How can I decorate my room in a beach/tiki theme?

Question

I'm going to be living in a student residence (single room) and won't have much to work with. The room itself is long and somewhat narrow, as opposed to short and wide. I'm not allowed to paint the walls or anything, so I'm looking for decorative objects and stuff that I can physically place in my room.

Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks!

Ebay has a lot of tiki items for sale. Also look up items online by the artist Shag.

I'm in Southern California and there are quite a few stores here that sell tiki items.

You can also line your walls with bamboo screens. World Market or Pier 1 would be good places to look. At the beginning of summer even Target had tiki stuff.

how about go to sea side shops and you can buy shell wind chimes and mermaid figurines e.c also you could go to the beach and collect shells and stones to make decorations i would decorate the room in bright colours and add flowers and maybe seaside pictures   if you need anything i'm here to help  x
