Teen Bedroom Ideas: Hidden speakers

April 17th, 2012 | Posted by ideaqueen in Teen Bedroom Ideas - (Comments Off)

Got a small room? Don’t want to take up precious desk space with an iPod speaker dock?

I’ve found a couple of interesting ideas for hiding speakers in the room. That don’t require you to do any wiring. Yeah!

The first one is headboards from Homelegance like the dark brown speaker  headboard in the picture. They also make them in sports themes like football, basketball and soccer. The speakers are double-mounted with adjustable volume and compatibility with just about any MP3 player. Oh – and check out that little pocket in the side to hold the player!

Next up is the Ellery Sound Asleep Comfort Pillow with Built-in Speaker. Mouthful, huh? It’s an interesting idea, actually. A speaker inside a pillow so you can listen to whatever you want as you fall asleep. I thought surely that would be uncomfortable, but a lot of people in the reviews said it was actually really good. Sound quality is great and it’s generally a good pillow. Nice.

The pillow comes with detachable 46″ stereo cable plus, so you can use it with just about anything, including a TV. Wow. (Great option for the person who wants to listen when the other person doesn’t.)

Kids Bedroom Ideas: Fun pillows for the room

February 14th, 2012 | Posted by ideaqueen in Kids Bedroom Ideas - (Comments Off)

Pillows are a great way to add fun and whimsy to a kid’s bedroom – not a lot of size, not a lot of expense and not a lot of commitment. Which makes them a great way to set a theme or just have some fun.

Had quite a few catch my eye lately as I’ve been shopping around.  I must have been hungry because the first group were all food related. Hmmm.

The whole pillow hunt started when I ran across the tie-dye fries pillow. Isn’t it adorable? It’s meant as a camp autograph pillow, one of a ton, and comes with a pen so friends can leave messages. (Or maybe so you can tell him to clean his room!) The ice cream sandwich “YummyPillow” comes from DCI, which actually makes some other yummy options like sushi and pizza. You can also indulge a sweet tooth with cute pillows like the apple Jolly Rancher one; candy pillows come in everything from Reeses to Twizzlers.

Moving from food to animals, I found these interesting ones called Get Me Out Pillows. The one in the picture is Sad Dog Sniffy, but there are orcas and dinos and even a happy dog available. The square pillow folds out to make the animal, then folds back in to make the pillow. Cool!

Kids' Throw Pillows: Hand Knit Blabla Blue Throw Pillow   Kids' Throw Pillows: Kids Green Hand Knit Throw Pillow People

Moving over to some hand knit options, these guys come from The Land of Nod. The first is part of the Hold Me Tight line, which includes this blue with tear pillow as well as a pink with bowtie and smile and gray with mustache and tiny hat. Or you could go with the Pillow People. You have four choices there, the green-haired one in the picture, orange hair in pigtails, dark skin with black hair and even purple hair.
