Q. i want my room to have a kind of earthy and tribal feel, an example would be cady's bedroom from "mean girls". from the movie i've seen that she has light orange walls, a big wooden bed, a big poster of africa...

any other ideas that i could use? thanks.


Answer
Natural materials like plants, rustic wood furniture, and unbleached fabric are ideal for a safari bedroom theme. Look for silk or real plants such as grasses, palms, succulents, or colorful flowers to make a fresh statement in African style rooms. Choose furniture pieces made of dark, exotic woods with simple, rugged designs. Organic fabrics like linen, cotton, jute, and burlap will add a lot of texture. Animal prints are enormously popular in safari bedroom themes. Striking animal prints can be used in small doses for a subtle effect or used in all over the bedroom for a stronger design statement. Wild animal prints can be found in fabric, wallpaper, bedding, throw pillows, and rugs. Choose from a wide range of safari style patterns and textures including zebra, leopard, jaguar, tiger, giraffe, cheetah, alligator, and ostrich. Get your African-inspired retreat off to the right start with a substantial wooden headboard or bed frame. Add some zest with animal print bedding such as a bed skirt, comforter, pillow shams, or duvet. Top off the bed with a romantic mosquito net in white or ivory for an exotic yet elegant ambiance. Safari style accessories and wall décor will add a lot of charm and interest to a safari bedroom theme. Look for handcrafted African items like tribal masks, wooden sculptures and carvings, shields, pottery, drums, woven tapestries, or baskets. Woven bowls and bamboo accents will also add punch to a safari bedroom theme. Fresh flowers or potted orchids bring in soft color and aroma for a relaxing environment. Dress up rustic wooden or tile floors with safari style rugs made of natural fibers such as sisal, jute, or seagrass.
