Decorating a Kids Room Using Black Chandelier Bedding & Chandelier Wall Decals

71

By Pro Design Source

These days a black crystal chandelier is a graphical statement. Damask & chandelier prints are everywhere. Find them on bedding, wallpaper, removable wall stickers, pillows, and clothing. Especially popular with the younger crowd – it is the iconic mix of rock-n-roll and glam.

This look is used frequently when designing for pre-teen or teen girls who want something a little more edgy. The black chandelier look tends to satisfy their need for something not too fussy but still glamorous. Parents are happy too because the black is just an accent and can be easily replaced in a few years.

The ultimate look is to use a crystal black chandelier light fixture in order to bring that wow factor into the room. There are a few important details that need to be taken into account when using a black crystal chandelier as a focal point.

  • For the most dramatic effect, use one in an all white room. The darker the paint color in the room, the less noticed the chandelier will be.
  • Don’t use a chandelier print if you use the actual black crystal chandelier. It will distract from the main focal point.
  • Work damask, scroll, or floral patterns into the other elements of the room.
  • Bold, bright colors bring drama to the room. Bright yellow, pink, green or purple all hold their own in glam rock room.
  • If you don’t use an actual crystal chandelier, then bring some sparkle into the room with other pieces. Mirrored furniture or accessories and beaded curtains are two easy ways to do this.

No Black Chandelier? Use Wall Stickers

These days we are lucky to be able to find really cool wall decals to add graphic details to a room. Before these kinds of details were very difficult and costly to add because they required you to hire a professional mural painter.

Inspired by the scrapbooking community, these wall stickers can be found in many shapes and even quotes.

Rock & Roll Wall Appliques


Check out the black chandelier, damask, scroll, and floral decals that you can use to rock out any room.

  • Use them above a bed - especially if there is no headboard.
  • Use smaller ones on plain mirrors to dress them up.
  • Use a quote above a window instead of a valance.
  • Don't overuse the chandelier graphic.

Can't replace the light, or use wall stickers? You can also decorate your bedroom with chandelier bedding to create the rock & roll look for teens. Remember, a little bit is all you need when it comes to defining this style.

Chandelier Bedding

  • Add these beautiful pillowcases to a bed with simple white bedding, and you've defined the style immediately. Easy to change out when the time comes, and no work installing a chandelier light fixture!
  • Go a little bit further and buy chandelier bedding. This set in neutral tones will look amazing in a pink, purple, or yellow room.
  • Throw this little pink pillow on the bed or a chair to add some flair to your room.


Black Chandelier Accessories

In order to create more interest in a room, you want to layer patterns, colors, and textures. With this theme the best patterns to mix and match with the black chandelier graphic, is a damask or floral scroll.

Use a black and white damask print fabric for curtain panels, bedskirt, or even a slipcover.

Posters are a classic element to any teenagers room. Choose some that emphasize the glam and the rock side of things. Mix it up! Black & white rock band posters work well in this design.

Mirrors are another essential element to any teenagers room. Mirrored furniture would work really well in this kind of sugar and spice room.

Lamp shades are a cheap and easy accessory that can be another way to work a print into the room.

Elegance personified! Nothing more sleek and sexy than a black crystal chandelier. Great advice on the 'wow' factor and using bright colors to enhance the design work. Impressive hub.

Those wall stickers are awesome! When we bought our new house, it has two chandeliers - both are brown - bronzy type - but they look great.
