Decorate A Child'S Beach Bedroom

Girl's Beach Bedroom


Create a beach bedroom designed to reflect your daughter's love of sea and surf that can be used as a tropical retreat. She won't soon outgrow this design. Enjoy the summer all year long by creating a fabulous beach theme bedroom.


Instructions


1. Start the room by giving it a tropical background. Paint the walls sunny warm colors, like pineapple, mango, or a sky blue. You can also paint in a mural of the beach, and even paint real sand in with the mural and glue shells onto the wall. Lastly, you can paint a sky on the ceiling, using fluffy, soft-looking white clouds. But don't forget the sun either!


2. The main point of any bedroom is, of course, the bed. Bedding can be a combination of solids and patterns in tropical colors, such as ocean blue, hibiscus pink, or lime green. A custom bed can be built to mimic a shape of a structure commonly seen on the sandy beach like a bungalow with a thatched roof. Or, you can have a bed that might be seen floating in the ocean like a sailboat, rowboat, yacht, or a cruise ship. You can also buy pillows shaped like flip-flops, suns, shells, and all kinds of beach accessories. These are easy to find when you look around.


3. To give the furniture a real beachy look, you can color the existing furniture with thin coats of white paint, which is also fun for the kids. You can also purchase a wicker set, if you don't want to spend time painting. Consider a hammock in one corner to add to the feel of the beach. You can also find smaller hammocks to hang and fill with sea life stuffed animals.


4. The best part of creating your beach theme room is the accessories and other objects that complete your room. You can buy lightweight wicker items like wastebaskets, lamps, picture frames, and laundry baskets. Add life in the room with a great selection of plants, both real and fake. Use both floor and hanging plants in front of your windows to add a touch of summer to the room.


5. Other details that might help out the fantasy may include a beach umbrella for shade and privacy, authentic beach furniture, along with fake rocks, and boulders. An aquarium filled with tropical fish or goldfish will do well to add an element of life to your daughter's new beach-themed room. Don't forget to add a mermaid to this tropical paradise.


6. You might also consider a small area in the corner of the room to add a little beach, complete with sand, shells, and a cute umbrella. It doesn't have to be big, but it will go along way to adding to the room.
