When choosing a theme for a child's bedroom, the most important thing is to decide what your child really wants, how elaborate you want to be with the decorating, and if your budget can handle it. This is especially true with an older child, such as a young teenagaer. I have found out from my own endeavors that they will change their minds more than once, and while it is necessary for the room's occupant to decide on the theme, it is also necessary for the parent to put a ceiling on the expectations. Turning a bedroom into a skateboard park complete with ramps may not be the best idea, but a skateboard themed bedroom featuring a wall mural, or posters of skaters may look great. Your child's old skateboards can be used to decorate a wall and bedding can be easily found in this theme.

Ideas For A Girl’s Themed Bedroom
Rock and Roll Style
If your girl is an ardent fan of music, the best bet would be to revamp her room in the rock and roll style. Start by giving a dramatic look to the walls. Instead, of going for subtle colors, choose black, dark purple and red as an option. Mixing abstract colors with prints and sparkle is also fine as long as your girl loves it. Another option would be to highlight one of the walls in the room, using wall stickers and wallpapers with music theme.
Go for such bedspreads, blankets, sheets and pillows that add to the color scheme. Peg racks qualify as a great option when it comes for hanging clothes or accessorizing the room. Remember to glue old CDs at the back of your girl's bed. As for the window cover, get one that has musical notes on it, to merge it with the theme. Now, to give the final touch to your girl’s room, have a lava lamp or black light to add to the retro 70's rock and roll feel.
Classy Pink
Pink is universally known as the color of feminity. If your girl’s favorite color also happens to be pink, it would be great to style her room accordingly. Right from giving off a soft, feminine feel, pink can also be playful and cozy. If you do not want all the walls to be painted in pink, the most ideal combinations would be pink and white (classic style), pink and brown (luxurious and lavish), pink and black (chic and sophisticated) or hot pink and lime green (energetic and vibrant).
Enhance the walls by adding polka dots and ruffles. Laces and flowers would be the best way to accessorize a pretty pink bedroom. As for the armoire, get it in colors that complement the room. Make sure you replace the plain drawer pulls with crystal ones. Decorative tiebacks on windows, in pinks, jewels or glass, would be a great option. As for the lights, get a small chandelier in pink or lavender to complete the look of the room.
Dancing Queen
If your girl is a great dancer, the best bet would be style her room according to her talent. While there are different forms of dancing, ballet is a hot favorite among girls. For a ballet themed room, style the look of the walls, at first. There are umpteen wallpaper boarders or appliqués of ballerinas, in the form of ballet slippers, ribbons, bows and roses. Allot one of the walls as the 'Wall Of Fame', adorning it with the pictures of your girl’s dance performances. Make sure that every photo frame matches with the others.
One of the most important features for such a room would be the dressing table or vanity. This is because often a girl practices dance postures in front of the mirror. Make sure that the mirror is large in size and also beautifully adorned. Do not forget to create a special place for your dancer’s trophies – it may either be in the form of a display cabinet or several staggered shelves.
Cool Blue
How about giving a tropical feel to your water-loving daughter? For a girl who is into water sports, what can be more enticing than a room that reflects her taste? The first step towards creating a cool blue-theme bedroom would be to get the walls and the ceiling painted in the color. If you want to deploy two colors, go for the light and dark combination. Wallpaper with the cloud theme or water waves can be a great option for the ceiling.
The next aspect would be the bedding - make sure it is done in complementing tropical colors, such as lime green, hibiscus pink and ocean blue। Paste several framed vintage surfer posters to add to the feel of the room. As for the lights, plain lamp shades, decorated with using silk or plastic flowers, around the top and bottom rim would be the best bet. To complete the look, add potted palms or even large fake palm trees to the corners of the room.
