A special day calls for a special outfit, and tutu skirts in cherry shades make an excellent base for a child’s attire for the holiday. Pair the skirt with a pink and red top decorated with hearts or have your child design her own t-shirt or turtleneck to wear proudly.

Depending on your location, you may also want to have your child don heavy tights to keep her warm in the brisk February air.

Such an outfit is versatile. A tutu skirt and complementary top is appropriate attire for a party-going gal or a homebody.

Accessories will help to make the outfit, too. Choose a headband with a bright red flower or a pair of tights featuring roses. A fairy wand is always a nice addition, and butterfly wings or ladybug wings can bring a bit of lightness to the affair.

If you’re hosting a Valentine party, you’ll need to plan for decorations, too. With their red and black color theme, ladybug decorations are a natural fit for a Valentine’s Day fete. Scatter mini-ladybugs throughout the room, and include bunches of red and black balloons for extra emphasis.

Be sure to involve your child in planning for the day, as well. Let her pick the dessert or games, and encourage her to help with decorations. She’ll have a sense for the types of activities that will appeal to her friends, and she’ll enjoy the party even more herself.

With their basic red and black color scheme, ladybugs are perfect for the basis of a playroom. Ladybug mobiles may hang from the ceilings, or ladybugs can be used as curtain tiebacks, too. Use red and black stickers to spell your child’s name, and choose red and black storage crates to keep toys from going astray.

Of course, ladybugs can also be paired with similar beautiful creatures in your decorating scheme. Butterfly decor will be complementary, as will dragonfly decorations. Flowers are likely to have a place in the room, too.

Such a playroom can give a jumpstart to your child’s imagination. Encourage your child to create a story about ladybugs. Give your child a chest full of ladybug-themed dress-up clothes, like red or black leotards, glittery red wings and tutu skirts.

Ladybug themes can also be appropriate for other small rooms, such as bathrooms, kitchens and laundry or utility rooms. The splash of color they provide can have a major impact in a small space.

Ladybugs also make a great theme for a child’s birthday party. You can decorate with red and black streamers and tablecloths and bake a ladybug cake or cupcakes for the big moment.

Be creative with games like Pin the Spot on the Ladybug, or hide a stuffed ladybug and give the guest who finds it a special prize. Be sure that every guest gets a mini-ladybug to take home, too!

Prosper, Texas – January 9, 2012

The decision to offer more boy-friendly room decor was made after requests were received from customers that had previously used some of Bugs-n-Blooms’ butterfly room decorations and other sweet and colorful room accessories, asking for products that would be better geared to little boys as they grew out of their nursery decor.  The new wall stickers can be used along with Bugs-n-Blooms’ butterfly nursery decorations or other garden themed decor, or they can be used on their own to create a sports inspired room design.

“Most of the products we offer are geared to little girls,” explains Jennifer De Vol, owner of Bugs-n-Blooms.  ”But our butterfly decorations are also sometimes used in baby boy nurseries and we wanted our customers to be able to continue to add a bit of fun to their little boys’ rooms, even as they start to grow.   We also have customers that have enjoyed decorating their little girls’ rooms with our products and then come back to us looking for products that are more suitable for their sons’ rooms.  And of course, there are also plenty of little girls that like sports over butterflies and fairies!  Increasing the variety offered to our customers was our main inspiration for adding more boy-friendly decor options.”

The new sport themed wall stickers come in a choice of baseball, basketball, soccer or football designs and adhere quickly to walls and other smooth surfaces. The stickers are self-adhesive, are removable and reusable, and can be easily cleaned with a damp cloth.  Each set of stickers comes with a ball sticker (depending on the sport) and a series of alphabet letters that can be used to personalize the room with the child’s name or a saying. 

In addition to sports themed wall stickers, Bug-n-Blooms offers a wide selection of nursery and bedroom decorations, including nylon butterflies, ladybugs, dragonflies, bumblebees and flowers that can be hung or attached to a wall, mini versions of their larger garden and butterfly decorations that can be placed on furniture or shelves, and even matching mobiles to hang over baby’s crib.  The company continually expands its line to meet customer requests, to offer variety, and to provide decor options in the hottest color combination’s on the market.

“We aim to bring a bit of beauty and whimsy to the rooms of little girls and boys,” says De Vol.  ”We think our new sports wall stickers will be very well received and will be a great addition to children’s bedrooms and playrooms alike.  We are excited to see the response to our newest products for 2012!”

Butterfly wings can be the foundation of a number of indoor playtime activities. Your child can develop skits about butterflies, with costumes complete with tutu skirts.

You can select a number of options to give your child different choices for the butterfly costumes. Butterfly wings come in a range of colors and designs, with embellishments like crystals, glitter or gems. The tutu skirts come with a mixture of accents and design features, too.

Add accessories like tiaras and fairy wands to the costume trunk to expand your child’s imagination even more. Include costumes for other creatures, like ladybugs and bumblebees, to add a splash of bright colors, too.

Butterfly decorations may also inspire creative play on drab winter days. Your child may choose to do a painting or drawing using a nylon butterfly as a model. Crafting a butterfly collage can be a fun diversion, too. Give your child a butterfly pattern, some scissors, glue and a collection of unique papers or fabrics and let her channel her creativity.

Butterflies have lots of friends in nature that can accompany them at playtime, too. Ladybug decorations, dragonflies and bumblebees complement a butterfly theme, whether it’s for dress-up, make-believe play or some artistic endeavor.

If your child shows interest in butterflies, you can also encourage your child to expand on that interest and explore the life cycles and species of butterflies. Turn butterfly affinity into a science lesson that gives your child the gift of knowledge.

Butterflies are beautiful all year long, so take advantage of opportunities to bring a touch of spring into your home to get you through the darker months.

