What are good teen bedroom decorating ideas?

Q. Im a 14 year old girl and Im looking for a little something to spice up my room. I recently got a new bedspread with bright pink, blue, and green. But besides my bed, everything else seems so dull. i could use some girly-ish things on my wall, floor, and/or desk. Im kind of on a budget so nothing to pricey please. Thanks! :)

A. You can create an entire theme for your room with paint, which is one of the easiest ways to decorate!
Perhaps you could try a Picket Fence Stencil and do a "white picket fence" around the room, then using flower stencils and a little creativity, create your own English Garden.


any ideas for an almost 5 boys bedroom (who is crazy about cars and any vehicle really)?
Q. we need decorating ideas...the room is a bit small, but has floor to ceiling windows with a sea view. he looooovess cars and the color blue.

A. you can paste a full wall picture (high resolution) of a view from a racing car on one wall... it could show the dashboard and the road ahead... looks cool... and the other things can take a backseat while the concentration is on the wall... go for denim bed spreads and curtains... you get lots of shades to choose from... and they'll run well till he's into his teens... what more... he can even make shorts out of the faded curtains later!!!!


What sort of master bathroom design would go well with a bedroom like this?
Q. The fixtures in the bathroom are white, and it has a rather large window.

The bedroom will be following this color scheme:

A. I believe in light-filled bathrooms, with any décor items on the walls rather than cluttering up the countertops. That color scheme is great for a bathroom, especially if you mostly use light tones (sky and sand), with darker ones as small accents to match the strong blue and brown from the bedroom. Make your blue very pale, though, and go easy on how large an area you give it, or else the blue reflections will make it difficult to judge your makeup colors accurately.

A two-color scheme for the towels is ideal – brown for him, turquoise for her. I'd suggest white washcloths, because they go through the laundry a lot and can fade early. At our house, for each person we have two large bath towels, two hand towels, and a dozen washcloths, and still the washcloths run out first.

Rather than fussy curtains, you might prefer a Venetian blind or wooden shutters painted white, especially if you'll want an exhaust fan in the window during the summer.

I've been reading that a multi-light bar over the main mirror is going out of style, and wall lamps on either side are the more contemporary look. I'm sorry, but I do like my light bar.

Decorating Den is running a promotion on the Internet where the public can vote for their favorite before-and-after makeover pictures. There are categories, and bathrooms are one. Maybe you'll see an idea you like, although most of them are too elaborate for me.

Their voting site, http://iddvoting.com is open to everyone. Go to "Pick a Category".
