The colorful nature of the dragonfly makes them ideal for bedroom decor theme.
Dragonflies are colorful winged insects often seen buzzing above a lake on a summer's day. The colorful, almost majestic quality of these insects makes them ideal for decorating any room in your house. Whether you're decorating your child's room because they enjoy watching the cartoon dragonfly on Nickelodeon's Miss Spyder series or decorating another room in your house because you appreciate the beauty of these insects, creating a dragonfly themed room is easy and offers a range of possibilities. Does this Spark an idea?
Walls and Trim
Dragonfly wall stencils are a great way to create a dragonfly themed room. Use stencils to cover the walls with dragonflies in a multitude of colors. Use glow-in-the-dark paint for a child's bedroom or realistic dragonflies for a living room or kitchen. Accent the walls with a dragonfly border. Remove plain light switch covers and replace them with dragonfly covers. These three changes alone provide a strong foundation for your theme.
Bedding and Accessories
Dragonfly bedding, particularly pillows in the shape of dragonflies, enhance the designs painted on the walls. Replace plain lamp shades with lamp shades featuring pictures of real or cartoon dragonflies. For a child's room, a toy box with stencil dragonflies as the walls adds something to the aesthetics of the room and provides functionality. Dragonfly area rugs also enhance the theme. In the living room, try a wrought iron votive candle holder shaped like a dragonfly or a wrought iron candelabra.
Dragonfly Collectibles
Shelves on the wall provide the perfect place for dragonfly collectibles. Ideal objects for the shelves include miniature dragonflies made of glass or ceramic, dragonfly water globes, a model of a dragonfly or even miniature stuffed dragonflies. Stuffed dragonflies can be used in a child's room. Dragonfly collectibles work well in a living room, den or even the bathroom. In a bathroom, additional decor elements might include dragonfly toothbrush and soap holders, wash cloths and towels.
Wall Decor
Plaster the walls with dragonfly posters in a child's bedroom or hang artwork featuring dragonflies in a living room or den. Take your own photographs of dragonflies and frame them. Metal dragonfly wall sculptures work well in an adult's bedroom, the living room or a den. A dragonfly paperweight is another item that can be used to accent any room that has a desk. A dragonfly wall clock adds a creative element to any room.
Kitchen Accessories
The kitchen is an ideal place for a dragonfly theme. The colorful dragonfly provides a bright, cheerful personality to this room. Pot holders and dish towels are some of the ways to bring the dragonfly into the kitchen. Place mats on your dining table featuring dragonflies is another. Brightly colored appliances enhanced with dragonfly themed stickers, dragonfly napkin holders and dragonfly curtains over your windows help round out the theme.
