In my interior design class we have to design a room for someone else. The girl who I have to design a room for wants me to make her a steampunk mixed with victorian styled room. I've never made a room like that before and I need a bit of help. Things like wallpaper, paint, furniture, and accessories will be needed. Pictures would be really helpful.

How can I make my bedroom cozier and prettier?
Q. I am a 13yr old girl and I want to make my bedroom feel like a place I actually want to hang out in because at the moment it is sort of boring. The problem is I can't paint the walls and I only have a budget of about $60- $70. I want to make it indie or vintage looking. If anyone has any tips on how I could do this it would be greatly appreciated!!!
Answer
The best place to go will probably be to resale shops like Good Will. Check in your phone book. And yard sales, check your newspapers or look out on Friday and Saturdays on the corners. This will stretch your dollar. To get it right, go slow, and don't be anxious to buy all you need right away.
Even if you can not paint your walls, there are things you can do with your walls.
1. hang sheets, or curtains on them by using small nails to tack around the top of the walls. Sheets and curtains can be found at both of above. If you have some ideas on the colors and designs you like, you could get white sheets and then, buy some Ritz dye, at the grocery store, and go in the back yard with your designs that you made on paper, and paint them onto the sheets. Don't get discouraged. Usually once you get all the white out of the sheet, or paper, what ever you are drawing on it will look better. Decide wether you want the sheets flat or to be ruffled along the wall.
2. You can use the same material to cover your lamp shades. If you do not have lamps, you can get them cheap at the above sources as well, and indirect lighting softens the room. You could even use a stencil and draw that on the lampshade or the sheets. Blue guns are great for crafts, and don't cost much, go to a sewing store for these.
3. You might be able to find discontinued wall paper at a paint store. You can staple this to the walls, and it should only leave very small punctures. Even if you can't find all one pattern you can mix patterns or only do one wall. It really brightens up a room.
4. If your room is small, be on the look out for mirrors. You can paint all the frames a certain color or gold, silver, or pewter for a retro look. You can even make a wall full of mirrors. Often putting them opposite the light source (window) in your room can increase the light and the sense of the outdoors in your room.
5. You could drape one of the sheets above your bed like a canopy, by stapling it to the ceiling. Have someone help you, as one staple tends to pull out while you are trying to get the next in. Someone holding it in place until you get enough staples to hold it where you want helps.
6. You will need a yard stick or tape measure, a hammer, stapler, some small thin nails with large round heads. Ikea, tends to have cheap good tool kits all together for about 10$. Put your name on the box and the tools so they don't walk off.
7. Using the same materials and designs make a few pillows for your bed or chair. The trick is to repeat a few colors though out your room. This ties the room together.
8. If you see some pictures for the wall that you like cheap enough, pictures on the wall often really help make the room. Even if you can only find frames, draw the pictures yourself...remember as long as you fill in ALL the white spaces, almost anything you draw will look good.
Good luck, x
