So I want to re do my bedroom but there is a problem. I am almost 18 and I share a room with my 13 year old sister. We cant agree on anything! I want a more sophisticated room and she wants a young teen room. How can I incorporate what we both like to make a room that we would both love? She loves bright neon colors and I like calmer colors. She is a justin bieber freak and has posters of him everywhere! I dont like posters (i dont mind framed pictures i just dont like posters).
The comforter that im getting for christmas is this one: http://www.target.com/Home-8-pc-Bed-Set-Flocked/dp/B002OC742O/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&searchView=list&keywords=home%208pc%20flocked%20floral%20brown%2Fblue&fromGsearch=true&sr=1-1&qid=1292473845&rh=&searchRank=target104545&id=Home%208-pc%20Bed%20Set%20Flocked&node=1038576%7C1287991011&searchSize=30&searchPage=1&searchNodeID=1038576%7C1287991011&searchBinNameList=subjectbin%2Cprice%2Ctarget_com_primary_color-bin%2Ctarget_com_size-bin%2Ctarget_com_brand-bin&frombrowse=0
And I dont know which one she should get (any ideas?)
Please give me ideas. Thank you!

Shelbie,
If you're looking at the set that is black/white, it won't fly with your sister.
If it's the blue/grey embroidered set, good choice! It's lovely!(I hope this is THE ONE you're getting
Now you have to get sneaky.
Take your sis for lunch & a manicure. Let her know that you realize that she's growing up and becoming a lovely young woman.Her body is changing, boys will soon be appearing on the front porch, and her tastes in "heroes" will change, too. (You and I know that Justin is never going to call her.) Let her know that the 7th & 8th grades at school will be a very important time of her life, and getting on the "A" list of popularity will require some sophistication in her mannerisms, her attire, her hairstyles & make-up. And of course, in her personal environment. When she brings girl friends home, the cutesy pink & lime green are going to seem very babyish to her friends.
Your shared room needs to reflect her maturity and good taste to run with the "In Crowd"
Rent the Audrey Hepburn movie "My Fair Lady,". Watch it with little sis. Then visit www.allposters.com for the poster of Ms Hepburn from that movie It's in black& white where she is wearing the stunning dress and hat at the horse races. Promise to buy it for her ONLY after she removes the posters of Justin from the walls!
Maybe matching bedding would encourage her, maybe not, or take her to Target and hekp her find a more suitable set for herself that will coordinate with yours.

14 year old girls bedroom?

Okay. I have done my room at my mom's house, but I need to do my room at dad's. I am getting my step-mom's bedrooom suite and am keeping my entertainment system. The rest is out the door.
The room is currently blue with white clouds, royal blue carpet and brown curtains that don't reach the windows bottom. There isn't blinds, but there is shades that pull up. I don't have any bedding and no design ideas. The furniture is a light brown wood tone and is good condition. straight lines. please don't say websites. i want inspiration ideas not links. thanks so much. i need paint color fabrics, theme, decor and everything else. LOVEDS

You could do a sea theme. Either under the sea, with the walls being like coming up to the surface (like in the Little Mermaid or the Spongebob Movie), or a beach theme. You could also do island getaway (Lilo and Stitch)if you're into those bold colors. Curtains can always be changed. You can get some inexpensive panels from Walmart/Target/Kmart. Try the dollar store for your accessories. They have a lot of those kind of things. I'm not really sure how much you can spend, so this is the least expensive I can think of. You can keep the royal blue ocean floor. You can use different shades of blue for you bedding (stick with solids and throw a little sandy brown in there) and get some shells, sand in some glass votive holders(dollar store) or go island and get some hibiscus and luau type stuff. A good cheap way to get photos is priniting online or getting a calendar and cutting the pictures to fit.
