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.

MONKEY BEDDING for TWEENS and TEENS

MONKEY BEDDING for TEENAGE GIRLS

Monkey bedding for tweens and teenage girls doesn't have to be based on brown and beige. Why not give monkeys a makeover using purple and green? Maybe pink, purple, blue and green monkeys don't exist in the jungle, but nature doesn't have to have the final say when it comes to decorating bedrooms kids. Pre-teens or any young girls that want color and want a monkey theme can find bedding fabrics with whimsical prints with wild colors that will make them go ape!

Don't waste time feeling sad and sentimental on the day that your child announces that she is too big for her old Sock Monkey bedding set. There no reason to kick those cute monkeys to the curb. Embrace the moment and start shopping for comforters printed with monkeys in twin, full or queen sizes. Chances are that you may be able to recycle many of the bedroom's existing decorations and funny monkey pictures on the bedroom wall.

Monkey bedding fabrics printed with monkeys swinging through the jungle on vines snacking on bananas are lots of fun to use to decorate a bedroom for children. Whether you choose a bedroom design with a neutral background of beige or even painted green leaves reminiscent of the rainforest there's no rule in the decorating guide that says your monkeys have to be depicted in natural shades of dark brown and beige! In fact, wild colors are cool in monkey bedding sets. Purple, lime green and even hot pink monkeys are acceptable for a girl's room.

If you like to stick close with to the palette that Mother Nature laid out for us, it's possible to do so and still have lots of color. By designing your jungle bedroom theme with lots of parrots, tropical flowers and exotic snakes you will have a virtual riot of colorful critters all with realistic coloring. For you to design a teens bedroom around monkeys in weird colors I would recommend that you adjust your decorating ideas to let them be the star of the show or the focal point of the room. Let your funky monkeys be the most colorful objects in the room and not have to enter a competition for attention. Leave out the bright feathers and bugs and let your monkey bedding sets shine!

Oatmeal and shades of light tan would be the best colors to paint the walls. Bedroom decorations could include silk trees or if there's enough natural light in the room, real non-toxic green potted plants would be nice.

If you are planning to use blinds as part of your window treatments, consider blinds made of a natural wood such as bamboo. Rattan bedroom furniture or bent twig benches and chairs would look super. The headboard of the twin, full or queen size bed can be made of bamboo or rattan as well. Consider hanging an off white or natural, unbleached mosquito net canopy over the bed.

Plan an outing to the closest theme park or carnival and do your best to win some plush, stuffed apes to match the colors of the monkeys on your duvet cover or comforter to complete the total look of your funky monkey teen bedroom.
