How Your Bedroom Can Get A Palm Tree Theme Look Without Buying New Furniture

Using themed accessories in your bedroom is an important way to pull together a decorating scheme with a palm tree theme.

When you buy a new outfit it is greatly enhanced with jewelry, scarves and purses for women and ties for mens suits. Your bedroom décor is accented by lamps, rugs and artwork! You can add style to your bedroom décor with a few inexpensive accessories.

If you need ideas on what accessories you need for a palm tree theme look it is a good idea to look in magazines, books or the internet to get a flavor of the accessories you would like to see in your bedroom. To keep the palm tree theme decor consistent, you need to stick to only buying those accessories you have determined you need to complete the look of the room.

Color choices for a palm tree theme décor are tropical and earthy. Palm trees are green and brown so most of your accessories will be in this color but it doesn’t hurt to throw in a bright yellow or red piece here or there for contrast.

Use prints and bedding with palms on them as well as figural palm tree lamps and other accents that will help bring out the palm tree theme in your bedroom. For best presentation you should group an odd (rather than even) number of accessories together. Use different sized objects for added interest. For example use different height and texture candles for a grouping.

You should decorate your bedroom walls with artwork that enhances your palm tree theme decor but they wont look right unless you hang them correctly. Most people hang wall décor too high and the rule of thumb is the picture should be hung so that the middle of the picture is at eye level. You can use a large painting or a tall mirror behind the bed as a headboard. Use a mirror that is very tall for a dramatic effect! Hang your palm tree theme themed pictures seven to ten inches above a table. Try to align pictures in different geometric shapes (vertical circular triangular or rectangular groupings) in various sizes for a different effect.

Lighting is an important element in accessorizing your bedroom. Lighting creates ambiance and should coordinate with the palm tree theme theme you want to create. Adding lamps that are shaped like palm trees or lamps with palm tree print shades can be a great way to enhance your room.

Area rugs can also enhance your décor. Make sure that you rest furniture on the rug to achieve a better effect. Of course you will want to buy rugs in colors that go with your palm tree theme accessories.

Use many pillows on the bed as this can add a splash of color in a bedroom. Vary the colors and patterns of the pillows but always keep within the colors of your theme.

Don’t forget to have fun! Shop around for different accessories to bring out the palm tree theme theme in your bedroom. Try antique stores, consignment shops or flea markets for ideas. Craft books often have great ideas for stuff you can make from flea market finds. Just like the right scarf can make an outfit your accessories can make your bedroom. Use your gut feeling and enjoy the creative process!
