ninja_peng


I want to buy a book for my twin cousins. I am looking for ideas for a children's book about twins that they would love when they get older. Any ideas would be great! I am preferring one about a boy and a girl twin. Something cute so I can take a scene from the book and paint it on their bedroom wall.


Answer
The Bobsey Twins series

What are some cute twins names? And some cute ideas for twins bedrooms?




Emalee


My name is emalee and my boyfriends name is Dustin and we are having
Twins. We need help finding names and bedroom ideas I love saying and bright colors but Dustin likes the out door thems. And we are having a boy and a girl.



Answer
Just make sure the names don't match, don't rhyme, don't start with the same letter, aren't connected (like Romeo and Juliet), don't shorten to the same thing (Christopher and Christine). Name them as if they were individuals.

You could divide the room in two and decorate each half for each kid. Or have a bright color outdoor room. Strong greens and blues, for example. Sunshine yellow and lake blue.

Does anyone have any pictures or ideas for a techno-style bedroom?




adagio_75


My 15 year old sister-in-law wants to change her bedroom design from a mostly leopard print theme to techno. I want to help her but I really don't know what techno design for a room would look like. She doesn't have alot of money to completely refurnish the room so items like her leopard print area rug, leopard print lamp shades and picture frames will have to be used. Any ideas or pictures would be great.


Answer
When I think of a techno style bedroom I think of lots of fun bright cheery colors with nice white sleek backdrop. For a techno styled bedroom; you could do a modern look. Go for clean, straight lines if possible. I would go for a white or neutral backdrop with pops of color. If some new furniture pieces are in your budget look for white furniture (bed frame, dresser, desk, nightstand)or you can repurpose old furniture and paint it white. For accessories look for bright colors like orange (for a lamp; can’t afford a new lamp you can take an existing lamp, sand it down and spray paint it in an high gloss orange (or whatever bright colors she likes), yellow (picture frames, pillows), and green (pillows, vases for flowers, etc.). If she doesn’t like those colors, you can do any color combo that she will like. You can find a cheap/good looking area rug @ Wal-mart in white, but if you don’t look for white (or another color) bath rugs and connect them together with carpet tape to make a large area rug. You can also change out the lamp shades for a cheap cost or you can cover existing lamp shades with fabric to match the new room décor. For the walls you can blow up her favorite DJ album covers and frame them; or you can get vector silhouettes of DJ’s like this : http://garcya.us/blog/free-dj-vector-graphic-art/ or http://www1.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/2286211/2/istockphoto_2286211_dj_at_turntable or http://www1.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/4306917/2/istockphoto_4306917_dj_silhouette.jpg or http://www.smashingmagazine.com/images/iconsnew/bittbox.jpg http://www1.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/5671904/2/istockphoto_5671904_beach_party.jpg or images like these and have them blown up to put them on the walls. You can also blow up varying silhouettes of dancers and put them on the wall (http://www1.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/5753237/2/istockphoto_5753237_spring_girl.jpg http://www1.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/5768186/2/istockphoto_5768186_just_wanna_have ). Also music notes and headphones (http://www1.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/5481959/2/istockphoto_5481959_grunge_headphones.jpg http://www1.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/5802696/2/istockphoto_5802696_headphones.jpg http://www1.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/5881226/2/istockphoto_5881226_hand_drawn_musik_retro.jpg would be a cool option also. For bedding you can do something simple like white with a bright colored throw and pillows or bright colored bedding with white pillows and one bright colored accent pillow. Also for bedding you can do bedding in a fun solid color and do an image transfer of her favorite DJ or techno image. Hope this gives you a few ideas, good luck :)

bedroom designs for small girls image



Jessica Ca


I am moving and I have a rather large basement bedroom. I have a lot of furniture and I'm wondering how I should place it to make my basement bedroom cozier. My room is 22 by 11 feet, my door is in a corner of my room on the same wall as my closet.
Furniture I have:
-3 by 3 bookshelf
-tall 4 shelf rack
-twin bed
-bedside table
-desk with bookshelfs on top
-2 draw wide dresser
-draw high dresser
-small wooden rack
-keyboard
-56" papasan chair with 18" ottoman



Answer
It is very difficult to actually tell you how to plan your furniture in your room because I would need to know the size of each piece of furniture, but here is a Room Planner to assist you in doing it. Hope this helps:

You could also put some of these 'ducals' on the wall to make it look more cosier:

I want a green room and my bedroom is pretty small, 10 by 11.5 feet, and i want to not have to spend a lot of money. By the way i am a teen age girl so i want it to fit with my age.
thanks a bunch
i want green walls



Answer
Well, what I usually do is go to garage sales. You'd really be surprised by what you see, cause a lot of garage sales sell furnature that you can buy. Also, 99 cent spray paint comes in handy.

bedroom designs for teenage girls uk image
Q. Like I said I want to redecorate my room.
I cannot paint my walls or buy new furniture but I want to redo it with home made crafts or some cool ideas from my family at Y!A :D ♥
I am a 15 year old teenage girl.
My room is an ocean blue (light blue) color and beautiful.
My bed is a size Queen and my room is not very large. I have a walk in closet and an attatched bathroom (I was blessed :D) But It is so ordinary now and I am sick of it...I cannot really move my furniture but oh well.
My room is always messy.
what can I do to redecorate in there and make it look fabulous?!
NO PAINTING OR BUYING NEW FURNI!!!! thanks so much
p.s I am pretty girly. :D

p.s.s I dont have any pics of my room sorry. :D


Answer
Here are some DIY wall decorations.

