Jurassic Park Dinosaur Themed Bedroom Decor Ideas for Boys

Jurassic World 5pc Full Comforter and Sheet Set Bedding Collection
Looking to create your very own pre-historic bedroom adventure park? Well how about making a Jurassic Park or dinosaur themed bedroom? This theme is a lot of fun and allows for some really unique looks and creativity. I've trawled the net for all of my favorite Jurassic World bedroom decor ideas so you don't have to, so let's get stuck in!

Jurassic T-Rex Dinosaur Bedding
First up, you will need some bedding. There are a couple of pieces of official Jurassic Park and Jurassic World bedding out there, but they go out of stock quickly, so if you see one you like, be sure to pick it up quick. I recommend the collection at the top of this page, which includes a reversible comforter, a flat and fitted sheet set and two matching pillow cases.

Universal Jurassic World Dino
Experience Microraschel Blanket,
If you don't mind venturing beyond official merchandise, above is a simply stunning piece of realistic T-Rex art print bedding that looks simply incredible. The matching pillowcase for it is available here. There is an abundance of other unbranded dinosaur bedding out there that would look amazing in a Jurassic World bedroom: you can find more of my favorite bedding for boys and girls here.

If you are looking to a budget alternative to buying a full dinosaur bedding set, a good trick is to match your existing bedding and sheets with a colorful dinosaur Jurassic World blanket like the one on the right. Just spread it on, and voila! 

The matching sheets you see in the picture on the right are available here, and you can get the same design on a comforter right here.

24 Piece Glow in the Dark Dinosaurs
Wall decals are a perfect way to liven up the walls of a dinosaur themed bedroom, and there are some fantastic murals of all sized, many of which look as as if the the dinosaurs are about to burst out of your walls. The 3D look is very effective! You can also get yourself some official Jurassic World decals are available here.

Another cute idea is to buy some glow-in-the-dark dinosaur stickers to decorate your walls with, such as the ones on the left. That way even when the lights are out you can still bask in the beauty of the Jurassic era. 

Kids Novelty Lamp with Green Fabric
Shades, Green Dino in Brass Finish
Speaking of things that glow in the dark, looking for some cool dinosaur themed lighting? The lamp above is a pretty magical piece, and it's easy to replicate at home if you have some plastic dinosaur toys, a spare lamp, a glue gun and a bit of time. There are also a couple of accessories you can buy to decorate your existing lighting fixtures too, such as a t-rex ceiling fan pull and dinosaur light switch plates.

Brazil Furniture Waterfall Back Child Recliner - Stellar Rex
If money is no limit, you can even splash out on some original dinosaur-themed furniture for your bedroom. I particularly like the camo-style Stellar Rex recliner featured above: for a more budget option, check out the matching bean bag chair available here. There are plenty more pieces out there, especially for younger kids, such as dinosaur bed head boards, toddler bed frames and bookshelves.

Jurassic World Velociraptor "Charlie" Figure
Finally, finish off your bedroom with some roaring dinosaur accessories to make it personal to you. These could be anything, including Jurassic World curtains, tin signs and wall clocks. Pretty much every dinosaur from every Jurassic Park film is available in figurine form, including from the most recent Jurassic World film: Delta, Echo, Blue, and the terrifying Indominus Rex. 

Paisley Themed Bedroom Decor Ideas for Adults

If you are looking to decorate your bedroom with a new pattern that brings a traditional but colorful flair to the room, why not go for paisley bedroom decor? To save you time trawling the internet, I've gathered all my favorite paisley bedroom decorations into one place for you to check out. Let's take a look!

Aubrey 12 Piece Comforter Set
First things first, you will need some bedding to form the centerpiece of the room.

Paisley bedding is available in a wide range of colors and styles, from minimalist and simple design like the Ann Harbor bedding, to intricate and bold bedding sets like the Echo Sardinia bedding on the left.



