How to Decorate a Bedroom Your Teen Will Actually Like

When it comes to decorating bedrooms, parents seldom do a good job for their teenage children. This is, partly, because teenagers themselves gradually withdraw and do not express their interests as much as they do when they are children. So, because of this, parents end up decorating the bedroom with memorabilia and things that the teenager would have liked years earlier, which leaves you with a very unsatisfied teenager. Not to worry, though, for, by the end of this page, we hope you will be equipped and ready to decorate your teenager’s bedroom.

Here is how to decorate a bedroom that a teenager will actually like.

Speak to Them First

First and foremost, the best thing that you can do is speak to them first. This will give them a platform and an opportunity to voice anything that they might want to be done, and equally, will give you a platform to voice any suggestions you might have, or tell them about anything that you might have had in mind. By asking them and getting them involved creatively, you will win major brownie points. We will now move onto the fundamentals for a good bedroom, so be sure to adjust each item according to the specific taste and wants of your teenager.

Bedding

If you are redoing a teenager’s bedroom then you, of course, have to get some new bedding to match the theme. There are many types of bedding you can get, some personalized, which according to the folks at VisionBedding.com can be very cool, or just perhaps some from the shop. The benefit of personalized bedding is that you can have any image, phrase, or pattern on the bedding, which can make it unique to your teenager. If they do not want that, then be sure to pick up ordinary bedding that matches the theme.

Paint

You will, when redecorating, likely need to paint the walls. You may also be wallpapering them. Be sure to only paint and wallpaper in a way that your teenager would want you to, though. If you just go ahead and paint it a color that they do not like they will be very resentful. You will definitely need to repaint the bedroom before redoing it, for teenagers are notorious for destroying their walls, whether it be drawing on it, knocking into it, or punching it in one of their cute little teenage rages.

Flooring

Flooring is also very important. You may want to put down carpet or hardwood, or you might just want to get them a rug. Ask them first, as with everything. Do not spend a fortune on the carpet if your teenager has somewhat adventurous interests, such as painting, or anything to do with bugs! Teenagers and carpet can be a recipe for disaster – the two just do not go together at all. Only invest in a carpet if you are sure your child can be trusted and will not destroy it, costing you a fortune.

Electronics

If you are redoing your child’s bedroom, it is worth investing in some up-to-date electronics. Teenagers and electronics go hand-in-hand. We live in the 21^st-century, which is an age of technological marvel and innovation. There are a ton of fascinating and awesome electronics that you can introduce into your child’s bedroom, which will be greatly appreciated. Whether it be a new television or any other piece of equipment, we can guarantee you will not need their approval for this aspect of our list – just do it. Be sure they will not break it, though, some teenagers are clumsy!

Fish Tanks and Other Accessories

When I was a teenager, I had an unhealthy obsession with lava lamps. Friends of mine, with fish tanks. Teenagers all have little quirks. It seems, actually, that teenagers these days are in love with terrariums! Be sure to introduce a quirky little accessory into your child’s bedroom for them to enjoy and give them something to do when they are not playing on their phones, computers, or out with their friends. Getting them a small pet will also give them responsibility, which will benefit them in later life.

In this article, we hope to have told you how you can design your teenager’s bedroom. We hope that you have found this article enjoyable, educational, and informative, and we really hope that it helps you to redecorate your child’s bedroom. Thank you for reading, folks, good luck!
