Answer
It really depends on your daughter's taste, age, likes, dislikes. You didn't mention how old she is but from the picture you've chosen, I'm going to say she's a little girl (under the age of 10).
Does she like pastel colors? If not, then that room won't do it for her.
That being said, there are many things to consider when choosing colors for a room, apart from what the person's favorite color is.
There are colors that exicte and make it hard to fall asleep (red, bright yellow, orange and bright royal blue).
There are colors that relax and help to unwind and fall asleep easily (soft blue, soft pink, soft green).
And then you have to take into account the placement of the room. Yep. If the room is facing south and receives lots of sun, a warm color will make the room hotter and it will feel suffocating (red, orange, yellow). If the room is facing north, then cold colors will make the room feel even colder (blue, ice green, bright lavendar).
Color really does affect how you feel. It's no mistake that most hospitals have soft green, pink and blue rooms...
Okay... now for my personal opinion. Unless your daughter is around the age of 4 or 5, she'll tire quickly of the decor in the room you've chosen. Seeing as how kids change so quickly, you might be better to opt for something less childish. Consider using more teen-ish bedding and adding youthful touches (stuffed animals, toys, paintings, etc.) until she grows into the decor. This way, you'll save money and you won't be frustrated.

Whatever you do decide on, I'm sure your daughter will be thrilled... and she will be, if you keep her in mind when choosing the decor.
Enjoy your new space!

Any ideas for designing a mural for a teenage girl?
Claudz
I'm choosing a mural for my bedroom but can only find children's designs. Anyone know any sites that have older designs? I'm thinking I might have to draw it myself but I don't actually know what I want..any ideas? Thanks
Answer
I might go with something abstract. You're a teenager, so your mind is going to change over the next few years about your room (from 13 - 18, my bedroom looked different about every other week). If you go with something abstract, you only have to worry about getting tired of the colors, instead of the whole picture. I would go on e-bay to look or just draw/paint your own.