Ashley Furniture Paisley Gallery Wrapped Canvas Wall Art
Paisley Allover Stencil Pattern
Reusable stencils for DIY decor
Next up, there are plenty of ways in which you can decorate your bedroom walls in a paisley style. If you are handy with a brush, for example, you could use paisley stencils like the one on the right to produce an amazing paisley pattern on some or all of your walls. Alternatively, you could put up some paisley wallpaper.

If you are going for plain walls, be sure to put up some art work to add some flair. There is a wide array of canvas art which you can get, such as the beautiful Ashley Furniture Paisley canvases featuured above. 

You can also get paisley shaped wall decals, which are easy to apply and remove without leaving marks on the wall, plus you can arrange and rearrange them however you like.

Lush Decor Floral Paisley Slipcover/Furniture Protector for Sofa, Blue

Blue Paisley Chest
If the lid is off the budget tin and money is no object, you can go really all out and get yourself some amazing furniture with paisley patterns on it. On the more inexpensive side, there are various slipcovers for your existing furniture that you can get, such as the sofa slipcover above, or the matching armchair cover. Here's another chair cover that will make a brown, red or cream color scheme.

If you are willing to splurge a little more, take a look at the gorgeous Malange Accent chest on the left, a demure and subtle piece with an amazing paisley design. Other luxury paisley furniture items include this relaxing loveseat, this accent chair, a vanity stool, and this minimalist white ottoman storage cube.

Orian Rugs Paisley Patron Multi Area Rug
Ellis Curtain Paisley Prism Jacobean
Floral Lined Duchess Filler Valance
Lastly, finish off the room with some beautiful paisley bedroom accessories. If you have bare floors then there are a variety of paisley rugs out there in a range of colors and styles to match your room, such as the Orian Patron rug above. You can also get curtains and valances if your windows are looking a little bare,

Perfect Paisley Figurine
How about populating your bare furniture spaces with some pretty figurines? Pavilion has a whole range of paisley themed figurines like simply beautiful woman featured on the left, with lots of different styles: fairies, angels, water globes, crucifixes and hanging ornaments. Check them all out here, and pick your favorites!

Beach Themed Bedroom Decor Ideas

Harbour House Crystal Beach Bedding
Looking to bring a breath of fresh air to your bedroom? Why not choose a refreshing sea breeze to lighten up a dark and stodgy winter room or bring new life to the summer. It's bright, it's cheerful, and it is a very popular theme for master bedrooms all over the world. This is my guide to all of the best bedroom decor for pulling off the look!

 Seashell Beach House Nautical King Quilt, Shams & Toss Pillows (6 Piece Bedding)
Seashell Beach House Nautical King Quilt, Shams & Toss Pillows (6 Piece Bedding)
First of all, you will need some beach themed bedding to form the centerpiece of the room. There are many different styles available, from shell themes, tropical artwork and sandy palm tree themed pieces. On this page are just a few of my favorites, and you can find more incredible beach themed bedding here.

Kona Comforter Set
By far my favorite piece of beach bedding is the Harbor House Crystal Beach collection featured at the top of this page, a bright and modern design which comes with a comforter, a bedskirt and two pillow shams. I would pair it with a white set of sheets or any shade of blue. You can also get a similar look with a more rustic feel with the Seashell Beach House bedding above, which comes with a quilt, two pillow shams, a three beautiful decorative throw cushions.

Palm tree bedding is relatively common, coming usually in a green and white design or a sand-color. I much prefer the sand colored beddings, and out of those, I recommend checking out the Kona Comforter set! You can get the matching sheet set for it here.

SZ HD Painting Canvas Print for Home Decoration, Framed, Stretched
If you are painting your room to match the theme, there are really three ways to go. The classic look is a light pastel color, such as a sandy beige or a baby blue. Alternatively, for an ultra-modern look, shades of white look great with darker furniture. Lastly, for something seriously bold, bright summer colors work very well, such as neon blue, bold orange or a sunny yellow. 

