New Tropical Comforter by Designer Dean Miller
Surf room designer Dean Miller has designed a new beach inspired tropical comforter that is sure to bring a little aloha into your bedroom. This tropical comforter has a rich navy blue background with tonal hibiscus flowers to add a little depth to the background. Hand drawn multicolored surfboards are interlaced with classic wooden surfboards, woven in with the comforter's main woody car theme. If you take a deep whiff, you can practically smell the hibiscus flowers blooming off of this tropical comforter.
To re-create that beachy feeling, but yet keep a modern boys room feel, we used hard wood floors to accent the classic wooden surfboards in this room, and added darker furniture pieces to the room. A wood nightstand, and dark wood headboard will keep the focus of the room on the bedding. Surf themed accents will bring some color, and provide a clean look through out the bedroom. We added a night stand lamp made out of colorful surfboards, a bright hand-woven jute rug that features a woody car, as well as a woody car metal sign that we framed with some old pieces of wood, and sanded down to add that driftwood feel to it.
The main highlight of the room that brought it all together, was adding a couple of floor to almost ceiling high palm tree stencil sketches that we created. These stencils were created by using a couple of palm trees off of one of our other textile artwork pieces, taking the color out of them, and enlarging them to fit the room. We simply taped a paper copy of the artwork to the wall, outlined it, and then painted it on with black paint to create that shadow look. You could of course add a couple of coconuts, or maybe a colorful bird, but for our particular room we wanted more of a setting sun feel.
This tropical comforter is available in our web store, along with pillow shams, fabric bed skirts, and matching accessories to bring your surf room to life. Much Mahalo! Dean Miller - http://www.deanmillerprints.com