Message Board, pushpin/tac up notes, photos, memorabilia...
Cut a large square out of box cardboard about the size of a corkboard.
To make the hanger, punch two holes 1/2 inch apart 1 inch from the top in the center,
(where a hanger is on the back of a frame)
http://www.bellababyart.com/myfiles/image/sample_sawtooth-hanger.jpg
thread the ends of a twisty tie (the paper covered wire used to close bread) thru the holes, turn cardboard over, make a loop and twist the ends.
Cut a piece of fabric 2 inches larger than the cardboard.
Lay cardboard on top of fabric and wrap to the back like a present and pin.
http://www.singermachines.co.uk/access_images/pins.jpg
(you could use an old shirt or sweater or t-shirt with a cool design or your fav band,
cut the front of the shirt two inches bigger than the cardboard)

Wall Art Panels
Cut two or three matching size rectangles about 12"x30" out of box cardboard
or out of a sheet of styrofoam. <available home improvement stores $4
Make the hanger as above, add a layer of batting and wrap each with matching fabric and hang together on one wall.
You can get remnant fabric for $1-$3 per yard at any fabric store or in the fabric section of dept. stores in every color, pattern or design imaginable to coordinate with your room.
Or you could use wallpaper or cool design wrapping paper and glue to the back.
http://www.michaels.com/art/online/projectsheet?pid=e07582

Picture collage
Cut out any size out of thin cardboard. (a cereal box works great)
Make the hanger.
Use a glue stick or a small drop of glue for each pic, you can arrange the photos side by side or overlapping.
Or make a collage cut from magazines.
http://www.creativity-portal.com/howto/artscrafts/features/2004/magazine.collage.html

Frames
Cut out any size frame from cardboard and wrap with fabric strips, wallpaper or gift wrap and glue pic to the back.
http://home.howstuffworks.com/fabric-crafts5.htm
You can frame calendar pics or print pics from the net and frame.
http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a364/thaicreate/my%20website/purple-rose-4.jpg <click file (upper left) choose print
http://www.monchesfarm.com/Abstract%20Art.jpg <"
http://www.soonerplantfarm.com/_ccLib/image/plants/DETA-386.jpg

You could decorate with accessories like candles, lava lamp and blown glass figurines.

Bedroom ideas for teenage girl?

Hi everyone!

I have a serious crisis- I can't decide what colour to paint my room! I saw someone who's painted their room with black and white stripes on the bed wall, and the rest white, but my parents think it would look weird if I do it on all the walls. I want to put posters on my walls too but on the opposite side of my bed, and if that wall is just plain white... it's just plain. At first, i wanted to paint my room a nice lavender. But my cousin just had to go and paint her room the same colour I wanted. Soooo. I can't paint it that colour. My bed is this one(including the sidetables):
http://www.bestsecondhandfurniture.co.uk/02.beds/12/9.jpg
but in black. I couldn't find a picture with the sidetables in black.. The design is supposedly called "Malm". My room is pretty small, a rectangular shape, all sharp 4 corners. I have the bedroom at the front of the house so I have three, long vertical windows that I've hung red curtains. I DON'T KNOW WHAT COLOUR OR DESIGN TO PAINT MY ROOM! IT'S DRIVING ME INSANE! Who knew choosing a colour for your bedroom could be so stressful? -___-" Alright, so, a little about me so you know what I would like I guess: I like bright colours, but I love the colour beige, and lavender(can't use that one though >w<!) And uh, i'm 15 ^^ Come on people, give me some good ideas!

Arigato!~



Answer
Hm. Well, all of my colors would be unsuited, for I like dark colors ;D but perhaps try making each wall a different bright color? pastel, or neon combinations~

goodgirlab


I'm going to redo a bedroom, I would like to use black and white and accent color red. and asian theme. I'm thinking of painting wall that has the window black and using red curtains.


Answer
I have a black wainscotting (half of the wall) in my own bedroom and have done full black walls in clients. I broke up the cave like feel by using picture frame molding painted gold and filling the squares with black and gold wallpaper. If you do the entire wall black, break up the density by using an asian character, either Japanese or Chinese, in your accent colors of either red or white (red with white accents would be stunning). You can find stamps in collections at craft stores copy them larger and make stencils or hand apply one large character to the center of the wall. There are great choices too, peace, serenity, health, prosperity, joy, long life are all beautiful characters in both languages. If you go with the character idea, your red drapes will look luxurious and is the sign for good luck in Chinese. Sounds like a cool project.

