Butterfly Nursery Decor - Very Hungry Caterpiller Book

Butterfly Nursery Decor

Decorators can emphasize the butterfly theme by framing pages from Eric Carle’s well-loved Very Hungry Caterpillar and hanging them in sequence around the nursery. Used bookstores are bound to have several affordable copies of this colorful board book.

To give the room some added depth, parents can place sticky hooks just below the ceiling at regular intervals along one wall. Draping several yards of gauze fabric along the ceiling line will bring memories of spring butterfly chases to mind. A few tissue paper butterflies described in the family craft below would accent the fabric nicely.

Greenery is key to a vibrant butterfly nursery. Silk vines, flowers, and potted silk plants will all add to the room’s lush garden feel.

Parents who want to go all out with butterfly nursery decor can hunt down a used desk, table, chairs, dresser, or chest of drawers and give them a butterfly make-over. Stencils make this a decorating project any parent can tackle.

A toy chest stenciled with flowers, butterflies, ladybugs, dragon flies, and green leaves would make a cute and colorful accent piece. Decorators could make a coordinating wall shelf in no time at all.

Higher shelves are a great place to decorate with butterfly themed storybooks. Some great titles include The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle, Charlie the Caterpillar by Dom Deluise, Where Butterflies Grow by Joanne Ryder, From Caterpillar to Butterfly by Deborah Heiligman, Clara Caterpillar by Pamela Duncan Edwards, I Wish I Were a Butterfly by James Howe, Wings in the Meadow by Jo Brewer, If at First You Do Not See by Ruth Brown, Caterpillar Caterpillar by Vivian French, The Moon of the Monarch by Jean Craighead George, Malinda Martha Meets Mariposa by Marcia Trimble, The Butterfly Hunt by Yoshi, and A Day in the Life of a Monarch Butterfly by Lizbeth Zappler. Decorating with books is an inexpensive way parents can brighten up the bedroom and instill an early love of reading.
