As children grow up, their sense of aesthetics changes. The colors and the decors they liked as a child become boring or outdated for their taste. Naturally, they would like to have a makeover of their bedroom every couple of years. As a parent, you can help your kids figure out what colors they should choose for their walls or which wallpaper would look nice. But ultimately, the choice should be their own. Maybe you have a teenage niece who is coming to visit your house for some time. You want to welcome her by remodeling a bedroom for her. Continue reading for practical tips to help you decorate a girl’s bedroom.
The Color
When you think of a teenage girl, you instantly think of pink; you cannot help it. But, not every girl is alike. Not everyone likes frilly pinkish things. So, you must pick the color of the room based on one’s personality. If you want the room to be surprised for the teen, you can casually ask her about her preferences. Call her up and ask what colors she likes and about her favorite musicians (it’ll come in handy later). You may also ask her about her favorite flowers and so on.
- You can never go wrong with muted colors such as pastel pink, sea green, and shades of white. The room becomes calmer when you paint the walls with muted hues. You may go online and find inspirations from Pinterest and Instagram for different shades for the walls.
- You may go to a different route and add wallpapers instead. Do not select loud patterns that demand one’s attention. If you like, you can use floral wallpapers that everyone seems to like. You may also frame a large poster of a pop star like Harry Styles or Drake and put it on the walls.
The Bed
Make sure the bed is comfortable, as it is the sole function of the bed. The mattress should be firm and soft at the same time. Without a soft mattress, one cannot enjoy sleeping at night. In addition, one can develop back pain if the mattress is uncomfortable.
The Ceiling
When you are remodeling a room, pay extra attention to the ceiling of the room. Most of the time, one forgets to consider the ceiling while redecorating. But, when one sleeps on the bed, the ceiling is the prime focus that one stares at. Therefore, you can use mirrors on the ceilings to give the room a modern touch. If the ceiling is a mirror, it will be fun for her to hang out in her room with all her friends. They will definitely click a lot of selfies and have a good time together.
A Closet
Girls like their dresses and shoes; that’s just the way it is. Therefore, make sure you have enough closet space for her. Your girl cannot repeat the same dresses on her schooldays. You may look in an architect magazine to look for inspiration regarding closet style and design. In addition, the home and living online platforms provide interesting décor solutions.
Themed Room
You may choose a theme for the room. For example, little kids love their room to look like a fairyland. If your child enjoys anime movies, you may hire an artist and an interior designer to decorate the room with keeping the anime theme in mind.
