Girls Polka Dot Bedding

Like almost any decor decision, there's a choice of any given design's size and polka dots on bedding are no exception, as they betray to different personalities.

Color also plays into your space, as darker hues in darker spaces can depress the whole vibe in your girl's bedroom and that's not at all the restful, relaxing ambiance you aim to achieve, I'm sure.

Small polka dots, also referred to as micro dots played up against a white or lighter background like this purple polka dot comforter set, here are ideal for darker bedrooms with little or no natural lighting.

White serves as a reflector, bouncing light about your girl's bedroom space, making for a much happier vibe.

Start with a bedding set like this happier lavender polka dot on white quilt set and you're off to a great start in your low-light space.

To keep you darker space brighter, consider going for sheer panels as window treatments. You'll get a measure of privacy while keeping the light streaming in.

This deep purple and blue polka dot comforter set is high-energy, indeed. It's quite the opposite of the quiet bed sets above and will certainly be the room's attention-grabber.

Purple has the 'power' to soothe (as with the comforters above) or supercharge any space lacking in luster with its majestic hues. With just a few shade differences, you can dramatically alter a bedroom's vibe, its energy.

Consider how hip --or not-- you want your girl's room to be and proceed accordingly with your purple bedding.

This deeper, mystical purple polka dot bed set is ideal for tween and teen girls' bedrooms.

Don't you agree?

Note how the model room here, plays off the circle. The polka dot black and white comforter set is the spaces focal point, it's true but the hot pink accents save the space from being foreboding and not the fun space you're after.

The round hot pink rug is a good play off the polka dot's circular design and the wall art is primarily round mirrors, so it's clear that circles are the predominant shape.

This black and white polka dot bedding is a great pick for tween to teen girls, as they're at that age where drama is a must--in everything, so it's no surprise they'll appreciate black more than we adults would like.

Go ahead and humor them but balance the space with fun, happy hues and strong patterns. Trust me, you'll both be happy--unless they insist on black walls.

I'm lovin' the fun with these colorful polka dot bedding sets, don't you?

Just as you love these friendly and wildly fun polka dots, they can quickly become the bane of your existence if you let them run amok in every nook and cranny of your girl's bedroom.

Ideally, you want your bedding to steal the show, capturing and keeping the eye on its splendor for just a bit longer than a glance.

Too many similar, 'matchy-match' pieces and you'll take away the bedding set's energy with every polka dot piece you add.

See the model room at left, here? It's just on the cusp of 'plenty of polka pleasantry' to 'over-the-top polka dot shop.'

This arrangement quickly becomes a game of "Spot How Many Polka Dot Doodads There Are."

Try to envision the same bed set without the accessories flanking the bed and you'll get an idea of how 'strong' the focal piece can be.

Corral the dots or you'll have a cluttered busy look that rivals wayward socks--not at all the peaceful abode you're aiming for.

Indeed, with polka dots, less is more.

Decorating isn't fun for everyone and while I can't relate to that notion, if you're one that has 'better' things to do, it's bedding sets like this pink and white polka dot comforter set like this one that has a long lifespan.

When bedding is intended to be a part of your girl's bedroom for quote a while, you'll need to change out to age-appropriate wall art and the occasional accessory, lest your girl start a relationship with the family's PC printer.

Posters make a great budget-friendly choice for wall art. Buy standard sized posters and frames in size 36" x 24," this way, you won't have to ditch the frame when a new poster is purchased; just pop the old out and in with the new. Easy-peasy.
