Looking for a new room theme? Turn your bedroom into a Paris getaway with some of these inexpensive ideas! 
Picture
Color scheme- the typical colors for a Paris themed room are pink, white, and black! This doesn't mean every item in your room has to be these colors but try to stick to this color scheme as much as possible! If you are painting your walls look for a light pink.

Picture
Curtains- some long curtains can really add to your room! Pick out a pattern that fit the color scheme and has a good design. These Paris curtains I have in my room are black and white and have swirly designs and chandeliers.

Mannequin- Add the Paris love of shopping with a mannequin! You can find inexpensive mannequins like this at stores with room decorations such as TJ Maxx and Ross.

Hair styling side table- every girl needs a spot to get ready in the morning. If you don't have your own bathroom a personal styling station could be just what you need in your room! I bought a black 3 drawer side table which I use to store make-up, hair styling tools and products, and hair accessories. You can spice up a normal black side table or stackable drawers with some pink ribbon, which can be tied into bows and hot glued on. Put your drawers next to a tall mirror!

Fragrances and Perfumes- Your room looks like Paris so why not smell like it too? Bath and Body Works has a huge variety of Paris themed scents including Paris Amour, Paris Nights, Sweet on Paris, Paris in Bloom, and even Paris for Men. You can buy perfume, lotion, shower gel, soap, glitter gel, and more in this Paris scents! And if you aren't into body things you can get candles in their Paris scents too!

French Memo Board- ditch the boring bulletin board for a cute french memo board to display photos, notes, and more. This memo board was less than $10 at Ross and matches the room perfectly! 

Picture
Rug- for all those rooms with boring carpet, lay down a colorful inexpensive rug to add personality and color! 

Picture
Wall decorations- With Paris being an extremely popular theme lately, there is so many wall decorations available! From an Eiffel tower clock to a huge Paris wall canvas you will have no trouble finding decorations. Don't buy everything and fill every inch of your wall space, but pick a few things you love most to accent the room.

DIY decorations- If you don't want to spend alot of money on decorations go to your local craft store to make your own room decor. I recently went to Ben Franklin's and made this magnetic board from scrapbooking paper, charms, magnets, and a antique-looking serving tray. I glued pieces of scrap booking paper to the tray and let that dry. Then I hot glued the charms to small magnets which stuck to the tray. I can use it to hang pictures or just to decorate my room alone. This is just one example of how you can make your own room decorations. Get creative and crafty!