Sealife Shadow Boxes Seahorse
Starfish Shell Seashell
Vinyl Wall Decal - May You Always
Have a Shell in Your Pocket
and Sand in Your Shoes
With the walls painted up, have a couple of choice wall decorations add personalization to your wall space, but don't go overboard. The simpler and more realistic the decoration, the better for this theme. 3D art work with simple color schemes like the Sealife Box Art above works very well, regardless of whether you've gone for demure or bold colors on your walls. 

Froomer Nautical Fishing Net Seaside
Wall Beach Sea Shells Decoration
There is also a lot of 'real' art out there, the sort that incorporates items you might actually find on the beach, such as proper shell art or the unique and interesting fishing net hanging decoration featured on the left. They are a wonderful way to bring the magic of the seaside into your home. You can even make your own shell art if you have access to shells: check out this handy book.

I always recommend decals when it comes to decorating bedrooms, as they are a great way to change the look and feel of a room without having to make a permanent decision: no marks if you want to take them down! My favorite decal is the quote and starfish art on the right: it's very cute and calming.

Santa Cruz Wicker and Rattan 4 Pc. Bedroom Set
Shell Two Door Cabinet
If money is no object, why not go all out and replace all the furniture in your bedroom with something a little more apt? The best materials for beach bedroom furniture is wicker and rattan. My favorite is the wicker look, and above is a whole set of bedroom furniture that fits the theme perfectly. You can get a wicker storage cubby to go with it too if you need even more storage space.

If rough wicker isn't your thing, go for wooden furniture. Driftwood can look lovely with light bedding and decorations, but I would avoid it if you are going for very bold colors in your walls or bedding. Light white woods also look beautiful, like this gorgeous distressed bed frame or the incredible two door storage cabinet on the right. 

Sarasota Seashells Rug
Seashell Frame Mirror
Last but not least, it's time to add those finishing touches to the room with some little bits and pieces, like rugs, mirrors, curtains, clocks, and so one. A must have is some fake or real shells to use as ornaments on your cabinets and shells, and you can find some lovely looking ones here.

Beyond that, the sky is the limit. I've included a couple of accessories here - if you went for the two door cabinet above be sure to get the matching mirror for it on the right too! I also love the seashell rug featured above.

Curtain Chic Seashells
Lace Swag, White
As well as these, other fun accessories that I like include a scrap wood-style waste-paper basket, these cute wall hooks shaped like sandals and this cute beach themed picture frame to immortalize all of your favorite holiday memories. Pick your favorites, and be sure to shop around to ensure you find everything you need and want to make your room perfect.

So there you have it! That is my guide to decorating a beach themed master bedroom. I hope you found some great ideas and have a lot of fun decorating. If you enjoyed this post and would like to see more, be sure to check out the rest of my blog for all of the best themed bedroom ideas on the net!

Hey gals! We've already had my guide to decorating a Frozen themed bedroom, but that only showed you a few examples of the amazing array of Frozen themed bedding out there. That's why I've decided to collect even more of my favorites here for you to check out! To start us off, above we have a beautiful piece of bedding depicting Elsa and Anna standing against the snowy backdrop of Arundel. Each set comes with an insane amount of stuff too: a comforter, a flat and fitted sheet set, two pillowcases, a sleep-mask and two sheets of glittery stickers! Awesome!

Above is one of the best-selling Frozen bedding sets on Amazon, and for good reason. With a colorful blend of pink, purple and blue it can match many wall colors, plus it looks so very pretty. Any girl is sure to love it! You can get the matching sheet set for the Frozen Celebrate Love comforter here, and that comes with a flat sheet, a fitted sheet, and a reversible pillow case with two different designs.

The flower pattern and the pale pinks and blues make for a very light and airy bedding set that is sure to add life to your bedroom. Each set comes with everything you need: a comforter, a flat and fitted sheet set and two gorgeous pillow cases.

Disney Frozen Warm Heart Microfiber Comforter
If you want something that is more suited to the winter but isn't too frosty, then take a look at the Warm Heart bedding set above. I love the art style of this collection, it is very romantic and elegant. The sheet set for this comforter is available here. It comes with a flat sheet, a fitted sheet, and the two great pillow cases you see in the picture. Cute!

