A. You can always over do decorating. So you can start by painting all the walls but one white in each room.. and the 4th wall, you can paint in the sceme of your furniture, so they fit together. When you get the hang of painting, you can teach yourself to sponge paint. you use 4 colors with the darkest at the base coat. It turns out like marble sometimes. We sponge painted my ugly kitchen counters with a dark blue base and then beigh, light blue and white .. it turns out really cool and we get a lot of compliments.. but for other decorationg, you can go to a library, drs office or just buy a home and garden magazine that you can get ideas from... decorate from your gut.. what do you like to be around.. a forest, then pick greens.. the ocean, then pick blues.. colors that make you feel good and comfortable.. you will be spending a lot of time there so do what makes you feel good. Good luck.!!. i would love to see the before and after pix...makes sure u take some.. they are always nice to look back on what a beautiful job you did. Paint covers a multitude of sins...LOL... believe me, I used to be a painting contractor. peace always, Jan
what is a good color for decorating a paris themed room besides pink or white ?
Q. i am redoing my room in a parisian theme and need some ideas on how to make it look and feel like your in Paris ,France .I am a 17 yr old girl so please no little kid ideas or anything pink thank you
A. Paris is a vibrantly colorful city with every hue imaginable, so you should select the one that will help you to create the vibe you're trying to achieve in your room. If you're wanting a serene, sophisticated haven you could paint your room a soft lavender gray and have a gallery wall of framed sepia prints of some of Paris's most beautiful architecture. If you want a lively space you could paint your room a vivacious green, sky blue, or pretty turquoise and put up pictures of Luxembourg Gardens and other gems of Paris in the spring. A very soft aqua is feminine without being girlish. I attended the Maison & Objet interior design exposition in Paris last year, and kelly green was the trendiest color then. Of course, this year a new color will be in vogue. Choose what you love.
There's so much more to Paris than the Eiffel Tower or the Moulin Rouge, so you shouldn't limit yourself. Consider the colors you love the most, and how they make you feel. Reds and oranges tend to be more energetic and passionate, but they can be a bit much in a bedroom where you want to be able to relax and sleep. Medium toned blues and greens are usually more tranquil. Pastels are fresh and youthful. There's a fun coffee book titled "Paris in Color" and you can see some of the photos from it here: http://www.missmoss.co.za/2012/04/23/paris-in-colour/
Have fun decorating!

Where can I find pictures of luxurious, unique, and amazing home design?
Q. Hi, I am currently building a house, and am looking for options to design my bedroom. I don't have a budget, so honestly, I don't want ikea-ish looking things. I am looking for very unique, beautiful designs (something resembling design found in Vogue magazine, Celebrity homes)..are there any websites online that would help me with my research??
A. I was looking at this yesterday. Just go to google, and type in (style here) decorating style. Look at sites about them, or google images. I personally looooove the Moroccan kind, and Rustic.
