Beach?!?!?!?!?

im working on my bedroom at a vacation house at the beach, and i would like to know what i can do to decorate it,





i cant paint, (existing tan), and the carpeting is dark brownish, there is a chest of drawers, 2 nightstands, (matching maple) a bed (no headboard) and 2 dark bronze(?) lamps with white lampshades, im going to buy this bedspread,

what can i do to give it a beachy theme without changing out any furniture???





the room is kinda small, and theres a small window that looks out onto the front covered porch so theres not alot of natural light.





ANY IDEAS ARE WELCOME, IM A TEENAGER AND THIS IS A SECOND BEDROOM TO BE USED FOR GUESTS ALSO.|||small mat beside bed in same color scheme as bedspread; clear glass vase on chest of drawers filled with shells and sea grasses or flowers; scallop shell to hold small items or loose coin; driftwood item or lifesaver ring (or a picture of one) to hang on wall; big colorful child%26#039;s sand bucket to use as waste-basket; plain white board for headboard, with seaside paper cut-outs (fish, shells, boats) as decorative edging; small boat or ship-in-a-bottle on chest of drawers as an ornament ........ etc.|||paint it like baby blue|||u could put seashells on the head bored





and pics of a beach on the walls|||hang some cute curtains in the windows, and if you%26#039;re allowed to hang stuff on the walls get a cork board and tack up pictures from magazines or pictures of your friends. you could also hang a mirror on the wall or the back of the door and decorate it with mirror-writing markers they%26#039;re only like 8 dollars.|||Can you get some beach pictures? Or a fishnet and/or seashells? Some little fishnet floater glass balls?|||This website might help you...

Paint or stain the furniture a lighter color, if your parents will allow it





Hang some netting on your wall behind your bed.