One last hint. If you do paint the wall black, save yourself a lot of work. Prime with a deep based primer first so you don't have to do more than two coats of the black paint to get the depth and intensity of color. Darker colors often require many more coats without priming to get full saturation and coverage.

Answer
a rich red/orange wall accent with a nice earth tone brown will go nice on the walls to accent the furniture and beddings ... try imaging the walls in two tone colors.

My friend just move into her new house, and in one of the rooms had similar specs as your's, that's what she did and it looked great, i'm sorry I don't have pictures though...

Decorating distress, Beginning home maker sending out an S.O.S.?




sharks bla


Okay, so it is not an emergency, sorry if the head line was too dramatic, I just did not know how to word it and be short, sweet, and to the point. I am in a sort of confused state of mind right now and I am looking for advice or any helpful suggestions.

First let me set the stage on what is going on...

I am almost 25, and just finished college. I have a good paying job and have made arrangements to move out of my parents' home, where I stayed, saving money while attending school and work. I move into my new place in a little over a month from now. This is not the first time I am moving out, I leased an apartment with my sister for a year when I turned 18. I will be moving out on my own this time and am in the middle of planning and making lists of items I need to buy for my new place. It is in this stage that I have found my problem.

All my life, I have slept in the smallest bedroom of the house. The room I have had since 1997 is 9 feet by 9 feet. The room in the apartment I shared with my sister was 8 feet by 8 feet. I own a twin bed, book shelf, desk, night stand, and a head board. All items were hand-me-downs. There is no real theme/style to my room. I like various things and have tidbits of those interest scattered around the room with no real order. It has been described by friends as a mixture of a little girl's, teenage boy's, and granny's room.

While making shopping lists and plans, I realized I have no idea how to decorate a home. I am moving from a 81 square foot room, with few furnishings and even fewer decor possibilities, into a 1500 square foot town house with no real sense of decor. I understand that decorating a home is a life long process that never stops and is not gained overnight, but I would at least would like an idea of what style I would like and dislike.

I know I could always ask my mother for help decorating, as she redecorates a room in the house once a month and it comes out looking magazine worthy, but I would like to do this one my own, with out her controlling were everything goes and how it looks, it is something I need to learn for myself.

How does one find out what styles to decorate with? Where do you find your inspiration and creativity? Is there a way to have it look stylish with out losing functionality? Any ideas, tips or suggestions that can help me? Any websites that can help as well? Anything else you think would be helpful in my situation?

Thank you for your time reading this, I know it was long, and I really appreciate it.
The place I am moving into has 2 bedrooms, 1 1/2 bathrooms, living room, dining room, den, kitchen, front and back patio section, and a garage. The rooms are big and spacious, the master bedroom alone is 15 feet by 14 feet, two and a half times my old room.

I have also looked on pinterest for decorating ideas but I will usually only like one or two things in a picture and none of them go together, or even be considered the same style.
There is also another thing that concerns me, what if once I buy everything and set it up, I hate it? I noticed that I change my mind and switch comforters out almost monthly. I have a purple/white cheetah/stripe print, a blue/gold sun/moon print, solid grey/black print, solid white down comforter, grey/multi color polka dot print, and a quit with rich colors and a black border. Most of my comforters are reversible and I take advantage of that and change it up a lot. I also have sheets in multiple fabrics and shades/prints.

Hi - You learn so many things through the years in school, but you seldom get education on decorating styles for the home. This short guide from About.com will steer you to quizzes and resources to help you determine your specific favorite decorating style.

Connect to the links here and answer some simple questions. Before you know it, you'll get information on your decorating style, based on your answers. What could be easier? Use these sources as a guide to creating the interior that reflects your personality.

What’s your interior design style? It can be hard to define. If you’re either country casual or city sleek, the difference is extreme and you’re easier to describe. But what about if you are transitional? And what does that even mean? Your interior design style is a hard thing to define, but having an understanding of your likes and dislikes, and knowing how to describe them, is step one to a successful new design plan. The following is a highly unscientific quiz that helps break down the major style elements in a design plan:

How to decorate a guest room with 2 dark brown walls and 2 hot pink walls?




Tammy


My daughter just moved out of the house and her bedroom will now be used as a guest room. It was recently painted so we really don't want to paint it again but there are 2 walls that are chocolate brown and 2 wall are hot pink. The headboard of the bed and nightstand are white. How can I decorate this room without it feeling like a teenage girl's room?


Answer
Oh gosh...I don't usually kind of insist on painting if you don't want to, but I'm hoping I can talk you into painting the 2 pink walls, cause frankly, the pink walls & white furniture will be hard to overcome as an adult room. The white furniture we can work with. So we have to have a bedding set for inspiration. I found this one that has a white background to pull in the white furniture & overall lighten the room:

http://www.jcpenney.com/jcp/X6E.aspx?GrpTyp=ENS&ItemID=1b6aff6&DeptID=82319&CatID=82321&SO=0&SelDim=1031%7e&x5view=1&NOffset=0&Ne=949+877+5+1031+1007+8+18&shopperType=G&N=4294932621+4294949521&Nao=42&PSO=0&CmCatId=82319|82321

The chocolate is in there & the print is a modern stylized Jacobean print. Soooooo...would you be willing to paint those 2 pink walls the rusty red in this bedding??? Take a sham to Sherwin Williams & also the name/number of the current pink (or a good picture of it). They will help you choose the best method of covering the pink with the red. Also, to make the room look bigger & sophisticated, paint the ceiling the color of the tan in the draperies & bedding. Again, SW can help you with this.

