Bedroom design theme? Antique furniture in teen bedroom/ apartment?

Fluer DeLi

I have a beautiful antique bevelled glass cabinet from my grandma. It is supposed to be used as a china closet from fine dishes and such (some of which I have also). I currently have it in my bedroom because my Mom said since I wanted "the piece of garbage" I would have to keep it in my room. As a teen, I am trying to style my bedroom as an apartment (futons instead of a bed). I dont really want to put all the dishes in the cabinet as it would look too weird and formal in a bedroom, but I would like a whimsical display. Any ideas on what I can display? Any decorating ideas for the room?

Here's the cabinet:

Answer
A couple of old teddy bears on the bottom shelf with perhaps a lady's fan open between them,a necklace or two on another shelf, or any jewellery in open boxes it does not have to be real..a nice leather bound book, pick one up at a second hand book store, something the size of a modern paperback..a silver photo-frame and photo, one or two really nice pieces of the china you already have, a handful of semi-precious stones or agates..you can buy them in the market or on ebay very cheaply..even a couple of ticket stubs from an event or journey that has special memories for you. Turn it into a curio cabinet in fact and take your time over selecting what goes in..pretty things or things that are precious to you for some other reason, things that tell a story about your likes and taste and your life so far...and, by the way, I think it is one of the more attractive china cabinets I have seen, including that of my own grandmother which I still own.

As for decorating, keep it simple with muted, light coloured walls and then you can go wild with prints, curtains, cushions and even an arrangement of peacock feathers in a big vase. It's your own room so enjoy it.

any ideas for my daughters bedroom?

Sara B

My daughter wants an "elegantly loud" bedroom. She says she wants the color scheme to be pink, lime and black with accents of aqua, (or something like that) and for it to last well into her teen years. Any ideas on what I could get and where I could find it?

Answer
this is not really a room thing.. but its kinda a decoration that she could put on her wall. get four photo frames (different sizes). paint them to whatever color themed room. glue all the frames together. (randomly, doesn't have to be perfect) get a small mirror and put it behind one of the frames (doesn't have to fit perfectly). get a sheet of nice paper with designs on it and put it behind another frame. for the other two, just add pictures. i have one in my room and it looks beautiful.

another thing that you could do is like a decorated light. get some Christmas lights (the long ones with little bulbs). buy some fake butterflies or flowers ( you can get them at art stores). stick them along the light randomly. wait for it to dry and hang it around your window..

it looks amazing =D

hope this kinda helps

How can I decorate my bedroom walls for cheap?

beautiful bedroom photos ideas image

coopermb07

Hello,
we just moved from Germany to the USA and had to spend a lot of money on the move. Now I don't have a whole lot of money left for decoration, and our bedroom walls in our apartment are just plane white and boring. I would like to hang some black and white art or pictures. How can I do something like this my selfe for cheap? It doesn't have to be black and white though. I'm open for everything. Does anybody have any idea? I hope you can help me! Thank you so much.

Answer
I like the first answer but if thats not what you want to do, you could paint (or have) a mural painted on the wall actually from a photo, your favorite painting etc. in black and white....or you could put fabric on the walls, its really not as bad as it sounds. Depending on how its done, it can actually turn out beautiful! You could also use stencils and paint patterns on them....another thing you could do is paint words on the walls... like ''dream'' ..... ''imagine'' etc. I know its child like but if its done well and in the right colors, your room will actually have a more relaxed atmosphere. I read that one in an article on hgtv. Anyway good luck!

another suggestion:
Hollywood glamour in my mind speaks crystals/glass, silver tones, with light pastel colors(candice olsen style). Think of the Victoria's Secret boxes/bags. I'd consider the victoria's secet color scheme. Maybe two shades of pale pink stripes, vertical or horizontal on the walls w/a pearl color trim. Add crystal, silver and black accents/accessories and a beautiful cream color long haired rug. With black and white photos of Old Hollywood Stars.

