I made my own bedding by using a pink metallic bed skirt and a sheer fabric over the top with rose petals in it. I also hired an artist to paint fairies on the wall but I have since found a MUCH cheaper way to get fairies on the wall! Find a calender or book that has photos you like or photo copy them on a color copier and cut them out. Then scrape the bumps off the wall and decoupage them to the wall! I’ve done it with fairies, planes and skateboard stuff. It works AWESOME. I bought sheer butterflies from the dollar store and hung them from the ceiling along with some cute fairies I found. I also put netting over the bed and put some butterflies in the netting. The mystical feel can be obtained with plain bed linens and making pillows with shimmery fabrics. I have tons more ideas and could even send some photos if you want. You can e-mail me ruggerio@sbcglobal.net

That sounds fabulous! Maybe you can make a tent with shimmery fabric around your bed as a center peice, paint the walls a deep dark blue and have stars and fairies on them. Twinkle lights on the cealing. And paint your furniture to match. That woudl be magical!
Remember, if you can’t find the right thing, search it! Check fabric stores online, they have a large selection. And if you can’t find a premade bed spread, it’s easy to DIY!
