Use a single theme when choosing jewelry. This will make the process of finding and making decorative items easier.
It is worth taking into account the interests and hobbies of the child, but do not forget about functionality and a sense of proportion.
It's better to ask general direction in design, choose minimal content, and encourage the creative impulse of children, allow them to develop the design and decorations for their new room.
Bright interior elements will be appropriate against a neutral background; an excess of flashy shades will negatively affect the mood.
If your teenager loves black, don't be alarmed. Suggest using natural or fake diamond and forged items. But the black and white palette of minimalism is suitable for children at least over 16 years old. This basic palette will be complemented by natural colors of wood, glass, and brick.

Decor for a teenage boy's room

A teenage boy’s room should not only be functional, but reflect his individuality and attract attention among his peers.

You can use interior pillows and poufs in the form of soccer balls or a field with markings, cobblestones, car wheels, a game console, with funny quotes and other pictures of interest.

A wall map, for example, in the form of a three-dimensional puzzle, will decorate the room. On it, the teenager will be able to mark places he has visited or plans to visit.
Depending on the boy’s interests, you can decorate the room with models of airplanes, the globe, ships, etc.
Brings zest to the interior LED lights, laid behind shelves in the form of curves, as well as behind decorative elements in the form of a balloon, the sun experiencing an eclipse, an airplane, a smiley face, etc.

The size of the future composition is important. A bulky drawing in a small room “presses”, it will be difficult to discern the meaning. The most attractive element of graffiti is the beauty of the line.

After all, home is not just a place where we satisfy our vital needs, but a kind of extension of our individuality. There are many design ideas, but we have selected 12 of the most beautiful options DIY room decor that everyone can implement on their own.

1. Garden in a bottle or florarium

Flowers in pots look very cute, but to add a unique touch to your room, we suggest going a little further and putting a garden in a bottle. This is an amazing solution that allows you to grow fancy plants that would not survive under normal conditions.

An airtight container with a minimum amount of air creates a humid atmosphere, ideal for certain types of flora. These include: calamus, royal begonia, bromeliad cryptanthus, pellionia, common ivy and others. When choosing plants, be guided not only by their external properties, but also in height - it is necessary that it matches the dimensions of the container.

Any glass container with a neck that can be easily closed and convenient for “planting” plants can serve as a “home” for the garden.

So, first you need to fill the bottle with drainage material and soil. Think over the composition, then use a spoon with an extended handle to dig holes. Next, use two sticks to place the sprouts in them, and after compacting the soil, spray them. The florarium is ready!

2. Geometric shelves

Sometimes it's better to give up massive bookcases using simple compositions in the interior instead geometric shapes. Due to their brevity, such shelves will fit perfectly into any design without causing any difficulties during creation.

They are made like ordinary shelves - from smooth fiberboard or wood boards, and thanks to unusual shape do not require additional decorations to attract attention. Also, to diversify the design, you can, for example, hang the structure on a hook. Just don't put breakable items there.

3. Decorate the wall with nails and threads

No matter how strange such a phrase may sound, decor made from nails and threads is a really existing trend called stringart. This solution is suitable for decorating walls, furniture, boards. At the same time, creative people have room to expand - you can not only come up with any composition, but also randomly twist the strand, creating a unique piece.

You will need threads, nails and a base into which to drive them. But before starting work, you need to come up with a sketch of the composition, clearly highlighting the main lines. Following them, they are established metal hooks, between which a strand passes.

There are many options for drawings: words, silhouettes, signs, abstractions and even detailed paintings with a varied palette of colors. The main thing is that you won’t find the same decor anywhere else.

4. Coat hooks made from cutlery

Why not give old spoons and forks that are not fit for direct use a second chance by turning them into practical element decor? With the help of simple manipulations, cutlery will become unusual coat hooks in the hallway, attracting the attention of guests.

Give curved shape a metal object can be done using a hammer or a vice, and for installation on a base it is enough to nail the part with a regular nail.

Forks whose tines are directed in different directions look interesting. With some skill and the necessary equipment, you can engrave names or simple patterns on hooks.

5. Ottomans from old magazines

And although today the main sources of information are the Internet and television, more recently people learned about areas of interest in life from magazines, of which dozens have accumulated in many homes since then. Instead of throwing away waste paper, we suggest making a comfortable ottoman out of it.

Such a piece of furniture, in addition to magazines about gardening or construction, consists of wooden base(which you can make yourself from joiner's board), pillows and two old belts holding the entire structure together.

It is recommended to select publications of the same format, but even different ones will look very original. At the same time, depending on the appearance of the elements and the theme of the magazines, the ottoman will fit into a modern or more vintage interior.

