Bringing a little princess into the world? A modern baby girl nursery needs design, charm, and if you are going girly, a double dose of pink. Contemporary princess nurseries are big on the glam without veering into cheesy territory. Crystal chandeliers, gold-tone details, and lush bedding are all good ideas… as are outside-the-box decor elements that will set your little girl’s space apart. Here is some of our favourite princess baby room inspiration.
