FUNKY TEENAGE GIRLY GIRLS BEDROOM IDEAS
|
Mothers who are frustrated that all of their teenage girls bedroom decorating ideas have been rejected as being to baby-ish generally appreciate my willingness to jump in to help before they are ready to jump ship. What happens is that some moms have a hard time letting go of the baby girl room themes that were used before her daughter decided she was a big girl, usually in the preteen or tween age years.
There is nothing wrong with hanging on to a particular color scheme or theme and many a nursery has been decorated with the idea of getting lots of mileage out of the decor. But if a teen or preteen girl gets a hint that her bedroom design is going to look pretty much like her room when she was a baby or a toddler, the trouble begins.
BIG GIRLS BEDROOM THEMES
In my experience, you either love decorating with a theme or you hate it. Personally, I am a big fan of basing my girls bedroom ideas on themes. I do my best to keep my decorating ideas for girls bedrooms from being cookie cutter copies of any other girl's room design that I have worked with.
I believe in offering the opportunity for kids to express themselves and prefer decorations that can be personalized to allow a girl’s individuality to shine. I try to personalize my girls bedroom ideas by asking her for her ideas on the best themes or the best bedroom colors for girls.
GIRLS BEDROOM FURNITURE
Girls’ bedroom furniture functions pretty much the same as furniture in a room for an adult. The main difference is that furniture for a young girl’s bedroom is often lighter in color and may be smaller in scale especially for the toddler through preteen. A good example of this is the popularity of wicker furniture for girls’ bedrooms. Choosing furniture falls directly behind shopping for girls bedding sets on my list of girls bedroom ideas. Pretty girls' bedroom vanities and armoires provide storage as well as decorative appeal.
GIRLS BEDROOM DECORATING IDEAS
Decorating ideas for girls’ bedrooms don’t have to come from a home and garden show or teen magazine. Incredible tips can be picked up in unusual places like paying close attention while watching television to a bedroom staged for the latest teen idol, a storybook or from colors enjoyed during a stroll in a garden. As for myself, I prefer to pick up my inspirational ideas from a leisurely stroll along the aisles of the bedding department in the mall to see if there is anything there that shouts at me to suggest it to a client for my next girls bedroom decorating project.