Butterfly wings and tutu skirts can be the foundation of the costume, and you can add accessories like fairy wands, butterfly halos or barrettes and hair clips for additional flair.

To give your child a hint of what is contained in the gift-wrapped box, use butterfly decorations, like mini-butterflies and ribbon embossed with butterflies, to embellish the gift.

A butterfly costume is a present that will be used all year long, and it can seamlessly transition from season to season. Pair it with thick tights or leggings for warmth during winter. Eliminate additional layers as the weather gets warmer.

You can take the surprise even further, making it the centerpiece of a special Christmas, by using butterfly decor to turn a space in your home into a butterfly room. This gesture will capture the magic of Christmas day for months.

Move the Christmas tree into this room for an additional dramatic effect. Your child will be amazed to see the transformation when she rushes in to open her gifts.

A gift like a butterfly costume is sure to spark your child’s imagination. She can act out any number of roles—butterfly princess, garden denizen or leading ballerina—while wearing the costume, with the only limit being her own creativity!

With a butterfly costume among her gifts, this Christmas will certainly be a memorable one for your child. Undoubtedly, this present will become a favorite that is worn over and over again.

The new Hailey nylon butterfly tiebacks were designed to coordinate with a line of butterfly decor that was inspired earlier this year by the daughter of Bugs-n-Blooms owner, Jennifer DeVol.  In the spring of 2011, DeVol became enamored with a drawing that her daughter, then eight years old, drew of a butterfly that was both whimsical and fun.  Based on that drawing, DeVol commissioned a festive line of multi-colored nylon butterfly wings that resembled her daughter’s childlike butterfly rendering, adding to an already expansive selection of butterfly wings.

“The Hailey butterfly decor has been very well-received by our customers since it was first introduced,” explains DeVol.  “And like many of our other butterfly decorations, customers continually request matching accessories so they can fully coordinate the room that they are decorating.  That is why we have chosen at this time to introduce a line of Hailey butterfly curtain tie-backs in popular color combinations.  They are the icing on the cake when designing a feminine and whimsical butterfly nursery or bedroom.”

In addition to the Hailey tie-backs, DeVol’s other new tie-back options include two-tone nylon flowers in a choice of pink and purple, pink and green, or pink and brown.  These are among the most popular color combinations offered by Bugs-n-Blooms.  An adorable and dainty removable wall sticker is the final new product being offered by the company this holiday season.  The 14” x 7” removable vinyl sticker includes pink scroll edging with an image of a triple layered butterfly and a glitter ladybug and the quote “With a butterfly kiss and a ladybug hug, sleep tight little one, like a bug in a rug!”  The removable vinyl sticker is a nice accent over a crib or little girl’s bed or it can also be used to adorn furniture or lamp shades.

“As always, we at Bugs-n-Blooms aim to provide our customers with the ultimate selection of sweet, innocent and beautiful decor for babies and little girls’ rooms,” says DeVol.  “We also recognize that people love our garden-themed decorations for baby boys’ rooms as well, and with that in mind, our next new product release will be a special surprise for boy themed bedrooms.  So, be sure to check back soon!”

Butterfly decorations can be used to create a setting in a specific room, such as a child’s playroom or a sun porch. The butterflies can be the central focus, or they may accentuate a different theme, such as “spring fling” or “fanciful garden.”

Just as butterfly wings can enhance various motifs, you can use them in different ways, too. Hang a nylon butterfly from the ceiling or scatter mini-butterflies among coffee tables and end tables in a living room. You can paint butterflies on the walls or on pieces of furniture, as well. In a child’s bedroom, choose sheets and comforters decorated with butterflies.

Butterfly decorations also blend in well with other embellishments. They can be paired with ladybug decorations, for example. Bumblebees and dragonflies also serve as good accompaniments for butterflies. You can also include items that feature flowers or other aspects of nature along with your butterflies.

Beyond having butterflies as a permanent fixture in your home’s design scheme, you can also use them to decorate for a special event. With their beauty and grace, butterflies offer an excellent theme for a little girl’s birthday party or a baby or bridal shower.

If you’re preparing for a shower, hang butterfly garlands along tables, and include small butterflies in floral centerpieces found on the tables. For a child’s fete, bring butterflies into the games. Choose a butterfly-shaped piñata and decorate cupcakes with butterfly picks or butterfly icing designs.

If you have a love for butterflies, don’t hesitate to let that come through in the way you decorate your home or host an event. Be creative and have fun with it!

Begin by painting the walls a light shade of green (or sky blue on the top half and grassy green on the bottom) and decorating them with stickers of flowers, grass or small trees. If you have an artistic streak, you may want to try your hand at painting a mural depicting a serene garden scene.

Once the base is in place, you can add all sorts of embellishments to your indoor “garden”. Why not blend your garden nursery with a butterfly nursery? Place butterfly decor of different sizes, materials and colors throughout the room. A butterfly mobile hanging from the ceiling can create the illusion of the beautiful creatures in their natural stage of flight.

Ladybug decorations are also good additions to a garden-themed baby room, and their bright red hues offer a nice contrast to the predominantly green surroundings. Bumblebees also are often found in gardens, and they’ll blend in with your garden-themed nursery, as well. Stuffed ladybugs, butterflies and bumblebees are other decoration options.

Personalize your child’s room by spelling her name on the wall or a closet door using alphabet stickers decorated with butterflies or flowers. Create a wide door frame with trellis to mark the entry into the garden.

Choose linens and accessories that accentuate the theme and feature flowers, plants or butterflies. You can even include a few leafy, non-toxic plants to complete the look and add a little life to the nursery. Pick a particularly young plant, and you can tend to it and watch it grow right along with your child.

With a garden-themed nursery, the possibilities are limited only by your imagination. Let it run wild!
