#instaworthy Teen’s Bedroom Tips and Ideas

For teenagers, privacy and independence are two of the most important things in their lives. It is because of this that their bedrooms have become their ultimate, go-to sanctuary.

Their bedrooms serve as their private spot where they can chillax and be themselves. As teenagers tend to retreat more and more to their personal enclave, decorating and personalizing their rooms become important for them.

Here are some tips that you can use in decorating your teen’s bedroom:

TIP 01 Suit their style

As soon as kids reach the age of 13 to 16, self-identity and self-expression become very important. Make this decorating experience an avenue for your teen’s self-expression. This decorating activity can also doube as a fun bonding experience for you and your teen. Make sure to get #stylecues from them when decorating their bedrooms. After all, it is their OWN personal space that’s being decorated (and not yours).

Here are some teen bedroom inspirations

TIP 02 Harmonize with colour

Your teen might want to colour their entire room black, or pure pink. While you want to let them express their style, you should still make sure that your teen’s room is conducive for studying and relaxing. Now, how can you compromise if your teen wants a goth-inspired room or a fiery red room? The answer is simple: Colour harmony. Make sure to have elements that your teen wants and blend it with calm, neutral colours. This way, your teen’s #roomgoals can be achieved, without compromising the functional vibe of the room.

Your Teen might have a favourite team and asks you if he can paint his entire room blue and yellow. Compromise by using his favourite team’s colours as accents but still maintaining a nice, neutral colour in the walls for a calm, restful vibe that’ll get him rested for the next game. — Your Teen might have a favourite team and asks you if he can paint his entire room blue and yellow.

Your teen fashionista might be into the whole im-from-fashion-that’s-why-i-wear-black phase and she want to paint her entire room black -- something you’re most likely never going to agree on. Compromise by making an accent wall done in black, but everything else would be neutral. For added style and cool points, complement the room with coloured accents and wall decals/prints to make the room fashionable and chic, yet still bright, airy and clean. — Your teen fashionista might be into the whole im-from-fashion-that’s-why-i-wear-black phase and she want to paint her entire room black — something you’re most likely never going to agree on.

For added style and cool points, complement the room with coloured accents and wall decals/prints to make the room fashionable and chic, but still bright, airy and clean.

Your teen might be studying French at school and she’s suddenly into Parisienne chic. She asks you for a Moulin Rouge inspired room. You say its not practical. She says “BUT MOMMMMMMM”. Compromise and get her accent pieces that screams “Oooh La la” French — like a cool red chandelier or vintage French posters. Your Teen can still show her style and be practical at the same time.

TIP 03 Make their room #snapworthy

Kids these days love to express themselves through social media. Help them create a #snapworthy room by using statement pieces that can serve as focal points for the room. A bold poster perhaps? Eclectic light fixtures? Or why not get them a bed frame that’s hip n’ cool?

Here’s a cool idea: paint one wall of your teen’s room with chalkboard paint and let him or her use it as a mood board, a doodle space or a space to write reminders. It’s fun, cool and is guaranteed to get major #instalikes. — Here’s a cool idea: paint one wall of your teen’s room with chalkboard paint and let him or her use it as a mood board, a doodle space or a space to write reminders.

Maybe she liked Dora the Explorer before. Now that she’s a teenager, she might’ve dropped the full bangs and the cutesy backpack of her toon idol; but that doesn’t mean her love for travel and adventure is gone. Use elements of travel and adventure — such as a vintage globe, old travel mementos and other travel-inspired accessories to reflect her “world-traveller” dreams. This #stylecue will score major #likesforlikes!

TIP 04 Order in the room!

A teenager’s life is one that’s full of action. Their time is filled-up with study groups, piles of essays, assessments and other activities. Chances are, they won’t have the time to keep their rooms tidy. Instead of screaming at them to fix their rooms, streamline their rooms with multi-functional bedroom pieces that can serve as both storage and beds… That way, they’ll have plenty of room to stack their personal belongings and make it easier for them to put things in order.

TIP 05 Lean on me

Latest studies show that teens spend an average of 11 hours startng in front of a screen daily. That’s a lot of screen time. Teens would often use their gadgets or watch TV from their — you’ve guessed it – beds. If possible, get them beds with headboards so they’d have something good and sturdy to lean and rest on. You’d be hitting two birds with one stone if you give them a bed frame that’s both stylish and functional.
