BLUE and WHITE BEDDING - HIBISCUS TROPICAL COMFORTERS for GIRLS

GO HERE FOR MORE!


When a client mentions that they were thinking of a set of navy blue and white bedding my mind has a nasty habit of jumping into nautical decorating mode. There’s just something about the contrast of those colors that make me think of the uniform worn by commanding officers in the US Navy.

But most teenage girls have little interest in a tailored (read formal or stiff) blue and white comforter set and a bedroom decorated with colorful ships’ flags and shiny gold buttons. No matter how proud they are of our military; they are just not into Naval decorating ideas for their bedrooms. So, I have found myself in need of re-routing my decorative thought process to be more in line with their interests and take steps to provide the girls’ navy blue and bedding in a more casual and fun design; like navy blue Roxy bedding with tropical, Hawaiian print fabrics splashed with big hibiscus flowers so fresh and exciting that you can almost hear the waves splashing on the beach.

With a set of tropical blue and white bedding, you are free to add pops of bright colors like hot pink, lime green or even light blue and orange to accent the bedding. This style of teenage girls’ navy blue and white bedding will give mom the bedroom color scheme that she wanted and her daughter gets to relive the fun memories of her spring vacation at the beach through her bedroom’s decor.

ROXY BEDDING SETS for GIRLS-BEDROOM DECORATING IDEAS

I was recently contracted to design a bedroom around a collection of Roxy bedding. for girls using a tropical floral design. The tropical print duvet cover fabric had a unique color scheme of red and brown with touches of oatmeal and tan which was not a combination that you might have pictured for a comforter in a Roxy comforter set called Coconut.

Normally I see bright pink, blue and yellow in varying shades when teen girls want to take their decor in an Hawaiian style of decorating. This unusual hibiscus flower print bedding collection was different in that I could picture lots of stained wooden accessories rather than the flower arrangements and glassware or ceramics that came to my mind when the teenage girl called me on my cell phone to tell me that she wanted a completely "Roxy Bedroom" and that she had already picked out a set of Roxy Bedding for girls. Coconut being the operative word here, because brown was the key to decorating this room successfully.

The decorating ideas that were put into practice for this bedding set were tropical but grounded in woven rattan and dark stained woods. The headboard for the bed was woven rattan which blended beautifully with the wide slats of the dark wood plantation shutter window treatments. Accent pillows in a textured fabric that was an oatmeal color with flecks of brown decorated the top of the comforter and a chocolate or mocha tailored bed skirt balance the break between the bold print fabrics and the hardwood floor.

The surprising thing was that once the room was completely decorated I saw that the bedroom could have just as easily worked for a boy as a girl it was so lacking in girly colors. The tropical print on the Roxy bedding for girls was all that saved the room from being overly masculine in design.

Most teens or tween girls might find this Roxy bedroom a little mature, but this teenage girl was very involved in the selection of decorative accessories and she loved the outcome. I found the room very sophisticated but it still managed to give off a casual feel. I couldn’t help but wonder how we could use the same set of Roxy bedding with lighter, brighter colors and some fun accessories like monkeys for a truly tropical bedroom. Maybe next time.
