the middle of a story book really. she points to what she wants to hear a story about and we have to make one up. oh and there is a frog prince by a little pond too. ribbitt, you can email me here if you like.
