Colour inspiration for a warm, playful girls' room that grows with her
Decorating a child's room is a special moment, especially when it's their first own room, where sleeping, playing, and discovering come together. Liselot got a true girls' toddler room in a new house. The starting point? A room that feels soft and warm, yet is also playful and grows with her development. The basis of this design lies in a carefully chosen combination of paint colours and wallpaper: the foundation for a timeless and atmospheric children's room.
A calm girls' room with colour
Finding balance in your colour palette creates a pleasant atmosphere in the children's room. Too much colour can feel busy, while too little colour lacks the playfulness that is so important for young children. For Liselot, a subtly colourful palette was chosen that brings calm, but at the same time invites imagination and play. The room feels soft and friendly, with paint colours that embrace the space and wallpaper that adds that extra touch of character.
But you also want to decorate a room with an eye to the future. By consciously working with paint and wallpaper in the same colour family, a harmonious whole is created that is not trend-sensitive, but remains beautiful for years.
Soft, warm and playful paint colours
The paint colours in Liselot's room have been carefully chosen to create a warm base that suits a girls' room. Two shades from our Day at the Zoo paint collection form the common thread in this girls' room design.
Cookie Dough as a warm base colour
Cookie Dough is a soft, warm beige shade with a subtle pink undertone. This makes the colour a perfect base colour for the children's room: light enough to keep the space fresh, but warm enough to provide a sense of security. Cookie Dough is applied to the larger wall areas and creates calm and unity in the room. It is an ideal paint colour for those looking for a timeless base that is easy to combine with other colours, materials and accessories.
Fairytale Forest for a subtle accent
The cheerful green-yellow shade Fairytale Forest returns in Liselot's girls' room as a subtle accent on the continuous decorative trim. In this way, it not only forms a beautiful finish between the painted wainscoting and the wallpaper, but also provides a subtle extra touch of colour in the room: hello playfulness!
Together, Cookie Dough and Fairytale Forest create a paint palette that is sweet and cheerful. The colours form a very subtle contrast, but with that, they make this room special and unique.
Wallpaper with swans and stars
In addition to paint, wallpaper plays a big role in creating atmosphere. In Liselot's room, two different wallpaper prints from Meet Me at the Wall are combined. Mixing multiple wallpapers in a room creates a playful effect without the room feeling busy.
The pink wallpaper with swans gives the room a dreamy, almost fairytale-like ambiance. For that true girlish feel! The other wallpaper with stars provides a calm pattern that works perfectly as a background in the play area. Both prints seamlessly match the chosen paint colours.
The combination of paint and wallpaper shows how you can create zones in a girls' room with colour and pattern, without harsh transitions. The decorative trim that runs across multiple walls provides a refined finish and connects the different elements.
Colour inspiration for your girls' room
Liselot's room shows how paint colours and wallpaper together bring a child's room to life. By working with a calm colour palette, complemented by playful prints, a space is created that invites play, relaxation, and dreams.
