my colors are black white and pink. and i have a single room, so i dont have to worry about what a roomate thinks. what are some inexpesive cute things i can do to decorate my room? so far i have two small posters.
Answer
I just re-did my bedroom in my house black white and pink! What a great idea! I am helplessly in love with old Hollywood movie stars, so I painted my room "the cats meow" Its a very light but beautiful pink the trim is white and I ordered pictures off allposters.com. I ordered Black and White vintage posters of Marilyn Monroe, Grace Kelly and Audrey Hepburn. I framed them in BLACK frames. I also went to target and bought a few black candleabras (those kind of gothic looking candle stick holders) I also bought a bunch of those flamelss candles and scattered them around the room. I went with a black and white polka dot comforter which was pretty cheap from Target as well.
I also got a lot of my photos converted into black and white and framed them as well. Also, you can buy "quotes" that stick to your wall (but come off very easily) I bought one that says, "Always kiss me goodnight" in black above my bedframe. I bought a black and white light fixture from TJ Maxx-- you wouldn't believe the amazing things they have for so cheap.
Ikea has really nice mirrors, too. I bought a lenth ways mirror that has light pink polka dots on it. They have really nice black fixtures, too!!
Lastly, you shud buy a black and white checkered rug for the center of your room...that will be the cherry on top of the sundae.
Have fun with it! Your dorm will look great! and good luck in school!

Answer
To brighten your room and make it appear larger hang your mirror anywhere on the wall opposite of the window and arrange your furniture in separate areas and decorate in each space. For a girly touch drape a lighted feather lei over your mirror.

Make a cute accent pillow for your bed with the remaining fabric to tie everything together. Easy to sew with a needle and thread if you can't use a sewing machine.
Cut fabric 13x30"
Fold the fabric in half, in-side-out so the color/print is inside.
Sew 1/2" in, along the edge on the two long sides, leaving the short end open.
Turn pillow cover right-side-out so the color/print is on the outside.
Fill with batting or even with a sweater/shirt you don't wear anymore.
Then sew up the opening.
If you have a tv/stand, place it on the wall across from the foot of your bed.
Hang an impressive light-up poster on an open wall.
