Decorating Ideas for a Teenager's Bedroom With Purple and Black Zebra Stripes

Bedding

• Faux fur throw pillows, zebra print sheets with purple comforters, zebra print dust ruffles, and purple canopies create an oasis of style for your teenager. A reversible comforter or duvet with purple and black zebra stripes on one side and solid purple on the other lets you mix and match sheets, pillowcases and throw pillows for endless style.

Furniture

• Paint furniture with zebra stripes for a trendy and unmistakable style. Furniture can be easily repainted in a variety of patterns or colors to change seamlessly from one style to another. Use silver paint to accent the lines between purple and black or white and black stripes and add detail. Upholstered headboards with plush zebra print fabric trimmed in purple or silver add a finishing touch.

Wall Decor

• Iron zebra print fabric directly onto walls for an unexpected and fun way to add style to the walls. Stenciled zebra patterns in silver and black or purple and silver add details like names, sayings or shapes such as flowers and swirls. Vinyl decals made from contact paper create frame shapes that accent switch plates or window frames, and wooden initials or shapes covered in scrapbook paper make inexpensive but trendy accents for any teen’s bedroom.

Accessories and Accents

• Decorated switch plates, ceiling fan or dresser pulls, patterned curtains and finials add finishing touches to the room decor. Unexpected bursts of color like lime green or bright orange complement the overall color scheme while accenting the space. Use scrapbook paper and embellishments to accent lampshades and picture frames.
