Bedrooms Ideas |
Teen
bedrooms are for more than just sleeping.
Study.
Socialize. Sleep.
Socialize.
Teens have a spirit of their own so why not let
them express it! What better way than to let them
decorate their bedroom! Teens do more than just
sleep in their bedrooms. They socialize, study,
and dream. |

Sleep |
Choosing the perfect
bedding for your teen can be both a fun and
daunting task. Here are a few quick tips:
- A reversible
comforter in solids is perfect for
versatility in design. Accent pillows
in a multitude of colors and textures
can be swapped out easily, transitioning
from design to design.
- Check out our Teen
Girl’s and Teen
Boy’s Bedroom Themes for great
ideas that will be sure and match your
Teen's sense of style.
- When choosing furniture,
consider its future. Will your Teen take
it with them when they leave home? Or,
is it mom and dad's new furniture too?

| Tips
for Creating a Teen-Friendly Study Area
- Work Area: Make sure
your Teen has plenty of room to spread
out their books without being cramped
for space. A drafting table is a perfect
WorkCenter solution, providing plenty
of room.
- Lighting: An adjustable
clamp light can stay out of the way and
provide the perfect
lighting.
- Organization: Besides
utilizing book shelves, shop for rolling
storage bins that can be kept under the
desk or in a closet when not in use.
- Comfortable: Have your
teen shop with you for a desk chair that
is comfortable for them to sit in, even
during late night study sessions.

Socialize |
  |
We're sure your teen loves
to socialize! Whether it is hanging out
with friends, studying for the big test,
or the day’s latest gossip session.
You can create a great space for "teen
business".
- If space permits, consider the functionality
of a futon (above). While providing
seating during the day, it turns into
the perfect sleepover solution.
- Limited on space? Recent years have
brought back floor pillows. When not in
use you can stack 'em or store 'em.

Play |
  |
| Whether it is board
games or baseball
bats, you can keep your teens playthings
organized yet easily accessible.
- A video center (above) can
keep all their gaming equipment in one
spot.
- Under-the-bed storage bins are great
for board games as well as video games.
The bins not only provide a storage
solution, but also add protective element.
- Is there sports equipment everywhere
you look? Try a sportscenterto get things
together!

Relax |
| Sometimes Teens
just want to escape from it all and their
bedroom is the perfect spot.
- Purchase a chair of their own to sit
back and kick their feet up.
- Place their bed against a wall and use
lots of pillows to create a couch-like
effect.
- Also try bean bags, floor pillows, and
butterfly chairs.

Entertain |
| The latest CDs are out and
your Teen must have them! You'll find them
in the car, under the couch, everywhere!
Their MP3 player is lost and their headphones
were crushed by dad. What can you do? Organize!
- Entertainments Center:
Purchase an entertainment center that
will do the job, but not take up too much
space.
- CD Wallet: Purchase
a CD Wallet so your teen can have easy
access to their favorite tunes. A small
wallet is ideal for the car, while a large
wallet can be used when space is limited.
Place discs in the large wallet and pack
the cases away.

your teen's bedroom and see clutter everywhere?
Today's storage solutions can solve the
problem and keep your teen happy too! There
is an endless amount of storage options

anymore! Check out storage solutions that
you and your teen will love! Storage ottomans,

the cool storage products your teen will
love.

traditional shelving, wall mounted stereo
shelves, over-the-bed shelves, and other
options especially when floor space is
limited.

you scared to open your teen’s closet
for fear of an avalanche? Consider purchasing
a closet