6. Lampshade made of threads

It happens that you go to a store to buy a chandelier: there seem to be a lot of options, but the prices are steep, and the models presented do not fit into the interior. If you want to decorate your home with something unusual, you can make a lampshade with your own hands using only yarn, glue, plastic film and a balloon.

The balloon must be inflated and wrapped plastic film, and on top of it - with threads, leaving a small hole. Next, glue is applied to the workpiece; after drying, the base must be removed. The final stage is connecting the electrics to the lampshade.

This lampshade can be used for both a chandelier and a lamp. Try not to overdo it with threads - the design should be strong, while leaving gaps. White yarn is suitable for modern interior, and multi-colored ones will create bright accents.

7. Curtains for doorways

In rooms where, to save space, it was decided to abandon doors, light septum You can use small curtains or curtains. Moreover, there are many design options, so incorporating such an element into the interior design will not be difficult.

Instead of a whole one, even if transparent fabric, it is better to opt for curtains made of ribbons, felt beads (for a cozy atmosphere) or glossy details collected in a chain (this will add a little gloss).

Creating such a product will not be difficult, the main thing is to decide on the material and color scheme. The partition is usually installed on a mounted crossbar, which ensures easy movement if necessary.

8. Possibilities of decorative tape

Scotch tape can not only glue paper, but also create aesthetic geometric compositions in the interior. It is much more convenient to use, and the variety of colors and patterns only expands the possibilities of decoration.

Paper tape is more suitable for modern design, in which so unusual solutions look most organic. Using tape, you can, for example, outline pieces of furniture, diversify plain surfaces, “write” words or phrases, and even carry out zoning.

You can also decorate smaller details, such as vases or photo frames, fortunately modern market products presented different sizes. It all depends on your imagination, as well as the capabilities of the room.

9. Decoupage in the interior

Probably many have heard about this simple aesthetic option decor, only in the context of small crafts. But with the help of napkins and glue, you can easily decorate larger objects, creating a unique atmosphere in the interior.

Decoupage is used to decorate smooth surfaces of furniture, tiles, and glass. The pattern depends on the style of the room: for example, floral patterns are suitable for classics and Provence, newspaper clippings can be used for loft, and bright combinations of various pictures can be used for pop art.

For this work you will need: an image on thin paper, PVA glue, degreasing agent and acrylic lacquer to securely fix the decor on the item. It is better to practice beforehand, as careless application may leave bubbles or other marks.

10. Garlands for every day

Glowing lights are not only a New Year's attribute. They can also be used for everyday decor, creating real magic in the room.

Garlands turn into a kind of night light if you place them in a glass container, such as a jar or vase. You can also hang them on the headboard, but lights on canopies look even more impressive. Just remember to be safe and make sure that the adjacent material does not heat up.

Garlands mounted on the wall look good with Polaroid photographs, highlighting them beautifully. When fitting such lighting into the interior of a room, it is important to maintain the line between festive design and everyday design.

11. Mirror frame with lighting

This type of mirror is called make-up mirrors, as they provide maximum illumination for stars while applying makeup and are often used in their respective rooms. But even in a residential area, the illuminated frame has found its place, becoming a popular design solution.

The item can fit into the bedroom, but it looks best in a modern bathroom. To make the product you will need wooden frame, lamps, wires, and electrician abilities.

Please note that during installation it is necessary to use lamps daylight, since ordinary ones create a lot of heat.

12. Candles in the interior

Of course, electric lighting is much more practical, but candles are unlikely to ever lose their mystical charm, continuing to act as an independent decorative element.

But using several candles in the interior is too banal. We are talking about a whole composition that will fit, rather, into classic style, bringing into it the romance of ancient castles.

This lighting looks amazing when displayed in several rows and placed on a separate shelf. For greater effect, you can hang the support from the ceiling, carefully choosing a safe place - jokes with fire are bad, and dripping wax can cause inconvenience. But this is where the disadvantages of such decor end, because a lot can be forgiven for its spectacular appearance.

Place the base from sheets of whatman paper so that it is convenient for you to work with both sides of the paper. You can place two chairs at a distance from each other so that you place the ends of the Whatman paper on the chairs, weighing them down with books or something heavy so that the Whatman paper does not fall.

By using stationery knife make two cuts in the paper, thread a ribbon into each of them so that a strip of ribbon remains on the front side, and both ends are on the wrong side: leave one end small and attach it to the paper (with glue or double-sided tape), the other is longer if you want to continue this weaving, or attach it too if this drawing is finished.
Repeat the previous steps until Do not fill the entire Whatman paper with paper embroidery patterns. In this case, the cuts do not have to be strictly opposite each other, and the lines do not have to be even. Take the ribbons different widths and make your own design.
