20+ Under The Sea Decorations For Your Little Mermaid’s Bedroom

The Little Mermaid is arguably one of Disney’s most popular animations, especially now that it was also turned into a live action movie.

Ariel and her friends are so charming for kids. Mermaids have all the magic normal Princesses don’t. They have glittering tales, the ability to move freely on both earth and water, and they can make friends among sea creatures as well as humans.

It is no wonder then that little girls dream of being mermaids, right? But while they could never have a shiny, shapeshifiting tail, they can definitely get a beautiful and whimsical Under The Sea themed bedroom, courtesy of their doting parents.

What do you need to achieve this theme? That’s what you are about to find out with this article. Read on to enjoy these Under The Sea Decorations For Your Little Mermaid’s Bedroom.

DIY Scallop Accent Wall For Mermaid Bedroom

A teal scallop accent wall is a must in any little mermaid’s room, as it mimics both the waves and the scales of a mermaid’s tail, whichever way you prefer to look at it. You can achieve the effect with tiles or with a painted gradient, created either by hand or with the help of a stencil. via weheartit

Mermaid Tail Mural Art

This is much more of a literal take on a mermaid accent wall. This one was painted either freehand or with a stencil using shades of purple over a pink wall. A giant mermaid sticker or cardboard cutout would be much easier to install and remove when the mermaid phase passes, though.

DIY Mermaid Pillows

These mermaid scale pillows are incredibly cute and impressive, but not that difficult to make. All you need to do is create scales in different shades of the same material and then either sew or glue them over the original pillowcase to create the scaled gradient effect you in see in the picture. via lovethispic

The whole thing was tied off with twine and finished with a seashell. via apumpkinandaprincess