How to make your home look more "homey" without spending a fortune?

beautiful bedroom photos ideas image

Q. Hey everyone! I just got married a couple months ago and my husband has been in California for a little over a month (hes a marine) He comes back in a few days and I am so excited... but I want to do something that makes our home look a little more...like a home...if you know what I mean. But I don't want to have to spend a lot of money. I just bought a new living room suit. Any ideas??? Thanks.

Answer
This project will be fun because you can find all kinds of things without spending a lot.

First, think of pillows, cushy ones. Our local Chinatown had beautiful pillow shams on sale like 2 for $10.

Then look around for some favorite photos and have them enlarged and buy inexpensive frames from Ross for Less or Costco. Think about painting something like one wall.

Buy fresh flowers from Farmers' Markets or a store like Albertsons where they good prices. Don't leave out the house plants. Instead of buying expensive vases for your plants, use odd items.

Lucky Bamboo is great because it requires dim or no light at all to thrive.

Stores usually have a department where they put below price merchandise. Check there for rugs and such.

When I was hosting the Superbowl Party, I was kind of broke but the house needed sprucing up. I looked around and picked out a couple of things I could do to add some pizzazz. Lucky me, all I had to do was change out plastic lightplate switches and change them to brass. Then I determined it was a good time to change the cheap doorknobs on the bedroom doors so I bought matching brass knobs. Easy, easy and cheap!

I found some really colorful throw rugs for the bath and kitchen at Anna's Linens and things.

The dollar store had nice candles and odds and ends that worked well.

One other thing you can do is find colorful or earthtoned heavy fabric to throw around on the sofa and chairs.

How can I get a surfer style bedroom?

HollyPolly

I love brands like Fat Face, Billabong, Roxy etc. and the whole surfer look but I was wondering how to get that style in my bedroom? I've only got a tiny bedroom but I'm up for any suggestions - please add photos if you can.

Answer
I would definitely stay away from creating a too cheesy surfer room. For example, I was looking up some pictures for you and there were cheap grass skirts as the bedskirt for the bed and little tiny surfer lamps and stuffed monkeys and dolphins and stuff....cheesy. To make a gooood surfer room, I'd choose a bright color that you like for the walls or maybe two as in the picture provided below. The room below has lime green and orange but if you like other bright colors better, that'd be okay too. When you look for room examples like this, I always just use the picture as a shell and interchange my color preferences, etc. So paint the walls a bright color, I actually like the blue in the second picture provided for the walls. You'll want to keep white in your room too..the molding around the room, in the bedspread, maybe the bed frame, the dresser and anything you can really. Because you have a really bright wall, you need that white to offset it and make it more beachy and light. So chose your bedspread. There are plenty of bedspreads that are actually billabong and roxy beach spreads if you want that. You can also chose a hawaiian print theme, but I feel like that's borderline cheesy as well. If I were you, I would choose a full white bedspread in a light fabric. Choosing a completely white bedspread will also make the room and your bed feel and look bigger. It's really your preference though, as I know some people love the hawaiian print. I love the wicker in the first room provided. And I love how they painted it, but I also just love wicker plain. So if you're tight on cash or you just like the wicker not painted, just keep it like it is. Wicker just reminds me of outdoor furniture you'd have at a beach house though. I'm not sure what color your carpet is or if you have wood floors. It'd be ideal if you had wood flooring and then I'd add a straw beach mat as the rug at the foot of the bed or at the side of the bed, depending on the positioning of the bed. I'd get white lamps like the one in the first bedroom provided, the two inbetween the two beds on the nightstand. Again, I'm not sure how you are on money, but if you can afford it, I'd definitely splurge on a full sized surfboard to put somewhere in your room, behind a wicker chair or in a corner by itself. I'll provide a link to a cheaper board (in the world of surfboards it's considered very cheap.) I'd also get some beach themed decor. I like the word beach spelled out above the bed in the second picture. I also love the wood nightstand in the second bedroom, you can see the top slats of it, but I would paint it white. I was recently at Marshalls and they had extremely nice and sophisticated beach themed decor that could fill up probably two to three rooms. If you have a Marshalls by you, you should take a look there. Also, TJ Maxx. If not though, I'm sure you can find really cute beach stuff online. Even if you went to a craft store and bought a hurricane candle holder, a pillar candle, and sand and/or shells, that would be awesome to put on your nightstand. You could also buy a cheap starfish and shells online too to put around your room. The options are endless!! :) Here are all the links:

How can I decorate my bedroom walls for cheap?

beautiful bedroom photos ideas image

coopermb07

Hello,
we just moved from Germany to the USA and had to spend a lot of money on the move. Now I don't have a whole lot of money left for decoration, and our bedroom walls in our apartment are just plane white and boring. I would like to hang some black and white art or pictures. How can I do something like this my selfe for cheap? It doesn't have to be black and white though. I'm open for everything. Does anybody have any idea? I hope you can help me! Thank you so much.

Answer
I like the first answer but if thats not what you want to do, you could paint (or have) a mural painted on the wall actually from a photo, your favorite painting etc. in black and white....or you could put fabric on the walls, its really not as bad as it sounds. Depending on how its done, it can actually turn out beautiful! You could also use stencils and paint patterns on them....another thing you could do is paint words on the walls... like ''dream'' ..... ''imagine'' etc. I know its child like but if its done well and in the right colors, your room will actually have a more relaxed atmosphere. I read that one in an article on hgtv. Anyway good luck!

http://www.flickr.com/photos/brightblade/152727355/ (can paint your bedroom walls in a light chocolate brown, look for white furniture or you can paint exsisting furniture in a antique white finish...accent with silver, crystal/glass...and other pale colors (like pale gray, gold for art and pillows)

http://www.utahluxury.com/blog/2008/03/06/hollywood-glamour-entertainers-dream-home/ (look at the 2nd and 3rd picture)

another suggestion:
Hollywood glamour in my mind speaks crystals/glass, silver tones, with light pastel colors(candice olsen style). Think of the Victoria's Secret boxes/bags. I'd consider the victoria's secet color scheme. Maybe two shades of pale pink stripes, vertical or horizontal on the walls w/a pearl color trim. Add crystal, silver and black accents/accessories and a beautiful cream color long haired rug. With black and white photos of Old Hollywood Stars.

hope this helps good luck:)

What color furniture would go well with dark purple and gray walls?

beautiful bedroom photos ideas image

Brenda

I recently painted my bedroom an "elephant skin" grey with a very dark purple as my accent wall. I need help deciding what color furniture would look best; My first two choices would be either black wood or white wood furniture but would the black furniture make the room too dark or would the white furniture stand out too much in the room? Please help!! All opinions and ideas are extremely appreciated! :)

Also, any suggestions for bed sheets and whatnot?
Thanks!!

Answer
White furniture would be too stark in contrast to the walls; however, I think furniture with a coffee or ebony finish would look great with dark gray and purple. Not convinced? Buy an accent table and bring it home to see how it looks. You can always return it if you don't like it.

For sheets and other soft furnishings, try Overstock.com which features beautiful items at discount prices with little to no shipping costs. Keep the color of your items in the same purple and gray colors but move up the scale to lighter shades of them. That will balance the other dark items in your room. And don't forget lighting. Pick up some gorgeous inexpensive lamps to lighten things up.

In general, when in doubt, look through photos of rooms in catalogs, magazines and online (HGTV.com has a ton of room photos) and when you see something you like, use the same color combinations and textures. Have fun with it!

Adding cute little touches to a teen bedroom.?

yo

I need help adding small touches to the decorations in my bedroom. I don't like candles very much. My room is bright blue, green, pink, and orange. I want decorations that aren't the common decorations you see in every other bedroom. Does anyone have ideas?

Thanks!

Answer
Get crafty.

