So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Decorating A Princess Bedroom

By Shirley Foster

If your little girl longs to be a princess you can make it happen by decorating her bedroom, a room of her own. Movies display the beautiful princess like Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, Sleeping Beauty, and of course Snow White. You can create a princess room with matching furnishings. With today's modern decor you can easily create a replica of her favorite scene or background.

First decide what colors you will be choosing. Remember that most girls like the pink and white but if she is a princess she needs royal colors. Mix in some deep blue or mauves in her colors. White should always be used as a contrast color so the room will seem brighter than it is.

Now you are ready to decorate her bed. Try using a canopy bed in her room covered in satin covers like pink or lilac. White or gold cushions should be placed on the bed. You may want to use vevet red cushions too. Buy some extra material to keep on hand or to use in another area in her room.

Windows should have silky curtains that are tied back with lace tie backs. Lace can also be used in other areas all over her room.

If you are artistic, then have white furniture in the room, such as, a dressing table for your little Princess and paint the edges with gold paint. Gold is a royal color that can help to make it all real for that special little Princess.

When decorating the floor you want to purchase an area rug that displays princess colors. If you already have a royal color rug down on the floor you can add the area rug on top of the rug. Make sure she has a rug beside of her bed so she has something warm to put her feet on in the mornings.

Also add a bookcase in her room as well as a rocking chair and a small table. You can pick all of these up at a toy shop. Purple is a royal color so you may want to look for purple shades to help complete the decor. Don't forget a cabinet beside of her bed with a glass slipper lamp sitting on top. You can pick these up at any toy shop.

To finish her dressing table you can add hearts, a gold comb and brush set, and a crown. Her princess stool should match her dresser. The fancier you can make her room look the better she will feel.