This is another choice you might like - just follow my same principles:

Do you have a ceiling fixture in the room??? Do you have nightstands??? (I hope so) Consider using a pair of these over the nightstands:

And this as your ceiling fixture:

Lastly...wall decor. Use a LARGE print for impact like this:

The larger & fewer the accessories the better.

Aria


I've been living very minimally for the past two years. I still live with my parents, but have a steady job. I work solely for the purpose of being able to help the less fortunate. Please don't judge me, its just what i love doing. My 27th birthday is just around the corner, and as a gift my parents have given me a large sum of money to go towards giving me an amazing bedroom makeover. I can't use this for anything other the for my room, and i've accepted that (thought its hard not to just give it away to somebody else, i'm so used to that lifestyle.) I've actually been dreaming about a new bedroom for years, and now have the opportunity to turn my dream into a reality. But i am not the best at decorating or redecorating, and that's where i need all your help.

- When i'm not working, i'm reading or writing, mostly fairytale related things.

- Wintertime is the only time when i truly come alive and am inspired. Something about the weather outside being cold/miserable and windy, that does something to me, though i don't understand why.

- My favourite colours are Chocolate & White (together,) and This very dark green i can't really explain. I've seen it used many times in game/rumpus rooms & dens though.

- All the fairytales i've read & watched, i've always daydreamed about my room being set in a certain era. I'm obsessed with king arthur, and if i could, i'd redesign an entire house dedicated to that era.

- I'm a real daydreamer, and i daydream in fairytales. I still fantasize about being a commoner (which i am,) being able to catch the eye of a prince, who doesn't care about my rank, is in love with me, and will marry me, even if i were a mere serving girl... (i'm oddly obsessed with royalty, and would like to have a room like this someday perhaps, though i'd feel odd about it, knowing how i'm living, and others out there are starving.)

- I like filming/photography, but they're NOT as important as reading & writing.

- I am neither girlie, nor a tomboy, very in the middle, neutral

- I still want a level of minimalism, simplicity, etc

- I'm worry too much over people, my animals, etc (maybe throw some blue in there for me lol.)

- I have a fixation for anything Uk. Not really into harry potter now, but there was a time, where all i wanted was to live in that kind of world, you see in their movies (minus the magic.) The castle, the rainy/gloomy weather, streetlamps flickering at night, snowfall, etc... I still want this more than ever!
Forgot to mention...

What would be the appropriate ornaments to purchase? Colour scheme? An actual theme? Etc.



Answer
I'm thinking a poster bed with white sheer linens flowing from it along the top, not necessarily in any sort of a symmetrical fashion. Probably not lace. Simple sheer in triangles or rectangles maybe hanging in handkerchief fashion. Or long flowing sheers. Or sheers that flow into the corners and wrap up around the posts with a large ribbon with a long streamer.. The furniture rich brown. The comforter in a forest green, with brown gold running through it. The walls in blue, with pin stripe alternating white and brown. Or just solid blue teal or aqua. Like Gliddens Bermuda Blue. I like Glid. Leather Brown on the walls with something like the Glid. Bermuda Blue for the comforter, with colors gold or brown, white, forest green running through it in swirls of some sort. The furniture antique white. Nix white ceilings. Bring in white lights to sparkle on your bed. I think they have low wattage kind for such a thing. If not with the sheers, which i would really think could be done, maybe a big plant like a Tree, not so much for the leaves, artificial i mean, for the structure, that you can wrap lights around in a corner somewhere too, for atmosphere. Or both. Glid. Blue Marina is pretty. Maybe that for the walls, the furniture rich brown. You could search for the comforter in the rich forest green, and try to find gold tones running through it. If it has blue in it, then you have to match that blue for the walls. Just examples. Blue Marina is a pretty grey blue. It would be serene i think. You know what you like. Probably start with the comforter. Then go from there with the colors. Just alternate them. Perhaps white furniture with the white sheers and and accent of another color, either found in the comforter, or one not used anywhere, that you like, like the rich forest green. Your colors will all work together. The comforter, then perhaps the carpet. Home Depot can match paint colors from a comforter. Just watch and let them know it is brand new and to please be careful with it. They should not have to take it completely out of its shield. Shop. If you have the money to play with, and you like a comforter then get it. You can take it back if you fall in love with another. It should all come together. I would have glass accessories. I have a vision in my head of something i am sure i saw at TJMax. An antique white old fashioned lamp look w/ metal wrapping around it. Good for like a corner of a brown bureau. Old books, found at a thrift store stacked next to it. Going towards shabby chic, since you like the old era of like King Arthur and Avalon, or a Harry Potter-like era. Draperies, that hang to the floor, touching the floor elegantly. The carpet will be important. I think wood would be better with a large area rug that is near your bed for when you get in and out of it. The coloring will be some work. But it does not have to be solid. Just watch the mix between the rug and the comforter. They can't both be dramatic. You could maybe have sconces put in the room, or just look like sconces without actually electrical lighting. You mentioned pets. So probably no candles, but that would be nice. Perhaps sconces that can be up and away and that can be closed a bit, and take in candles with confidence. I am sure there must be something out there like that. Nice for atmosphere while you read your tales and lore. Along with the lights on the bed. Not flashing lights. Still lights. White. You have your colors. You know your theme... your theme is you... and your fantasy world.... Go shopping... just look around and you will be drawn to things. You don't have to buy it all at once and there, its done. Build on it. Discover yourself. Just let it happen. Take that time for yourself to discover yourself. Go alone a lot. Take you time; there's no hurry. If you have that fun money, have fun. I see things and I don't get them sometimes and then I regret it. Maybe I thought it was just a little more than what I would want to pay for it.... but if you like it get it... you can take it back. It may not fit in. Just know the return policy. Keep that receipt. You are into fantasy periods too, with horses, dragons, unicorns. Some of those things may strike your fancy as you shop. Something delightful. Magical. You will know when you see it. I sometimes get neurotic about things, its got this little flaw on it... then I go back and it's gone. You may get over that little flaw, you may not. But if you are somewhere like TJ Max, you may never see it again. Grab it, take it back if change your mind. TJ Max in the next town may have it. They will hold it til later while you check. You have so much idea. You just have to shop. You already know what you want. Explore it now. It'll be fun. Let it come together as you explore. If you like it, it will work. Live your secret dream now....

