Need help for glamorous bedroom ideas?

Q. I’m moving into a new apartment and I’m planning on decorating the bedroom in an old Hollywood glamour. Problem is, I will be sharing it with my boyfriend so the room can’t scream female. I believe I want the main colors to be a baby/light blue, white, and maybe like a tan-ish. Any ideas on where to get CHEAP items for the bedroom, or even ideas of what to decorate it with? I need everything from a headboard to lamps to little trinkets!

A. Look at Target or even flea markets. You can get great things there, you just have to look through the junk to find treasures.

I would suggest dark wood. It is not to girly, and it can be glamorous. Also, get lots of lighting with dramatic shades. it'll be nice!


Any unique fairy theme bedroom decorating ideas for 2 little girls?
Q. We are remodeling our girls' room and they are wanting a fairy theme. We already have the walls painted white with an allover sponge effect done in pink, so I'd like to mainly stick to that color and perhaps incorporate a bit of purple too. I'm looking for some creative ways to decorate using this theme. I am very crafty, so I would love to hear some DIY ideas although any other "thrifty" ideas are great too, since we are also remodeling our boys' bedroom as well and are on a strict budget. Thank you!

A. If it isn't too expensive, you can paint the crown molding the lavender or purple to add dimension. You can go to the halloween stores online now while the stuff is cheap or to Lillian Vernon and Oriental Trading Company and find the Fairy Wings that come in Costumes and Hang them above their beds or in the corner of the room.

There is this craft I made with my daughter a few years back of these flower fairies: with wooden beads as heads, pipe cleaner as bodies, and silk flowers as dresses. You can probably google it and find it easy enough but they can be hung up with fishing wire. Very cute.

Also think about painting the ceiling with a bunch of fluffy white clouds or hanging a cute chandelier you can get a garage or estate sale.

Oh yeah! I had one of those bed canopies on my daughters bed for years! Totally forgot about that!


I have this huge blank wall in my bedroom and need some ideas on what to do with it...?
Q. Does anyone have any cool decorating ideas? Or know of any websites that I might get some inspiration from?

A. try mirrors in different shapes, prints or paintings or even paint your own canvas's if you want a cheap option.
if it's a big wall, try a feature wall.
