Butterfly Bedroom Decor

Nothing captures the elegance and beauty of summer like butterflies. Images of these colorful, gentle creatures can create a fresh mood in rooms. Use vibrant colors to make a stylish statement or go with more subdued colors that blend with walls and furnishings. There are plenty of options, and once you decide which way you want to go, you'll have a blast creating this whimsical room.
  1. Window Treatments

    • Bring nature inside by decorating your windows with butterflies. Go with something as simple as sheers, which bring a sense of fluidity into rooms. Look for tiebacks with butterflies attached for a nice touch. If you decide to go with patterned fabric, look for one that matches your decor. Add a curtain rod with butterflies on the ends for a pleasing touch.

    Walls

    • One of the easiest ways to bring the airy nature of butterflies into a bedroom is with wallpaper. Not all wallpaper has to be bright and you might find the perfect wallpaper with subtle textured butterfly shapes. Another option is neutral shapes on wallpaper. If wallpaper is not an option, use vinyl clings to bring these summer shapes into your bedroom. They come in a variety of shapes and colors and you can arrange them in a group on the wall as art.

    Linens

    • Use butterfly-themed bed covers and linens as the focal point in your bedroom. Select a bed cover that works with the colors you've chosen, and use pillows and a ruffle to highlight other colors throughout the bedroom. If you have a canopy bed, enhance the atmosphere by decorating your canopy with butterfly-themed fabric.

    Accessories

    • Complete the butterfly look in your bedroom with accessories. Look for lampshades that enhance the décor you're using. Butterfly mobiles are a delight and they will add to the light atmosphere of the bedroom. Attach decorative tulle butterflies to lampshades and mirrors. Framed prints also add a nice touch to bedrooms without being overwhelming. Candleholders, decanters and vases can brighten up different areas of the room. Attach decals to windows for a festive flair.