What name would work well to finish this sibset?




Elle and C


These are three girl triplets...
Wrenzie, Alexeya, and (This is the name I need to figure out)

The girls are have blonde hair, blueish eyes, and freckles across their noses. Even though they are in seventh grade, people often confuse them for sixth or even fifth graders. Wrenzie (This is actually her nickname her real name is McKenza Wrenzinsky) is an extremely friendly girl. She has an open personality and loves to get to know people. She is also a very fast runner. She is on the track team and participates in nearly every event. She holds the fastest record for her whole school, and is proud of it. She gets along really well with her sisters, and is always smiling her beautiful smile. Her favorite colors are blue and red. her favorite books are any book that crossed onto the face of this earth, and her favorite track event is the 100 meter, the 200 meter, and the relay races. She usually wears shorts and a t-shirt with a sweatshirt over top, and has her curly hair pulled back into a ponytail. Alexeya, or Alexi for short, is very artsy. She loves to draw flowers, and sometimes draws other things too. She loves to help out and loves her loft bedroom, which is also considered the attic in the family ranch. The dark wood floors have a pink quilt, and the walls are painted a peach color. Her bed consists of a pink quilted cover and pillow. She usually styles her long straight hair in pigtails or just leaves her hair down. She owns a horse named Potato who is gray with white speckles. She is talented at ballet and loves her pink tutu. In the winter, she likes to go sledding with her sisters and her little brother Brian (whose nine years old). Her favorite color is pink, although she also likes yellow. Her favorite sports are ballet and horse back riding. Her favorite book is War Horse.

What should I name their triplet? This is a description of her:
Even though she is their sister, girl number 3 looks nothing like Wrenzie or Alexi. She has long wavy, honey brown hair and hazel eyes. Her favorite colors are red and pink, although she likes red better. Her favorite book is the Hunter Games. She has been studying the French language since she was ten, and is nearly fluent. She loves birds! Her favorites are snowy owls, although she only owns a canary named Pickles. Girl number 3 is a snowboarder. She has a red snowboard (with a matching red snowsuit) on which she painted a snowy owl. She loves riding the slopes when winter comes along with sledding with her siblings. She's also a painter and musician. She plays the flute and the guitar. She paints birds. She and Wrenzie share a room. They have a bunkbed. Girl number three has the top bunk, and has decorated her pink sheets with a nightangale on them, while Wrenzie has solid red sheets. Girl number three's favorite sport of all time is hockey. She is on the junior varsity team and is captain of her team. She's really easygoing and doesn't do very well at math in science, but is good at all her other school-subjects.



Answer
I think that you should name her Eloisea (Eh-lou-ise-a), but Elo for short. But if you don't like that I think her name should be either Skylar or Lydia.

What site would help me find a teen girl design bedroom?

How can I start being a fashion and beauty girl?

bedroom accessories for baby girls image



Skylar Sca


I'm 13 and I love fashion and beauty, but I just don't know how to be a fashionista/ fashion and beauty girl! I'm doing this for myself, by the way! What magazines do I read, make -up, any recommended stores, clothing lines, clothes, shoes, accessories, purses (I already have a small Coach Purse), what do fashionistas obsess over (except for fashion and beauty duh!), how do they act, any recommended books (fiction or nonfiction), what do they say a lot, what celebrities are their role models, how do I get great fashionista-baby soft skin, any bedroom (bathroom) make-overs, and any other suggestions are cool! I don't want to be self-centered or mean, I am really nice actually.