Disney Frozen Nordic Florals Comforter Set with Fitted Sheet
If your room uses a lot of deep shades of pink as part of its color scheme, I highly recommend choosing the bold and eye-catching Nordic Florals bedding set above. It is such a lovely design, with delicate flowers and lots of feminine swirls and flicks reminiscent of Elsa's magic. With every set of this bedding you get a comforter, a fitted sheet and the matching pillow sham.

Frozen Perfect Day Bedding
If the above is overloading you with the pink, then fear not, because there is an abundance of bold blue Frozen themed bedding out there for you to choose from too. My personal favorite is the lovely Frozen Cartoon bedding above, which comes with a quilt cover, a sheet and two pillow cases. 

Disney Frozen Olaf Build a Snowman Microfiber Comforter
So far these bedding sets just haven't had enough Olaf in them, and we can't do without our happy little puddle of snow! That's why I've included the cool blue Olaf 'Build a Snowman' comforter above. The matching sheet set for this bedding can be found here. It comes with a flat sheet, a fitted sheet and a matching pillow case.

Purple Frozen Toddler Bedding
Last but not least, if you are shopping for a mini-toddler sized bed, then there is no need to feel left out - just pick up the lovely blue Magical Sisters bedding above! I love the color scheme on this bedding; it has a very watercolor style to it that is very cute. Each set of this amazing bedding comes with a bedspread, a fitted and flat sheet, and a standard sized pillowcase.

Harley Quinn Themed Bedroom Decor Ideas

Batman Harley Queen Clown Woven Tapestry Throw
Hey there sugar! Are you looking to decorate your bedroom in the style of the lovely, bubbly and sexy bundle of joy that is Harley Quinn? She's by far my favorite of the Batman rogue's gallery, and I own tonnes of Harley themed bedroom decor. This post is for all my fellow Harley-maniacs out there looking to do the same. Let's take a look at what I've found!

Custom Sexy Woman Harley Quinn Rectangular Pillow Case
Custom Pillow Case, Harley Quinn
The bed is the centrepiece of any bedroom, but sadly there aren't any official Harley Quinn bedding collections out there that you can just pick up and go. Boo! Have no fear though, there are alternatives. If you pick up some plain red or black sheets, you can pair them with a cute Harley Quinn print throw like the one above or this comic art style throw,

With the throw in place, you can finish off the look with some Harley Quinn decorative pillows and pillow cases. These are much more common, in both more realistic styles akin to the video games, like the one featured above, or more comic book art styles like the pillow case on the right. You can pepper the room with a few red and black checkered cushions too to add to the flavor. These match the overall color scheme and theme very well in my opinion. Mix, match and experiment and you are sure to get a great result.

Harley Quinn Batman Arkham City Fabric Cloth Rolled Wall Poster Print
Harley Quinn: Arkham Knight Decals
While Harley Quinn bedding may be sadly lacking, wall art certainly is not. There is a wide array of posters available out there featured different styles of Harley Quinn art. My personal favorite is the very enticing rolled wall cloth poster up above. It's absolutely gorgeous! You can find other amazing posters here. Also, be sure to check out the cool Harley Quinn: Arkham Knight wall decals on the right - they can be arranged however you like and are easy to apply and remove.

Black Bubble Clock
In addition, you can add some very useful pieces of wall art in Harley's signature red and black colors. I particularly like the black bubble dot wall clock on the left, for example. It's super cute!

It's not just accessories you can stylize to the theme - why not change the walls altogether with a lick of paint or wallpaper? In terms of wall color, I would advise choosing red or a gothic grey rather than black, as black can make your room look small, dark and cramped, which would ruin the overall effect and make you feel a bit depressed! If you are really in love with the idea of black black walls, check out this black and white striped wallpaper - the combination of black and white stripes is very Harley and gives the room a much lighter feel.

