A Bedroom Fit for a Teen!

Late last year, I put together a room concept for a 13 year old girl who was in the very lucky position of being able to move into a bigger bedroom. Time to personalise it! She wanted fresh and fun colours without it being too fussy, and definitely no pink! It also has to last her through her teen years, so enough scope to easily add to or edit from the room at a later date, if desired.

After working through some various colour and fabric combinations, we settled on using some of the fantastic fabrics from US Textile Designer, Caitlin Wilson.

Here is the board -

This is the room before work started -

The scheme was implemented over the long summer holidays and this is how the room looks now -

An upholstered slip-cover for the bed head was made using a fabric from Warwick Fabric's, which reduces the amount of wood in the room and adds another layer of texture. The chunky deep yellow throw is from Freedom Furniture and will be perfect when the chilly nights set in!