Sorry, that's a lot of stuff, but I just love fashion, just don't know how to put it!

Advice would be awesome!



Answer
Read TeenVogue, it's the best way to follow the fashion trends. People and Instyle have fashion updates for people your age sometimes. Keep your make-up safe, and clean with a glow that makes you the way you are. Don't make it too dramatic. Even out your make up; maybe a little bit of mascara, eyeliner, a touch of eyeshadow, a little bit of blush, and some gloss will do. Guys don't like it when girls have too much make up. I personally don't like Forever21 because their clothes are cheap material so I recommend that you shop at Nordstroms, Urban Outfitters, and H&M. Always dress according to the ocasio and weather, keep your accessories cute, never mix&match, but don't over accessorize. These days, the bigger the better. Don't carry around a dinky little purse, get your oufit to look more fabulous by carrying a purse that has a lot of room and style to it. Jeans are very important. I love Citizens of Humanity, True Religions, and William Rast jeans. Do not get jeans that are too tight. You'll get a muffin top which means that your fats goes over your jeans beacause your jeans are too tight. It was stated on E!'s 50 fashion do and don't. Make sure to keep the length right, and the butt area looking fit. I use Nu Skin, which is not a very well known brand, but it is the best. I was breaking out one time, I applyed some facial acne creame, the next day it was gone. And for your make up, go to Sephora, not MAC. MAC makes you look like a cake face. GOOD LUCK!

What would be a good decor scheme for a bedroom shared by 3 year old girl and baby boy?




starlight_


We're having a baby boy and for the time being (until we get a bigger place) my 3 year old daughter and he will share a room. My daughter already has everything decked out in pink and full of princess accessories. I haven't bought my crib set or anything like that for my boy yet. How could I have them share a room and have it all tie in together so it doesn't look like one side is for a boy and one for a girl? I'm also looking for relativley affordable options, since they will probably only share for one year at the most. And my paint options are limited. I would have to go with something nuetral so I can easily paint it back to white before we move again, or maybe put up a border to dress up the walls.


Answer
Try a nature theme. Blues, pinks, purples, greens and yellows with rainforest animals, farm life or underwater life is gender non specific. These themes will "grow up" with your kids and not be outdated in a few years.

What color of paint is modern and cozy?

beautiful contemporary bedroom ideas
 on Beautiful Bedroom Designs | Bedroom Interior
beautiful contemporary bedroom ideas image



rkunca01


My husband and I just bought a beautiful 4 br 2 ba home. The whole interior needs a new coat of paint. Any ideas on colors or designs? We both know how to paint but very confused when it comes to interior design. Thanks for help!


Answer
Chocolate brown can be quite cozy in a lounge, and you can always lighten it up in the summer by having beige cushions or seat covers.

It really is a matter of taste though, as some people think the colour is ghastly. Don't go for a really dark brown, you might as well paint it all black.

Red's a traditional cozy colour, but can be quite intimidating for males especially in the bedroom.

Whatever colour you do pick, make sure that you can lighten it up for the summer, as unless coupled with beige brown can make a room feel claustrophobic and hot in warm weather.

Light colours or yellows and blues will work for bathrooms. Greens and blues can work if they are not particularly ferocious.

Kitchens should be pale, and neither hot or cold. Try peach/yellow coupled with an assortment of coloured tiles for the walls to add a funky and modern feel that is contemporary and cozy. Make sure the tiles match the paint though!

Hallways should be neutral, as you generally pass through them. Lilacs, reds and oranges work (not together) as they are welcoming. Remember that this is the first room, other than the porch, that your guests will see.

If you have a porch, try mellow and low key colours. It does not need to be welcoming, you only use it to hang coats and put shoes in. Cheap prints can really make a porch feel nice, and make it feel although it is still part of the house without much work on your part.

I mentioned bedrooms and lounges earlier, in the earlier paragraphs. Utility rooms should be light and bright. Guest rooms should be neutral, whites or yellows often work well. You can dress white up with nice furniture to make the room feel more loved.

If in doubt on any room try to focus on curtains/material that you like. Match colours from existing furniture, artwork, upholstery and carpets. You may find this easier.

Modern themes tend to be pale, with bright and funky accessories. Interior designers are currently following the theory that it is the artwork ect that make the room what it is rather than having bright colours on the walls which flit in and out of fashion constantly.

I am having some issues with decorating my master bedroom. Help!?




Jackie W


I have a rather large space (17x17 ft) with a vaulted ceiling that angles up and creates a plant shelf above the door to the master bath. I would like some suggestions on what to do with this shelf area. It is about 12 ft long and 4 ft deep and is about 9 ft from the floor and is 5 ft tall. I would say that our style is "transitional" not too contemporary and not too traditional. Also I am having trouble with the color scheme. Our furniture is dark cherry, our bedding is khaki and creme striped and the carpet is beige. The walls are currently khaki and all of the neutrals are starting to get to me!! I would like to add some color but with such large walls I am afraid of being overwhelmed. Any help is greatly appreciated!!

