PURPLE BEADED CURTAINS and BOHEMIAN BEDDING and DECOR
GO HERE FOR MORE
I've come to the realization that the right accessories, which in this case are exotic, beaded curtain panels, can transform most any comforter set or an inexpensive bed in a bag into a blissful bohemian dream. There's no need for luxurious silk designer fabrics so long as the jewel tone color scheme is in place. Mix and match the weave as well as the color of decorative materials through the use of over stuffed throw pillows, shams and floor coverings. If you have no objection to your teen girl's boudoir taking on the look of a harem; big comfortable floor pillows and upholstered hassocks would look pretty cool.
Perhaps the key to this style of decor is in the lighting reflected through the beadwork used as window treatments or even to take the place of a closet or bedroom entry door in a pinch. Yards and yards of polyester fabrics to gather and drape for effect cost less than one single yard of raw silk. For a bedroom or college dorm room where chocolate milk or soft drinks and chips will be consumed by giggling teenage girls, the polyester material that can be machine washed is a much more intelligent choice than natural fabrics that will have to be taken to the dry cleaner to remove any stains.
Anchor your faux jewels with earthtones in clever combinations like purple and brown or a rich and luxurious bohemian style purple and green. Hang some lanterns on the walls to resemble something that might be found in a Bedouin chieftain's tent in the desert and your cheap and easy teenage girl's bedroom makeover can be declared a stylish success.
