Girl Comforter Set

Comforter sets fit for a Princess

Are you struggling with your growing child and their changing tastes? Has your toddler started to develop opinions about her room, or is your teen rebelling over what she sees as an immature room theme? Have no fear because there are multiple options when looking for comforter sets for girls.


All about her

When I was little, I had minimal input into the look of my room. My mom purchased and I accepted. This didn’t change until high school when I was almost out of the house. However my 9 year old niece has been helping choose her bedroom decor ever since she could verbalize her opinions. She has grown out of her Power Puff Girls phase and into a more girly and less character oriented taste. So, when considering what comforter set your particular girl may prefer, it might not be a bad idea to go to the source and ask. However, that does not mean that because she wants an exorbitantly priced comforter set that you need to buy it for her; it is simply a recommendation so that you can negotiate something that suits your budget and her tastes.


Character Sets

Character sets are abundant in everything from baby bedding and toddler sets to full size comforter sets for girls. These sets usually work best for toddlers and younger girls since they are most likely to want their favorite character on their sheets, comforter, pillows etc. These sets are also readily available at most department and discount stores. The prices are usually reasonable, under $100, and the quality can range from quite poor to quite good.


Girly Sets

Girl comforter sets also come in some feminine patterns and colors. Many are bubble gum pink with butterflies, flowers or even a shoe or shopping theme. These sets have a distinctly girly feel and are often plush and maybe even ruffled. Usually they are displayed with lots of toss pillows or shag rugs in matching hues. This set may actually appeal longer to the young miss than the more faddish character sets. Sets in this category can range greatly from under $50 to more than a couple of hundred dollars. The quality also has quite a range from scratchy screen printed fabrics to velvets, satins and high quality cotton and silks. Choose what works best for you, and always read the care labels. A dry clean only set may not be worth the trouble.



Sporty Sets

If characters have lost their appeal and girly just isn’t her style but she loves sports, there are more and more sporty sets available. Do not let yourself get stuck in a gender rut if what she really wants on her bed is the local sports team emblem. If you really want her room to look more feminine use more feminine accessories in matching colors and go ahead and get sporty.


Crafty

If you or someone readily available is talented with sewing or crafts you could always create a girl comforter set. Choose a plain comforter or duvet cover in a color that is basic but appealing. Then depending on her age and her skill and yours decorate with fabric paints, dyes or appliques. Dip dying is popular now; this is where one end is saturated with color and the other end just barely has a hint of hue. Fabric paints can be easier to use and make customization easy.

If you choose to sew bows, ribbons, buttons or other items onto a comforter make sure they are not a choking hazard to any young children and that they are properly secured. A sewing machine would probably be best when adding decorations to the comforter or duvet.

The process of choosing or creating a comforter set for your girl can create fond memories. Involving the child in the decision not only helps avoid an argument but also teaches decision making skills and allows self-expression. Take your time choosing your girl comforter set and remember that fashion can be fun.