Piece together plastic canvas in colors that go with your room... (or cover them in fabric) ....Then use cardstock from the scrapbook store to make your own photo frames to hang onto the wall.
Just use two pieces of plastic canvas. Cut out the middle of one then cover both with the same fabric. Insert a piece of cardstock to make your own custom funky picture frames.
You can fashion these anyway you wish... the possibilites are endless. Your friends will want some as soon as they see them.
Get creative.

You could also decoupage... This simply means you buy some decoupage glue.... put the glue down first... then add the paper you want.... let dry.
Come back later and cover with a couple more coats of the glue.
This gives a very cool look.

If you want to make the item look 'antique'.... simply rub it with a tea bag first.... let dry ...then add the first coat of glue. Add paper... rub with tea bag all over again. Then add the next coat of glue.

Find some funky boxes with lids. Shoe boxes would work fine. Cover in fabric and stack in a corner as high as you wish. This is a great storage option and will look pretty too. If you want to cover them with something that will wipe clean... use wall paper or vinyl that you cut off an old couch ... be a salvager. Look for free stuff that is being thrown away and make something beautiful out of it.

You could make funky decorative storage boxes ...or purses... out of cigar boxes. Some crafters sell cigar box purses for hundreds of dollars.

Check out the craft stores... hardware stores (especially the wood working section)... scrapbook stores... and antique malls for ideas. Don't forget Goodwill or the Salvation Army... Dollar Stores are great too.

How to make your home look more "homey" without spending a fortune?

Q. Hey everyone! I just got married a couple months ago and my husband has been in California for a little over a month (hes a marine) He comes back in a few days and I am so excited... but I want to do something that makes our home look a little more...like a home...if you know what I mean. But I don't want to have to spend a lot of money. I just bought a new living room suit. Any ideas??? Thanks.

Answer
This project will be fun because you can find all kinds of things without spending a lot.

First, think of pillows, cushy ones. Our local Chinatown had beautiful pillow shams on sale like 2 for $10.

Then look around for some favorite photos and have them enlarged and buy inexpensive frames from Ross for Less or Costco. Think about painting something like one wall.

Buy fresh flowers from Farmers' Markets or a store like Albertsons where they good prices. Don't leave out the house plants. Instead of buying expensive vases for your plants, use odd items.

Lucky Bamboo is great because it requires dim or no light at all to thrive.

Stores usually have a department where they put below price merchandise. Check there for rugs and such.

When I was hosting the Superbowl Party, I was kind of broke but the house needed sprucing up. I looked around and picked out a couple of things I could do to add some pizzazz. Lucky me, all I had to do was change out plastic lightplate switches and change them to brass. Then I determined it was a good time to change the cheap doorknobs on the bedroom doors so I bought matching brass knobs. Easy, easy and cheap!

I found some really colorful throw rugs for the bath and kitchen at Anna's Linens and things.

The dollar store had nice candles and odds and ends that worked well.

One other thing you can do is find colorful or earthtoned heavy fabric to throw around on the sofa and chairs.

How can I get a surfer style bedroom?

beautiful bedroom photos ideas image

HollyPolly

I love brands like Fat Face, Billabong, Roxy etc. and the whole surfer look but I was wondering how to get that style in my bedroom? I've only got a tiny bedroom but I'm up for any suggestions - please add photos if you can.