Thanks!



Answer
i would probably fill the space above the door with a sculpture of some sort (try pier one or bombay company). i think that maybe some light grayish tones with hints of blue would look very nice on your walls to complement the contemporary side. otherwise you should go your local paint store and pick up some paint swatches or even some sample colors that you can actually paint on your wall to try.
this website provides some beautiful colors and ideas. for your situation i would suggest checking out the urban loft, whitewash and thoroughbred colors.

what color to paint my room?




katie


i am a girl, and in high school.
we are moving soon and i get a new room to decorate myself. :)
one color i know i want is hot pink, but i don't know what else.
so, i need colors that will go good with pink. (:
also, what types of furniture should i have?
the room is going to a lot bigger than my old room and i don't want it to look empty.
any other suggestions for designing a new room would be great! :D
also, where can i get some bedding? not little girl bedding but not adult bedding. teenage/college bedding.



Answer
I like hot pink with light pink, cream and brown. But it can work with lots of colors depending on your bedding and whether you want a calmer bedroom or a lively one. Yellow looks good with hot pink and so does lime green, orange or aqua. Buy comforter first then you can base all your accents...pillows, rugs, lamps, art, candles, etc. on that. Maybe something here will inspire you:

What are some lesser known facts about the Victorian days?

Daisy L


I have to write a book taken place in the Victorian days for school. What are some lesser known facts about the Victorian days that could hep me write the book better? I have Victorian names picked out, and the facts can be about girls, boys, adults, anything really. One is a royalty. Did they have royalty in the Victorian days? I really don't know. Thanks :)


Answer
Justins right.
Clothing sometimes consisted what is now called Baby Doll Gothic
And Baby Doll Angel clothes.
Women used only corsets, yep no bras. A strip of linen that was disposed after two weeks was worn instead of underwear.
Baths were taken once a week and sometimes in small tubs or public washrooms.

When a woman entered a room, it was considered rude for a man to offer his seat to her because the cushion might still be warm.

People thought food digested better in the dark, so a dining room located in the basement was considered the best spot in which to eat.

A glance into a bedroom was considered improper if viewed by a visitor, so bedrooms were located on the second floor.

People were shy about having water closets, so they disguised fixtures as dressers and cabinets. Tubs were enclosed in wooden boxes that resembled large chests. People went to great lengths to hide toilets from view. In some homes, they were behind a curtain or screen, or even in a room of their own.

Children rarely saw their parents. A special trip was made to the nursery each evening, and the visit lasted about an hour.

Women made pictures, wreaths, and bouquets from their own hair or the hair of a family member to be framed and displayed in the parlor.

Some rocking chairs were designed to disguise a chamber pot. People had to be careful not to rock too quickly!

A lot of men used macassar oil to slick back their hair. Crocheted doilies, called antimacassars, were put over the backs of chairs to keep this grease from staining the furniture.

For a lady to show her ankles was considered very risque!

To control insects, many people kept a HEDGEHOG in the basement. It curled up and slept in the day, but roamed around the dark kitchen at night eating cockroaches and other insects.

Some ladies suffered with facial hair,or "Bad Hair Days" or hated darning.

We are happy to tell you that it is now illegal for a husband to strike or beat his wife. His right of "moderate correction" was first questioned in the time of Charles the Second, and is now indefensible. A wife has the right to the custody of her child up to seven years of age. The personal property of a wife passes to her husband absolutely on her marriage, but her real (i.e.freehold) property can only be alienated by him during her life with her consent

In Victorian times, darning stockings was a task ladies undertook - time consuming and laborious.

Can you help me with ideas for my childrens bedroom?

I have 2 girls. 1 and 3. My 1 year old is almost 2 but very advanced for her age. She speaks very clearly. My 3 year old will be 4 july4th. The theme is dora & puppies. What kind of beds should I use? Twin over full bunkbed? my 3 yr old is tall she looks and talks like a 5 yr old.. So she'll be needing something like a twin? Bit will that look right?? Any ideas?


Answer
I would get twin beds or if the room is big enough full size beds or twin boards that can convert to full. Girls, unlike boys, tend to tire of the whole bunk bed idea quick.

Also, I might be biased because I now have 3 girls and 2 boys and buying bedroom furniture over and over isn't part of the plan or budget..lol I use bedding to kiddie up their rooms.

Using your theme, I would go for something like this where the bedding isn't exactly the same for their beds, but coordinated (scroll to the pink set).

Here are some bedroom sets. Personally, I bought my mattresses locally because I wanted to see the quality and knew I could bargain with them on the price since I was buying more than one set:

How to make a paramore themed bedroom?

beautiful bedroom design ideas image



Kel Lee


I really want to theme my room with paramore. Its kind of small, and i really want it to have that new york artists studio apartment bedroom feel. I cant paint my room dark colors, and any bright colors have to be approved by my landlord. Any ideas?


