How to Make a Knotty Pine Room Feminine
- 1). Place border trim designed in a floral print along the wall. Select a pattern in colors to complement the wall color and room accents. Borders are prepasted, and designs and colors are numerous.
- 2). Use a gathered dust ruffle and frilly bedspread to add a female touch to a bedroom. Stay away from plaids and dark colors. Green and rose are two colors that mix well with pine furniture.
- 3). Place live flowering plants near windows. Dress each pot with a ribbon tied into a large bow.
- 4). Use white sheer curtains for window treatments. Use a gathered valance to add another female touch to the window. Add a tieback in a floral design to draw curtains away from the window.
- 5). Set a small footstool with a tapestry top at the foot of a chair. A tapestry top will make the stool look delicate.
- 6). Drape a cashmere throw over the back of a pine rocking chair. Place a ruffled chair cushion on the seat to give the appearance of a ladies chair.
- 7). Cover a dining room table with a lace tablecloth. Use lace curtains on the dining room windows as well.
- 8). Choose candles as an accessory. Match the colors to the room and pick a light floral scent.
- 9). Purchase a claw foot bathtub and pedestal sink for the bathroom. The feminine tub and sink will balance pine cabinets, creating a perfect combination.

Cover the floor with an area rug to pick up colors from the wall or fabric in the room. Use one large rug or a few small ones to turn the floor from masculine to feminine.