Answer
I would definitely stay away from creating a too cheesy surfer room. For example, I was looking up some pictures for you and there were cheap grass skirts as the bedskirt for the bed and little tiny surfer lamps and stuffed monkeys and dolphins and stuff....cheesy. To make a gooood surfer room, I'd choose a bright color that you like for the walls or maybe two as in the picture provided below. The room below has lime green and orange but if you like other bright colors better, that'd be okay too. When you look for room examples like this, I always just use the picture as a shell and interchange my color preferences, etc. So paint the walls a bright color, I actually like the blue in the second picture provided for the walls. You'll want to keep white in your room too..the molding around the room, in the bedspread, maybe the bed frame, the dresser and anything you can really. Because you have a really bright wall, you need that white to offset it and make it more beachy and light. So chose your bedspread. There are plenty of bedspreads that are actually billabong and roxy beach spreads if you want that. You can also chose a hawaiian print theme, but I feel like that's borderline cheesy as well. If I were you, I would choose a full white bedspread in a light fabric. Choosing a completely white bedspread will also make the room and your bed feel and look bigger. It's really your preference though, as I know some people love the hawaiian print. I love the wicker in the first room provided. And I love how they painted it, but I also just love wicker plain. So if you're tight on cash or you just like the wicker not painted, just keep it like it is. Wicker just reminds me of outdoor furniture you'd have at a beach house though. I'm not sure what color your carpet is or if you have wood floors. It'd be ideal if you had wood flooring and then I'd add a straw beach mat as the rug at the foot of the bed or at the side of the bed, depending on the positioning of the bed. I'd get white lamps like the one in the first bedroom provided, the two inbetween the two beds on the nightstand. Again, I'm not sure how you are on money, but if you can afford it, I'd definitely splurge on a full sized surfboard to put somewhere in your room, behind a wicker chair or in a corner by itself. I'll provide a link to a cheaper board (in the world of surfboards it's considered very cheap.) I'd also get some beach themed decor. I like the word beach spelled out above the bed in the second picture. I also love the wood nightstand in the second bedroom, you can see the top slats of it, but I would paint it white. I was recently at Marshalls and they had extremely nice and sophisticated beach themed decor that could fill up probably two to three rooms. If you have a Marshalls by you, you should take a look there. Also, TJ Maxx. If not though, I'm sure you can find really cute beach stuff online. Even if you went to a craft store and bought a hurricane candle holder, a pillar candle, and sand and/or shells, that would be awesome to put on your nightstand. You could also buy a cheap starfish and shells online too to put around your room. The options are endless!! :) Here are all the links:

How do i create a Greek themed bedroom?

beautiful bedroom photos ideas image

F@$H!#N

How would i go about creating a greek themed bedroom. I was thinking either beach-y or mythological.

1. What colors do i use?
2. What do i put in the room to make it feel like Greece?

Thanks :D
Please provide links and pictures. Thank You!

Answer
Well the colours that I associate with greece is Blue and white, not only because of the flag but from the fact that a lot of the buildings are painted white with a bluRIroof.
http://images.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=http://www.theodora.com/wfb/photos/greece/greece3.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.theodora.com/wfb/photos/greece/greece_photos_02.html&usg=__KFkZhqgTjNAhKgm5fFoqxviI1QM=&h=525&w=700&sz=80&hl=en&start=3&um=1&tbnid=y3S-hPgbZITobM:&tbnh=105&tbnw=140&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dgreece%26hl%3Den%26rlz%3D1T4SNYK_en-GBGB270GB271%26um%3D1
Like that :)

I wouls say that a good Idea is to paint 3 walls in white and one feautre wall that beautiful blue colour :)
Also I would say get large(ish) pictures/posters of greece, I know that places print canvases with your choice of photo so maybe you could even use one of your own or maybe some of the buildings, beach or the historical aspects e.g. acropolis.

Another colour I tihnk would be nice to mix in is gold as gold and white to me adds to the greek goddess type feel, I would say get white gurtains made out of a thin material and if you have enough space in your room get them longer so that they 'puddle' at the bottom. Also tie them back with some gold ribbon making sure the draping at the windows look good.
For other room accessories I would say just use nice blue and gold things, maybe a white bedcover with blue and gold cushions or throws, maybe even if you could get hold of some greek flag pillows. Also if you have a canopy bed that would be perfect and use a simillar idea to the curtains e.g. drape sort of like this http://images.hayneedle.com/mgen/master:HOOK454.jpg

For things such as desks or bedside tables you can try and get hold of plaster pillars and add a glass top to them as this would really complete the theme.
Ohh and you can find your name in greek and paint it on your blue wall in white paint :)

Make an accent pillow 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.
