Hello! I need help to make the space above my daughter's bed look magical. Her bed is under a sloping ceiling and I'm wondering how to deal with this for maximum effect. Do you have any ideas to help me and my daughter make this space beautiful? Thank you.

8 years agoA simple idea would be to paint the ceiling alcove area a deep navy colour like the night sky and hang a net of fairy lights across to represent the stars. If you don't want fairy lights then you could paint on gold or silver stars with a stencil. Cole and sons do a wallpaper with stars. Also you could use wall stickers on the wall to create a magical space like this one from icon stickers there are lots on amazon too. It all depends on what your daughter likes

Comments (9)With this being a guest room, I'd go for something light and simple on the walls but bring some colour and texture through with accessories. You seem to have alot of storage in the space, i'd de-clutter these and throw out some of the wardrobe's that you have. Think about having a storage bed so you can hide some of these away. In your alcove, we'd recommend using this as a dressing area. You could have a mirror on the wall and have a small desk/built in shelf put in. again keep this lightly coloured and the mirror will help reflect light from the windows and lighting you may have.

Comments (22)Hi Suzie, I'm happy to help! If you sand the doors and use a good wood primer you can use the same paint. Then you can wax over the top. A matt finish will be nice and contemporary looking and feel more natural. Glad you like the idea for the knobs, I think it'll be cute! try to add some soft furnishing and accessories with some orange for a pop of colour and use the grey from the carpet too to tie it all together. It'll be great....See Morebedroom design advice

Comments (1)Hello I cannot quite make out the stairs. Do you step onto the landing just outside the children’s bedroom? I ask because I was wondering if you could gain some space there. Failing that you say you have built an alcove into the next bedroom for a cupboard which I can see on your plan. It may be a kerfuffle but could you revisit that and extend it all the way to the window wall? I was thinking that you could then fit a cot in there with drawers or cupboards underneath. If there is such a thing. You could then have a cabin bed for your 11 year old in the location it is now. The cabin bed and similar set up for the cot would hopefully compensate for losing the wardrobe....See More

8 years agoOh she's nearly 8 and a bit of a tom boy really. I should also probably have mentioned that this room is also shared with her younger 5 year old sister, who is more of a princess girl. I had hoped to create some symmetry in the room so ideally I need to find a balance that works for both girls. Wall art stickers could work well. Thanks!
