A plush, warm and snuggly addition to a fluttering fairy bedroom would be a blanket or throw. Blankets and throws can be used as an extra warming, top layer on a bed to keep a child cozy even in the middle of those cold winter months. Old or plain color bedding can be livened up quickly and inexpensively with the addition of a throw or blanket which features these characters. You can certainly save some money this way by just getting a throw to match the bedroom decor rather than the complete bedding set.
Blankets and throws can be used to breathe new life into other items too. How about using it on top of a child sofa to match it in with the room. We've used them to hang over tables and also as front covers over bookshelves or open face shelving which looks untidy. You can even hang them from a pole to make some quick wall art!
To cover the front of a bookshelf, sew up the blanket to the right size. If it isn't big enough to cover the whole unit then sew it to the middle of a larger piece of fabric first. You then want to stick or sew some large velcro fastening to the top back of this blanket and also stick the other piece of velcro to the top of your bookshelf. You can now easily attach your Tink blanket cover over the entire front of the bookshelf which looks pretty and keeps the bedroom looking super tidy too.

Definitely - not everyone can sew but you can do so much mire if you can with home decor. Thanks for your visit.
I like your creative Idea on purchasing toddler bedding and make your own crib set out of it, that is if your handy with a sewing machine :)
Thank you, Sheila :)
Very pretty bedroom items, kinworm. Good thing even naughty little fairies can change their behavior.
Thank you, Jimmie. My daughter's favorite book is Peter Pan - she loves Tinkerbell, Peter Pan (the boy who never grows up) and the Pirates! She noticed that Tink was not particularly nice in the book (compared with the Tinkerbell movies) and I explained that she's got better as she's got older! So she's been christened Naughty Tink in Peter Pan!
Adorable bedroom theme! A child would dream of flying around London with Peter Pan with a bedroom like this.
You know, Tink's personality has been somewhat reinvented. She was quite mean in the original book and Disney movie. Jealous, vengeful, spiteful. I mean, I like her spunky character from a literary perspective. But I wouldn't want my daughter to emulate her behavior.
