How to Decorate a Hannah Montana Bedroom

Decorating a Hannah Montana bedroom

Hannah Montana is a household name in America. Girls between the ages of 4 and 14 are joining in the craze over the secret pop star. No doubt, you know at least one young girl who's dreaming of one day becoming a pop star like Hannah Montana and is wishing for a Hannah Montana room of her own. The idea of decorating her bedroom with yet another faddish theme may have you wincing and worrying about the cost. Following these basic steps will help you give your Hannah Montana fan a room she'll love while adhering to a budget you'll love too.

Things You'll Need

• Indoor paint
• Butterfly chair (or director's chair)
• Shaggy accent rug
• Furry throw pillows
• Satin and/or sheer curtains
• Mirror (framed by lights or jewels)
• Bedspread and linens
• Bedside stand
• Hannah Montana posters
• Hannah Montana accessories

Instructions

1. 

   Choose the color palette to be used in decorating the girl's bedroom. Typical Hannah Montana colors are purple, turquoise blue, lime green, yellow and hot pink. Try to use shades of some or all of these colors in the decorating scheme of the room.

2. 

   Paint the bedroom walls with one of the selected paint colors. Remember, wall color sets the backdrop for the entire room so it's wise to select one of the more neutral shades. The majority of the bedroom's patterns and colors will be added through the use of accent pieces and Hannah Montana accessories.

3. 

   Choose a bedspread and other bedding to compliment the decorating palette of the bedroom. Keep in mind that Hannah Montana's style is glittery, glamorous, funky and bright. Select a satin bedspread in a solid color and mix it with coordinating patterned sheets. Toss a few furry pillows on the bed to complete the look.

4. 

   Accent bedroom windows with satin or sheer curtains. For a glittery touch, hang curtain with small sequins or beads sewn on them. To add more color to the bedroom and draw attention to a window, try layering a sheer curtain underneath a satin one in two coordinating colors.

5. 

   Bring accent pieces into the bedroom. Furniture such as director's chair or butterfly chair offers functional yet stylish seating. Add a small stand to house essentials such as a reading lamp, CD player, and alarm clock. Select a colorful shag or faux fur throw rug to add color to the bedroom floor. Also, be sure to include a mirror in the girl's room. No wanna-be pop star or budding actress should be without a mirror in which to primp or practice her performances.

6. 

   Finish decorating the Hannah Montana bedroom by mixing in a few of the girl's favorite Hannah Montana pictures, posters, wall art and other accessories.

Tips & Warnings

• To add an extra punch of color to the room, try painting one wall, baseboards and window frames, or closet doors in a second color from your chosen palette.

• The secret to incorporating complementary yet affordable pieces into the bedroom is to be creative. Find an old stand and repaint it in bright coordinating colors. Make your own stylish throw pillows from leftover or inexpensive fabric. It's all about the colors and the textures, not the prices.

• Avoid over-decorating with expensive Hannah Montana products. Girls tend to change interests every few years. If you've based your entire room design these items, you'll soon be stuck with the work and expense of redecorating the whole bedroom. Instead, use basic furniture, bedding, and curtains in the room and add accents of Hannah Montana products (posters, pillows, wall art). These items can easily be removed and swapped with new accessories when it's time to update the girl's bedroom.
