beautiful bedroom ideas pinterest image
Mariah
I'm redecorating my bedroom and want to look on Pinterest for ideas, but I can't remember the "name" of this color scheme. It's typically all black and white with a splash of one color. For whatever reason I keep thinking monochromatic, but I know that's not right. Help! Please and thank you! (:

Does this room sound nice/okay?

Okay I'm redecorating my bedroom, I've kind of fallen in love with the bohemian/gypsey/mythical look, lol my mum doesn't like it though. Anyway I'm painting my walls dark green, I'm putting things like antique maps and ed sheeran (because i have a lot) posters on the wall, as well as pictures in frames and my mirror which is like this http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?q=circles+mirror&um=1&hl=en&sa=N&tbo=d&biw=1024&bih=677&tbm=isch&tbnid=LKUNJledxumx9M:&imgrefurl=http://www.furnitureinfashion.net/circles-silver-table-lamp-lmh018-p-5131.html&docid=Ik7oE2PAqZgBBM&imgurl=http://www.furnitureinfashion.net/images/circle-wall-mirror-1101171.jpg&w=480&h=480&ei=qNDQUPSMBqWO0AX3v4CIBA&zoom=1&iact=rc&dur=296&sig=112617800466769165905&page=1&tbnh=142&tbnw=140&start=0&ndsp=26&ved=1t:429,r:5,s:0,i:103&tx=77&ty=46
I also want to put my grandad's old guitar on the wall..
I have a tall bed so underneath I'm having a white desk with shelves either end where I'll have books...because it's white I'm going to have a drape (either red, orange or purple) on it to add colour. My computer will also be on the desk.
Underneath my bed I will also have several dream catchers. Around the top of all of my walls, and possibly under my bed too there will be fairy lights. I already have lots of candles and incence in my room, as well as an antique style letter box, a similar shape to this except it's cream and has molded swirly antique patterns.. http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?q=antique+cream+writing+box&start=106&um=1&hl=en&tbo=d&biw=1024&bih=677&tbm=isch&tbnid=dbP4rtloixDeZM:&imgrefurl=http://www.timbowenantiques.co.uk/furniture/19th-century-painted-pine-writing-slope&docid=nfqUiaW7EKm9YM&imgurl=http://www.timbowenantiques.co.uk/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/painted-slope-b.jpg&w=550&h=376&ei=pdLQUKy4L6LV0QWZpYHQDw&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=336&vpy=63&dur=64&hovh=186&hovw=272&tx=128&ty=104&sig=112617800466769165905&page=5&tbnh=137&tbnw=212&ndsp=28&ved=1t:429,r:31,s:100,i:97
Then I just have random bits and bobs that create the atmosphere. I'm buying an ammo-box that was used in WW2 because I live near an army store...
I'm also considering buying a big tapestry rug but that's just a thought.
So what do you think?
I already have lots of bunting/flags around my room and these are my curtains, which I am in love with: http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?q=next+union+jack+curtains&um=1&hl=en&sa=N&tbo=d&biw=1024&bih=677&tbm=isch&tbnid=TAph2qsUInulvM:&imgrefurl=http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NEXT-Girls-Bedroom-Nursery-Tab-Top-Curtains-UNION-JACK-HEART-Red-53x54-135x137-/180818599845&docid=XeY6G8YdUz3z3M&imgurl=http://i.ebayimg.com/t/NEXT-Girls-Bedroom-Nursery-Tab-Top-Curtains-UNION-JACK-HEART-Red-53x54-135x137-/00/s/MTYwMFgxMTk1/%2524(KGrHqN,!gsE8pHJOvzgBPO!eSSZw!~~60_35.JPG&w=224&h=300&ei=ONbQUJ16iofQBeG3gNAP&zoom=1&iact=rc&dur=3&sig=112617800466769165905&page=1&tbnh=144&tbnw=108&start=0&ndsp=28&ved=1t:429,r:2,s:0,i:94&tx=54&ty=83

Answer
Your room sounds like one a quirky-adorable teenage girl in a Wes Anderson movie would have. I mean that as a compliment. : )
I think it sounds fantastic, though I would caution you about painting your entire room in dark green. For one, green is a very tricky color to get just right. It can easily resemble green algae, split pea soup, or the walls of a dentist office if it's not the perfect tone with the right lighting. I speak from experience with this, since one of my rooms (divorced parents = two rooms) is an unfortunate Shrek color green, and the other looks exactly like a waiting room at a doctor's office. Dark green can be beautiful, and it can be depressing. Another con of a dark color is that it will alter the lightness of your room, and it will make your space appear smaller than it is. I would consider just doing one accent wall in an intriguing dark emerald green, and pick a lighter color like cream, soft gray, or beige for the other walls. If you do decide to paint the entire room dark green, then be sure to add in plenty of lighter colors to make the room brighter. The white furniture will look crisp. You could also try putting a paper lantern or a lamp in front of your mirror to reflect the light.
A few jewel-toned colors like ruby red and amethyst would be pretty. Adding some soft, feminine touches like a vase of flowers would be appealing.
