Child bedroom wall design under alcove?

Hello! I need help to make the space above my daughter's bed look magical. Her bed is under a sloping ceiling and I'm wondering how to deal with this for maximum effect. Do you have any ideas to help me and my daughter make this space beautiful? Thank you.

    A simple idea would be to paint the ceiling alcove area a deep navy colour like the night sky and hang a net of fairy lights across to represent the stars. If you don't want fairy lights then you could paint on gold or silver stars with a stencil. Cole and sons do a wallpaper with stars. Also you could use wall stickers on the wall to create a magical space like this one from icon stickers there are lots on amazon too. It all depends on what your daughter likes

    You don't say how old your daughter is or what she likes but generally children love to have their own spaces to feel safe in, play and make up fantasy worlds. I would keep the colours light, with a white or jasmine white ceiling as it will feel bigger. Could the hooks for the clothing be moved to a door? If so you could also add shelving on the wall at the foot of the bed to store books and favourite things. You could use a pretty wallpaper or mural on the back wall - get your daughter to help choose this - there is a fantastic range out there so you will easily find something she loves and that is within budget. Hang matching curtains across the front of the space to make it feel cosy and private when pulled. Soft cushions and favourite toys will complete the look and make it her own.

    Oh she's nearly 8 and a bit of a tom boy really. I should also probably have mentioned that this room is also shared with her younger 5 year old sister, who is more of a princess girl. I had hoped to create some symmetry in the room so ideally I need to find a balance that works for both girls. Wall art stickers could work well. Thanks!

    We used a wildlife wallpaper for our pair of tom-boy/princess daughters. It was the easiest way to make room for love of pink/blue/green. And they love it ;)

    :-) I'm not the only battling the Tom Boy and Princess combo then! Good idea with the wallpaper. Thanks

    Why not paint a mural above either alcove wall, you could find inspiration online in their favourite books & copy/tweak it, the girls could help you too - it would certainly define their spaces & the rest of the room could be more neutral.

    decorate wall with tree and leaves type paper or stickers, to resemble being in a treehouse

    This might not work but you could consider curtaining off the alcove to create either a secret den / enchanted forest or a theatre/ stage set. I looked at that space and immediately thought 'showtime' (sadly not conducive to sleep!)
