ROCK N ROLL BEDDING - DECORATE YOUR BEDROOM LIKE A ROCK STAR

GO HERE FOR MORE




The right set of rock n roll bedding should include any or all of the following decorative elements:

• Cool colors. Lots of pink, black and other hot colors are best.
  
• Graffiti
  
• Your favorite punk rock band’s name or logo
  
• Pictures of your favorite rock star
  
• Electric Guitars
  

Rock and roll bedding should have an attitude. Ever since Elvis Presley made the scene, teenage girls have wanted to decorate their bedrooms with pictures of the musical idol of the moment. Because of the King’s affinity for giving pastel colored teddy bears to his most dedicated fans they were used as decorations for bedroom walls for the better part of the decade of the 50s.

Times have changed and punk rock stars rarely are associated with any icon less shocking than bright red roses. And even then, the long stemmed roses may be threaded through the empty eye socket of a skull.

The style of rock n roll bedding and comforter sets that is most often seen in the bedrooms of preteens and tweens at the time of this article is those that are part of the Hannah Montana product line. Hannah Montana guitar bedding sets and wall decorations are big hits with the teenybopper crowd. For young parents who want their newborns to be hip, there is plenty of rock and roll baby stuff in the stores.

Older girls who believe they are too mature for Disney Channel viewing tend to prefer their rock star bedding sets to be slightly more graphic; or at least as graphic as their moms will allow. The perfect rock band bedding for this teenage girl might be as middle of the road as having musical notes and electric guitars printed on the fabric or more band specific. It’s common for record companies to use every means possible to promote the latest up and coming rock band’s world tour or recordings with t-shirts, posters and now to the delight of many a devoted fan; rock n roll bedding sets.

GRAFFITI STREET ART with STYLE

ART PRINTS - Art.com!

Urban graffiti street art or whatever this art form is called in your area might be a good option to explore if your home needs a punch of color and nothing else works. Graffiti art has gotten such a bad reputation because the artists have a nasty habit of defacing public property with it or some symbols are supposed to mark the territories of street gangs. Neither diminishes the fact that many examples are so brilliantly executed that it seems a shame to paint over it or remove it.

Last month I worked with a client that wanted lots of color in her brand new apartment. When I arrived I could see the reason for the request because in spite of the fact that it was new construction there were lighting problems. This was one dark, gloomy apartment with virtually no sunlight and too few light fixtures. On top of it all, there was dark leather upholstery on the sofas and chair.

I knew that the answer to the problem would lie in the large expanse of wall space in the main living area would be the best place for an art display. Actually, the ceilings were so high and the area was so wide that a gallery of large posters and prints would not be out of the question.

Usually the problem that I run into has more to do with trying to make a small room seem larger rather than finding enough cool stuff to fill a room. An added bonus was that the neutral tones in the rest of the room gave me plenty of options as there was no color scheme to work around. The blank canvas that I was being given was a decorator’s dream come true.

I thought that the project was going to be little more than getting the pictures hung on the walls until I found that the owner had no affection for traditional forms of wall art that are colorful. Flowers were too feminine, landscapes weren’t the best fit with their selection of sophisticated, urban style furnishings and fabrics and she just couldn’t seem to make a connection with mainstream abstract art prints. I pulled out some examples of urban graffiti street art prints and posters that were my last resort.

I balanced the graffiti street art posters on the back of the sofa so that she could get a feel for what they might do for the room and I have to admit that even I was amazed. Anyone who has wondered is graffiti an art form worthy of respect should pick up a few graffiti art posters or paintings and inspect them with an open mind. They might be the decorative element that takes your decorating project from boring to extraordinary.
