Make Your Childhood Dreams Come True: How To Create a Fairytale Home

Who said we have to let our childhood dreams die? Now that you have the power to make your own decisions as an adult, you may feel like you're overwhelmed with the different decorating options on the market. If you want to turn your home into the fairytale house of your dreams, follow these simple tips.

Choose fantastical paints

Sure, you can spice up any white wall with whimsical paintings, but a simple change in the color of your home can create an entrancing ambiance. Choose fun colors like mint green and lilac purple to bring the essence of nature indoors, with baby soft hues to give your home a light and airy feel.

Purchase a wooden armoire

Your bedroom is the most important room in your home: this is where you'll be spending the majority of your time and you deserve a space that reflects your personality. Add a fantastical flair to your bedroom with simple furniture choices and decorating options.

The best thing you can do to make your room feel luxurious is include a wooden armoire. This is great if you don't have a closet or simply want more storage for your clothing. The wooden armoire can be painted to match the aesthetic of the room. Opening the wide wooden doors of a rustic armoire wardrobe will make you feel like you entered a Victorian novel.

One word: books

The best part about books is that they serve two purposes: not only are they great forms of entertainment and knowledge, they also double as a beautiful decoration for any home. Put your favorite books on display using a beautiful bookcase. Buy multiple bookshelves to showcase your love for reading in multiple rooms of your home. It will give it a cozy, inviting feeling for anyone that enters your home.

The outside matters, too

If you have a lawn to play with, use it: plant your favorite flowers and try placing fairy doors around your garden for a fun, fanciful feeling. Consider purchasing outdoor log furniture to host cozy outdoor barbecues and picnics.

Lights, lights, lights

Decorating on a budget? Think about purchasing some white Christmas lights to hang around your bookshelves and headboard. This simple addition offers a cool yet cozy atmosphere.

Looking to spend a little more? Consider buying a lodge chandelier to really impress your royal subjects.
