GIRLS BEACH BEDROOM IDEAS

No matter where you live, in a month the water temps will be super. Until then, it’s time for girls’ beach bedroom ideas to set the stage for the sun, surf and sand that are no doubt your teenage girl’s reason for existence in the summer.





Kicking off a successful beach theme decorating project in your daughter’s room is as easy as finding the perfect surf bedding set, flip flop bedding or Hawaiian bedding covered in hula girls or vintage Hawaiian scenes filled with images of palm trees and volcanoes in the background that seem threatening but would never dare to erupt and ruin a perfect day when playing in the ocean’s waves is the only occupation on a young lady’s mind.


WALL DECORATIONS

When thinking of what to use to decorate the walls that will match your teenage girl’s beach print comforter set, think cheap and colorful. Teens are given to changing their minds as often as they change their outfits. Avoid the temptation to buy expensive limited edition art prints or designer, beach theme teenage girls bedding sets and instead look for cheap flip flip prints, Hawaiian travel posters or buy some wall hangers and use her surfboard as part of the decor.

ACCESSORIES AND WINDOW TREATMENTS

Remember the beach with a tiki hut that your daughter and her teenage friends raved about? Use their description of that magical place in your plans for girls’ beach bedroom ideas. You can buy bed canopies, window treatments and bedskirts made out of raffia that resembles both hula skirt material and the thatch on the tiki hut’s roof. This material has a tropical feel to it that won’t clash with any color scheme and will coordinate beautifully with any beach theme comforter set that your tween or teenage girl fell in love with.

PAINTING

The first color that may pop into your mind for the best paint color to use as a foundation for your girls’ beach bedroom ideas may be your favorite shade of blue. Whether that is turquoise, teal blue or a deep azure, my advice is to save it for an accent color and focus instead on choosing a good neutral color. Imagine the color of the sand on your favorite beach where you spent your island vacation.

FLOOR COVERING

Never fear, I won’t take our girls’ beach bedroom ideas as far as to sprinkle sand on the floor of the room. But I do recommend replacing the existing carpet with woven sisal rugs, bamboo rugs or flooring.

Those tips should put you on your way to forming your own teenage girls beach bedroom ideas and Hawaiian surf decorating plans that will please any beach bunny beyond her wildest dreams.

SHOE THEME BEDROOM for SOPHISTICATED TEENS ABOUT TOWN

high heel shoes and purses bedding set

GO HERE FOR MORE!




I'm always interested in diva girl or glamour bedding and bedroom designs and decor for the more sophisticated older teen girl. The teenage or college age girl that this page will have decorating ideas for may have outgrown pastel pink flip flips and beach room themes, but still has a thing for shoes as all ladies do! For this girl, a glamourous high heel shoe and purse or handbag style of decor might be acceptable.

On this page we will share instructions on how to make some of the high shoe bedroom decorations.

  • Paint a red and white polka dot and purple stripe pattern on a large hatbox to be a platform for our jewel encrusted high heeled shoe to place on top
  • Spray paint a sexy shoe in bright red (or use any funky color combination that you think your teen wants: pink, black and white polka dots will work just as nicely)
  • Paste fluffy maribou feathers pasted on the toe
  • Top the feathers with an antique or vintage rhinestone brooch
  • Hot glue some satin ribbons tied in an elegant bow on the back of the shoe with a jewel in the center to cover the knot
  • Loop some bright, contemporary lime green colored cording in bows on the sides of your hat box to add another color in the mix and to make it interesting
  • Print an ornate label with your child's name on it in a unique font


Who would have dreamed that red and purple would look so luxurious in combination? Who has ever used an ill fitting platform shoe to decorate a teen's bedroom? Stick around, friend, and we give you decorating tips and ideas and do lots of cool, unique stuff that will make your teens think that you are a decorating genius with a professional interior decorator for a best friend!

What a treasure trove of unique bedroom decorating ideas you can draw from this homemade decoration that is so CHEAP to make! Now you will carry these colors and textures around the teen's bedroom or dorm room with spectacular results!

Maribou feathers and gemstones can be pasted on existing furniture and fixtures for a quick and easy makeover to take a girl's room from pre-teen or tween to teenage or college freshman!

Lime green tassels can be duplicated as curtain tie backs and it would be so easy to paint the walls a deep red semi-gloss with white painted circles or polka dots! If your diva has a closet full of high fashion Jimmy Choo's, chances are she will adore a shoe themed bedroom designed to be just as fashionable as her inventory of shoes!

Pick out some shoe themed artwork, some bright red lip shaped floor pillows and your young sophisticate is sure to be impressed with this unique bedroom design.
