Mixing and matching bedding fabrics has a way of making any duvet cover or comforter so much more exciting! First of all, it’s a real challenge to choose just the right balance of color, texture and design for a teen girls decor. A paisley pattern with all those funky, bold shapes and colors is no different.

Here are some ideas on how to decorate your teen or preteen girl's room with funky paisley motifs and designs using fabrics printed with different patterns and prints rather than solid colors.


You know from the beginning of this bedroom makeover that you will have to bring in a print with small designs that will provide a background for the dominant paisley fabrics.

Take inventory of the color scheme of the large paisley pattern. Paisley patterns are an eclectic hodgepodge of color, but which one jumps out at you? Whatever the answer to that question may be, that color will be used as accent colors in decorating the bedroom.

Now, what color seems to be the anchor or background in the paisley design? That’s the color you will use in your coordinating prints. An example would be that if your paisley bedding pattern has hot pink flowers with brown stems on a field of beige choose a fabric with a neutral brown print. Some examples of acceptable patterns would be gingham checks, polka dots, houndstooth or wild animal prints like the cheetah print in the pictures.
Consider how fabulous the hot pink paisleys will look beside the chocolate brown prints!

Some cool decorating ideas for this funky set of teen bedding would be to get a lime green, hot pink or orange faux fur rug for the bed side and stencil some paisley patterns in coordinating paint colors on the walls in a similar grouping to the one on the bedding fabric.

If you are really aggressive and like a challenge, use a striping paint technique on the walls to match the dust ruffle!

Each new generation seems to thing that they came up with paisley. The hippie crowd in the 60s did paisley along with tie-dye and the 70s mixed it up with disco glam. In the 80s and 90s paisley designs took a more starched, dignified form. Now here we are in the new millenium with cool paisley prints showing up in teen's bedrooms as well as their purses. Paisley and polka dot wallets, coin purses as well as paisley bandanas and sheets are considered so very cool this fall. Paisley patterns are pretty classic , but the colors! WOW! Bright oranges are combined with shades of turquoise blue and purple for a brilliant display of traditional fall colors gone wild!

If your tween's bedroom has an adjoining bathroom, decorate the bathroom with paisley print towels, shower curtains and other bath accessories like these! Return to Tween and Teenage Girls Paisley Pattern Bedding and Bedroom Decorating Ideas