Funko POP Heroes: Harley Quinn Action Figure
Harley Quinn Arkham Asylum
Life Size Cardboard Standup
To finish off the room, you'll need some awesome accessories to decorate shelves and surfaces and other such like. Figurines of Harley are plentiful, you can find a whole range of them here. If you like your figurines to have a bit more utility, check out this cute Harley Quinn ornament style piggy bank. Crime's gotta pay at some point, right?

Beyond ornaments, there are plenty of other Harley Quinn decorations out there. I particularly recommend the cute Arkham Asylum stand up on the right - it's life sized! Finally, to cover every base, you can even get Harley Quinn light switch covers.

So there you go! That's my guide to decorating a fun Harley Quinn themed bedroom. I hope you found some great ideas and have a lot of fun doing up your new room.

Disney's Inside Out Themed Bedroom Decor Ideas

Disney Pixar Inside Out 5pc Full Comforter and Sheet Set Bedding Collection
Disney Pixar's Inside Out is my favorite movie of the year, and with it's colorful aesthetics and bubbly characters, I think it makes the perfect theme for a kids bedroom. This post is going to be looking all of the great Inside Out bedroom decor ideas out there and how to put it altogether into something that looks amazing. Let's get started!

Disney/Pixar Inside Out "Rainbow Patchwork" Comforter
Disney / Pixar INDSIDE OUT
Sadness Pillow Buddy
First of all, the centrepiece of the room is the bed, and so far Disney have released two very beautiful sets of Inside Out bedding that you can pick up. The one at the top of this post is my personal favorite - it's so bold and colorful! Each set of this bedding comes with the comforter, a flat and fitted sheet set, and two pillow cases.

As for the second one, I love the patchwork style to the design, it has a very unique and feminine feel that is bound to make any bedroom look amazing. You can get the matching sheet set here, which comes with a flat sheet, a fitted sheet and a matching pillowcase.

A fun addition to any piece of bedding is a few extra pillows, and in this instance there is a real treat out there - pillows shaped like the actual characters! On the right is Sadness, and you can also get Joy and Anger.

Inside Out Burst Peel and Stick Giant Wall Decals
Disney Inside Out LED Canvas Wall Art
If you are painting your walls a new color to match the scheme, then you have a wide array of choices available to you. The five colors of the main characters, light yellow, sky blue, red, purple and green all work great, though I think yellow and blue are your best bet since more of the decor features Sadness and Joy prominently.

Once your walls are looking lovely, you'll need some art to hang up! There are quite a few wall decals featuring the characters from Inside Out, such as the cool one featured above. Another fun decal style to use are polka dots like this, which can be used to make your room look just like the inside of the HQ! You can also get some pretty nifty canvas are - the one on the left actually lights up, which makes it a very unique piece.

Disney Pixar Inside Out Collapsible Storage Trunk
Disney Inside Out Storage Cubes
Dis you know that you can also get Inside Out themed furniture? If you have a lot of clutter to store, above and on the right are some pretty fun options with some lovely Inside Out character art. The ones on the right are great as they are suitable for boys and girls. Beyond official Inside Out merchandise, you can get a lot of furniture that matches the theme as well. I recommend going for lots of bold primary colors, like this table and chairs set (or this one for older kids) or a few of these cuddle chairs. Here's a colorful and eye-catching book rack that would also fit the theme.

Inside Out Small Figure Joy
Disney Inside Out Window Panels
Finally, finish up your room with some cute accessories! Figurines are a fun one, like the colorful Joy figurine with light up Memory Sphere. You can also get Sadness, Anger, Fear, Disgust and Bing Bong in figurine form too. You can also get some cute Inside Out character plushes to pile up on your bed: here's Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear and Disgust.

You windows can look a little bare without some curtains, and there are some official Inside Out curtains, featured on the left. I love the pattern, it's very bold. 

So there you go! That's my guide to decorating your room in the style of Inside Out. I hope you found everything you need and have a lot of fun decorating.