Answer
I love paramore too. I guess it depends on which cd cover you are wanting to channel to get the paramore feeling into your room. Personally my favorite is the All We Know is Falling cover - it is really beautiful. Then there is the graffiti black and red type design for the Riot cover or the neutrals with the butterfly for the Brand New Eyes cover.

If you want to somehow mix all three very different looks you could try something bold such as a "night sky blue" comforter with a red chair (All We Know) and black accents (All We Know and Riot). You could then mix in butterflies (Brand New Eyes) and graffiti (Riot) in your art work for example as well as of course pics of the band themselves. :)



Good luck with everything!

Looking for Celtic Inerior design tips and references =)?




Rose G


I'm completely remodeling my bedroom and love Celtic inspired art. I'm looking for a website(s) or books that can help me achieve a Celtic look without just throwing a bunch of Celtic stuff in the room and calling it good. I want it to look subtle and beautiful not cliché. I want it to look Celtic with out screaming I bought a bunch of Celtic looking stuff with Celtic designs all over it and threw it in the room. I have an idea of what I want it to end up looking like....very organic and earthy but looking for pictures of finished rooms to draw inspiration from. I have an iron poster bed with scroll work and leaves that I want to buy and become the center piece...sort of like the Tree of Life symbol but want ideas and color palette ideas to pull the room together. Thank you for any help or references you can think of to help me. Rose.


Answer
I would stick to the traditional colors of greens and golds. I would do walls in a warm honey color. Bedding in deep greens with celtic inspired throw pillows in green and gold. You can find beautiful pictures of Irish or Scottish castles. Or frame travel posters of the area you like. Maybe a few celtic crosses grouped together on a wall. I agree that you don't want your room to look like you just threw in a bunch of celtic junk. You might just want to add a greenman wall plaque instead of a picture if it is more the mysticism look you are wanting. Here are a few places you may find interesting pieces for your room.

How should I decorate my bedroom that has forest green carpet and wood paneling?

Katie


I can't change the carpet or paint the walls but I want my room to look more like a teenage girls room. The walls are a really light cream/wood color and the carpet has flecks of purple and tan in it. I just want some ideas as to how to decorate in a way that will tie every thing in. What color furniture? curtains? and bed set?


Answer
Hanging light purple sheer panels can lighten it up since there are flecks of purple in the carpeting. A light colored poster board would brighten up the room along with some teen posters (I've seen an array of posters at Walmart). A light purple bedspread that matches the curtains would also bring brightness into the room. Go to garage sales and get an old piece of furniture like a table or a small desk. Paint the top one color and the legs another. Like purple top, tan legs. Sometimes you can get reject paint at paint stores or Walmart at a good price. If you get poster board and it has a border, use that brightly colored paint to accent it. A purple border that matches the table/desk would look beautiful. I hope this helps you, just be creative.

decorating and painting my room in blue?

i'm moving into a new house soon and i've been thinking of using the ocean and beach theme to decorate my bedroom but i dont want a overly beach bum type of bedroom.i want to use shades of blue and green. i would like a fresh feel to the room because i live in country with a hot climate. any decorating ideas and ideas for paint and furniture?


Answer
I have the perfect paint color for you, it's called "Rainwashed" by Sherwin Williams. I wanted a look similar to your's in my bedroom. I too live in the country and wanted my room to have a feel that I'm on vacation with the ocean just outside my window. I painted all the woodwork white. Hung white sheers with white venetian blinds behind them and bought a beautiful white Matelasse' coverlet (there on sale at J C Penny right now, queen size only $44.99). You can ALWAYS get on-line coupon codes for J C Penny's as well just by googling. A few well placed pieces of coral and a few favorite seashells in a basket on the floor, a nicely framed (also white) favorite picture of the ocean and the room turned out to be everything I was looking for. Hope you have the same success. You can find that paint color at

loko love


I am about to begin the process of moving into a new house, I have always shared a room with my younger brother but now that we are purchasing a three bedroom i finally have the opportunity to decorate and grow up a little. I want my room to be elegant and beautiful, I would love it if you could give me some personal opinions on color pallet, and needs to reach my goal. I am on a budget so DIY and cheapness will not get you marked down haha. I am 16 and would really love all of your help. At the moment i was thinking either a very light pink, or a grey oyster color. I am just not quite sure. Please help!!
Love,
Loco



Answer
Pink & gray to together nicely, and the gray makes pink look more sophisticated.

I say the best thing you can do is just look at a lot of inspiration rooms, find one you like, and then steal ideas from it, lol.

I like this website for pics:

What should I get my parents for Christmas?




hoja


My sister and I are trying to figure out what to get our parents for Christmas this year. I'd say our budget is around $200. My dad is in his early 50s and my mom is in her late 40s. Any ideas? Thanks!


Answer
Hello. You can either give them something that they can use for their hobby...as individual gifts or you can give them a gift that they can use at home or in the bedroom like a beautiful lamp. I'm sure there are a lot of items out there that is definitely within your budget.
You can search google or amazon or ebay for these items. Hope this helps!
