Any unique fairy theme bedroom decorating ideas for 2 little girls?

We are remodeling our girls' room and they are wanting a fairy theme. We already have the walls painted white with an allover sponge effect done in pink, so I'd like to mainly stick to that color and perhaps incorporate a bit of purple too. I'm looking for some creative ways to decorate using this theme. I am very crafty, so I would love to hear some DIY ideas although any other "thrifty" ideas are great too, since we are also remodeling our boys' bedroom as well and are on a strict budget. Thank you!

1. I redid my niece's rooms as a surprise to them, and what i did was went to micheal's and bought some of those wooden stars, they come in a small package. There are about four different sizes of the stars in a pack, i seperated them into size, and put them all in groups of 18, there were 6 small, 6 medium, and 6 large in each pile. I then used fishing line and hot glued them to back of the stars. Then, I painted each pile, one pink, one white, and one purple. When you cut the fishing line, just cut them randomly. When it's all finished after you hang them from the ceiling, it'll look like a starry night sky. it looks very fairy tale like. You could also paint their names in with fairytale like writing. Also, you could write have little sayings around such as "and they lived happily ever after" or "once upon a time in a faraway kingdom". Lastly, you could buy bed canopies (http://images.search.yahoo.com/images/view?back=http%3A%2F%2Fimages.search.yahoo.com%2Fsearch%2Fimages%3Fp%3Dbed%2Bcanopies%26ei%3DUTF-8%26fr%3Dyfp-t-701&w=360&h=438&imgurl=www.mosquitonets.com%2FUserFiles%2F393-Files%2FImage%2F183049-1.jpg&rurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mosquitonets.com%2Fg%2F2897%2Fmosquito-net-bed-canopy-circular.html&size=24k&name=183049+1+jpg&p=bed+canopies&oid=2b4f815e75579cf8&fr2=&no=18&tt=3167&sigr=128tfbaio&sigi=11rtjim62&sigb=12hqvop7p) ^^this is just an example, but you can buy them anywhere and in various colors. I hope I helped out a little bit :-)
2. If it isn't too expensive, you can paint the crown molding the lavender or purple to add dimension. You can go to the halloween stores online now while the stuff is cheap or to Lillian Vernon and Oriental Trading Company and find the Fairy Wings that come in Costumes and Hang them above their beds or in the corner of the room. There is this craft I made with my daughter a few years back of these flower fairies: with wooden beads as heads, pipe cleaner as bodies, and silk flowers as dresses. You can probably google it and find it easy enough but they can be hung up with fishing wire. Very cute. Also think about painting the ceiling with a bunch of fluffy white clouds or hanging a cute chandelier you can get a garage or estate sale. Oh yeah! I had one of those bed canopies on my daughters bed for years! Totally forgot about that!
