1. Sea shells, starfish, bamboo, bright flowered fabrics, hibiscus flowers and tropical plants are all beachy, Hawaiian items. You might be able to find some inexpensive silk flowers to string and make a swag for over a mirror or door. Glue some shells to a picture frame or mirror and hang it. I would try to find a surfboard or a piece of plywood shaped like a boogie board and paint it. A philodendron, either silk or real for in a corner. You might even find a fake ficus tree you can put in a corner and hang some white lights on with some silk flowers.

2. Hawaii is well known for its fabric with bold floral prints. The flower you will see used the most is the hibiscus. Prints of this and other flowers are available in a multitude of color combinations from red and black to green and purple to earth tones. Different leaf motifs are also popular. These are great fabrics to use for your bedding and window treatments. The key to using these bold fabrics is to pick a fabric and stick with that as the only Hawaiian pattern in the room. Combine it with solid color fabrics with varying textures that coordinate. Furniture for your Hawaiian bedroom should be lightweight and simple with clean lines. To make a unique headboard for your room, nail bamboo reeds of varying heights to a piece of plywood. Use the same bamboo reeds to hang your window treatments. For extra seating in the bedroom, use wicker patio furniture. Choose landscapes of the sunrise and still life studies of flowers when purchasing wall art for your Hawaiian bedroom. A creative wall treatment you can make is to simply staple a piece of Hawaiian fabric to a picture frame. You can also mount several surfboards to your wall for instant wall art. Petroglyph Art, an ancient form of carved art is available in prints and is a nice accent to add to your Hawaiian themed bedroom.
