my bedroom is painted royal blue with white trims - what color sheets and comforter would look the best?

Q. larger room with a medium-dark orange colored carpet...need ideas for colors for my bedding.
I didn't choose the orange carpet--it's an old farm house that i am renting and that happened to be the color. I'm more focused on matching the bedding the the wall color.
The wall color was also there when I moved in - my bedding is white right now and I want something else.

A. blue & brown are the hot color combo right now, so that would look very modern & elegant.

How can i decorate a boy's room in shabby chic style?I wnt to decrate my house shabbychic but how abt my boys?
Q. Shabby chic is like understated elegant designs, white walls, delicate flower prints and faded pastels. Furniture made to look old and recycled. Similar to french country and cottage designs but more toned down with whites.

A. You can still have the same cottage type feel, but use more masculine colors and patterns. A child's bedroom does not need to be in exactly the same style as the rest of the house.

I would go for more of a pottery barn look in a boy's bedroom. You could use a black painted woods, or a darker stain. Pottery barn also has some adorable fabric patterns for boys that still have that cottage charm without being feminie. If you can't afford Pottery barn, look at their website or catalog for ideas, then shop around. Target has alot of similar items for less.

If your son is old enough (not a baby), decorate around his interests, and allow him some input on what goes in his room. That doesn't mean he has to have cartoon character sheets and bedding, and wall posters. It does mean he can have things he likes, and enjoys in his room.

Have fun!


What color should I design the other room incase my family stays there?
Q. What's are some ideas on designing some empty rooms in the house? What should he make it into since it's?
not occupied?




suppose only one bedroom is being occupied right now which has a zen theme


and one room was made into an exercise room

A. For a guest room:
First, decide what color you would like to paint it (unless you want the color it is). Don't do pink or purple because that is a girl's color, and as you are probably expecting not just girls in that room, make sure it's a color that any one of your guests would like. Obviously don't paint it black, or even gray. Guys might like one of those colors, but girls won't! Also, try not to paint it too bright. Although some guests might like bright colors, some might find it weird. So try to stay away from bright yellow, orange, or red. That pretty much brings it down to the basic guest room colors: light blue, tan, maybe light green, white, any thing along that line would do. And decorating it is important. You want the room to look elegant, yet homey at the same time. Don't add too much furniture, but enough for the guest/guests. Please remember that you want make sure that YOU are happy with the room. Make sure that it will please most people, but make sure that you like the room. If you don't and pay all of this money for furniture, you go through painting it and all of that, and you end up NOT liking it... well, that would be like a huge waste. So, make sure you are happy with it (although don't base everything just on your taste) and that others are happy with it, and that you have fun!!!

For other room ideas:
A sewing room (if you sew), An attic type room where you just store all of your stuff, A craft area (if you craft), A play room for kids (if you have kids, but it sounds like you don't), Just another lounge type area with maybe a futon for guests, a nice tv and bookcase, And pretty much whatever fits your need.
Have fun and don't stress about it!!!
