    Red-and-blue checked valances are attached to the window with fabric fasteners making this a no-sew window treatment.

The room possesses many features that will allow Lee to enjoy the space as he gets older. The raised bed has a built-in desk and a recessed niche that is the perfect place to store books or coloring supplies. A ladder reaching up to the top bunk is bound to be a place to play.

The window treatments are another great idea. Instead of stapling the simple valances to boards or sewing and hanging them, Jenny attached the fabric triangles to the window frame with fabric fasteners. The small drapery panels on either side of the windows are made from whimsical playing card fabric, edged in navy; the panels hang from gold rings on a black rod.

The playing card fabric also adorns pillows, a chair, and a bolster at the foot of the lower bed. Other plush pillows are covered in red and blue fabrics to coordinate with the bed linens and valances.

Lee's playful castle is definitely fit for a king--or in this case, a little prince.
