If you love color, especially in a teenage girl’s bedroom, you’re going to love this!
This room was madeover to reflect the personality of a 13 year old teenager. It’s fun and vibrant – just like her!
It isn’t a very large room at all, but is packed full of everything you might expect to see in a teenage girl’s bedroom.
It’s a great example to show you to go along with my post outlining how to decorate, add style and storage to a small bedroom.
This girl loves bright colors and little bit of sparkle and glam!
There’s gold foil paper in the tissue paper garland above the headboard, gold metallic dots on a throw pillow and gold foil writing on some of the art in her gallery wall.
The tufted bright pink headboard is a pretty backdrop for a variety of fun throw pillows.
This exact headboard is no longer available, but I was able to find several simalar ones.
The heart of a thirteen year old girl is priceless to me. I remember being that age when friends were everything – this young lady is no different!
She’s slowly been adding to the gallery wall beside her bed, with the most recent additions being handcrafted birthday presents from some of her friends.
When trying to come up with decorating ideas for a teenage girl’s bedroom, we found inspiration in the form of a pretty teal blue braided rug. I’ve never seen one quite like it.
Her mom had been on the lookout for a rug that would be suitable for a teenager’s room for a long time.
She was after an 8′ x 10′ rug that was A) easy to clean and care for, B) durable, C) affordable and D) reflective of her daughter’s personality.
This exact rug is no longer available, there is a very similar one that is super affordable and comes in a myriad of sizes.
When she asked for my opinion on what type of rug she should get, I immediately said an indoor/outdoor one.
She was concerned about the comfort factor of an indoor-outdoor rug, but I encouraged her to give this a braided rug a try and it did not disappoint!
Braided rugs are often cushy underfoot and easy on the knees when crawling around on the floor.
Color was the theme of the day, so once the rug and headboard were in place the rest of the room easily came together.
Her mom’s own bedroom furniture, that she had herself as a teenager, was updated with a fresh coat of white paint.
To save money, they reused the same hardware, but gave it a coat of black spray paint.
Inexpensive lamps were updated with thrifted teal blue lampshades and an old wood jewelry box was given a coat of apple green paint for a pop of color.
One thing this small bedroom lacks is storage. It has a very small closet, but for stylish storage we added cute hooks with crystal knobs to the wall to hold purses, hats and other paraphenalia.
TIP: When you have open storage, be intentional with the items that you choose. They will be on display along with the rest of the decor in the room!
The desk is a Facebook Marketplace find that gained a new lease on life with paint and a cute chair.
The bulletin board is actually a thrifted mirror frame that has been painted black.
The frame was used to trace a cutout that then had cork added to it and covered with a coordinating piece of fabric.
Plain curtains can be tailored to fit in with any color scheme by simply adding wide grosgrain ribbon to the edge with fusible iron on tape.
One more thing to take note of is the chandelier. It shows just what can be done with an old brass chandelier and a can of spray paint!
I hope you enjoyed this tour and found lots of ideas to use from this colorful teenage girl’s bedroom. It was so much fun to put together!
What a cool room! Miss M. Is a lucky girl!
Love the bright colors and I know Miss M. is happy with it… great job.
I just love that rug, pulls the whole room together !
Such a perfect blend of a young girl’s desire for bright colors and the need to feel cozy and grounded. Glad you did a close up of the rug. It is versatile as well as pretty. It could easily grace a casual foyer, beach house, porch, nursery, playroom or gender neutral child’s room. I wish I had access to your blog when my daughter was that age.
The rug in the teen’s bedroom is a real eye-opener! It not only ties the room together, it’s sharp corners are a perfect contrast to all the soft edges in the rest of the room!
Love the room it is so beautiful and gives me a lot of inspiration for my daughters room!! The colors blend beautifully together in the room love the light sea foam green especially.
I’d love to see their rugs in person – it’s great to have an indoor-outdoor rug that is actually soft!
Wow! Love this gorgeous room and rug!
Thanks for the giveaway, a rug is a powerful addition to a room as a pop of color or as a focal point. My front porch is in dire need of a sturdy rug.
Love your blog! The room is beautiful!
Love the room and especially the rug! I would have loved to have that room when I was a teenager! Thanks for making me aware of Rug Expedition! They have a great selection of rugs!

What a beautiful room and the lovely rug helps tie it all together. I appreciate your review as I would also be concerned about the comfort factor of an indoor/outdoor rug, but you have convinced me to consider something like this. I truly enjoy reading all of your blog posts….thanks for the great content.
