You don’t need me to tell you that black and white polka dot bedding is eye catching and cool. But polka dots alone can be rather limited in their decorative abilities in teenage girls’ bedrooms.
For a polka dot print to truly live up to its potential, a DIY decorator must be savvy enough and have a sufficient level of experience in the combination of patterns to pair polka dots with other fabrics.
Before you toss in the towel and give up on your plans to decorate your bedroom in dots; allow me share a few decorating ideas that will give you professionally decorated results without the pain of a steep learning curve.
The first tip would be that a set of black and white polka dot bedding does not constitute a bedroom theme. Break things up with black and white striped walls, black wallies on a painted white wall or something in a toile print. So long as you stay in keeping with the monochromatic black and white design there’s little you can do that will result in a decorating disaster.
Once you have the basics of the black and white bedroom design in place, it’s time to add a few pops of color. The great news is that black and white comforter sets give you lots of leeway as far as what color you might want. BUT, you should select one and at the very most two accent colors. That’s the worst of it. The best thing is that those colors can be as wild and funky and over the top as you want to make them.
Fuchsia and hot pink is a favorite with tweens and teenage girls for their bedrooms. But don’t rule out lime green, teal or turquoise or even orange. Black and white polka dot bedding when properly accessorized is suitable for girls from high school sophomores to sorority girls. The broad range of appeal is crucial for getting as much mileage from your decorating dollar so if you are a frugal person, an inexpensive black and white polka dot bed in a bag might prove to be one of the best decorating decisions that you could ever make.
