The owner of this bedrooom quotes "I was a lot more beige once upon a time but a trip to Australia stopped all that."  I love it when a recent trip spurs you to make changes in one's everday life!

Bedding Down By The Seaside - Custom Nautical Beach Themed Bedrooms For Kids

What child does not love playing on the beach? If your child loves to romp in the surf and sand, then why restrict his fun, only a few short summer days that you and your family can maintain itself, next to the shore? Why not transform your children's bedrooms in a beach fantasy that they can enjoy their lives every day.

A beach theme fantasy bedroom is easy to generate. Color of the ceiling light sky blue, punctuated perhaps with billowy white clouds, and lit with a large,bold lighting, the glossy, shiny SO emulated. Dot the ceiling glow in the dark stars, planets, comets, meteor showers and other phenomena, and when all the lights out.

Brush the walls of a deeper blue with white highlights of the spray and high waves, with pictures, highlighted by dolphins, violations of whales, seals, sea turtles, seagulls and other ocean life and surfing, parasail, water-skiers and other ocean - enthusiasts.

And by the waythe other life (human and others) populate the typical beach scene, you can also use the picture of the colonization custom beach theme bedroom with stuffed animals and marine décor with surf boards, boogie boards, water skis, inflatable boats and water pipes and other water sports implemented.

The floor of the room, now can be divided into two parts: half in wood, ceramic, vinyl tiles, carpet or a beige or floor mats, leaning against the shoreline, and covered the other halfcovered in plush blue carpeting or floor mats reflective, where the water meets the shore.

The focus of all the bedroom is, of course, the bed. And in the center of a user-bedroom beach would be about a custom theme bed in the shape of a structure built generally on the sandy shore to see (like a bungalow or adorable thatched hut) or swimming in the ocean (like a yacht, a sailboat, a rowboat, or a cruise ship).

The display shelves on the walls of the space in the specially constructedTheme bed, and / or the surfaces of the various complementary furniture in the room, you can collections of shells, coral display, and hourglass. These ornaments also good when, on the borders of bonded mirrors, picture frames, and even on the bed itself its own theme.

For more details, which may, at the meat from the imagination of a beach umbrella for shade and privacy, authentic beach furniture, with false stones, rocks and steep cliffs of the deep. Ample soft cushion typea feeling of floating on the water, and sheer, billowing fabrics reminiscent of the constant light breeze. Can work a little fountain add to the meaning and sounds of running water, and filled an aquarium with tropical fish or goldfish successfully on the addition of an element of the full life of your child's private banks.

Finally, you will have enough beach toys for hours of fun on the beach. Every day is a day the beach, if your child lives in a custom beach theme bedroom.

Check out my guest post over at dwellings and decor

Rachel over at dwellings and decor was one of my first blogging friends, so I was very touched when she asked me to guest post while she's on her fabulous honeymoon.

Spring is being a tease up here in NYC. It’ll be a lovely 64 degrees one day and then we wake up in the morning to find it’s turned 38 degrees and rainy. Needless to say lots of us are suffering colds, sleepiness, and other ailments that come with rapid weather changes. However, to keep the optimism and hope alive, I turn to light and airy interiors for some cheering up, and those with generous splashes of green seem to be best at bringing a smile to my face….

I really like the look of the crisp black and white pillow and blanket against this pale green…
