i am 13 and i want to redecorate my small lilac room. it has a lilac carpet and a big bed. ideas??
it is a very small room with lilac walls and carpet. it has a big bed which
takes up most of the room. l am not allowed to get new carpet but l am
allowed new bedding, accessories and maybe some funky wallpaper for 1
wall. l would like a really colorful cool room. l like nice lampshades
door curtains and fairy lights. l am living in ireland so l need to find
some online stores apart from ebay that deliver to ireland. please help me
l need ideas!!!
Firstly, I must point out that I am in Australia & a lot of the
sites I have listed will be in the US, but many, like ebay, ikea, target,
you will of course have in Ireland, & the other sites just use them for
inspiration.
Ok, Wallpaper for one wall would REALLY help, (really), to break up the
lilac floor & walls. So then, you would have 2 large features in ur room, the bed coverings & the feature wall, if you did wallpaper you'd need to be sure the bed & wallpaper worked together of course, & then sort out the lampshades, door curtains etc. The other thing you could do, is paint stipes on the lilac, like this.(wait for the 'after' picture to come up) .. http://hgtv.ca/homeheist/Galleries/gallery13.aspx you could even cheat & just put up tape for ur stripes, a bit lazy, but stripes aren't as easy as you'd think, however if you do paint stripes, once you have the masking tape in place, do one coat of clear before painting the colour, this stops the colour you are painting from seeping underneath the masking tape & leaving you with a very crooked edges. Other options, get a wall mural like these ones, scroll down & have a good look there are some amazing ones in there, http://search.ebay.com.au/search/search.dll?sofocus=bs&sbrftog=1&dfsp=1&catref=C12&from=R40&satitle=wall+paper&sacat=10033%26catref%3DC6&sargn=-1%26saslc%3D2&sadis=200&fpos=2541&sabfmts=1&ga10244=10425&ftrt=1&ftrv=1&sabdlo=&sabdhi=&saprclo=&saprchi=&fsop=1%26fsoo%3D1&coaction=compare&copagenum=1&coentrypage=search Next, have a look at these sites for inspiration, http://ikea.com/gb/en/ http://pbteen.com/ http://store.delias.com/browse.do?catego. http://fredflare.com/customer/home_bigba. http://bedbathandbeyond.com/nodePage. http://wakeupfrankie.com/ http://girlsthemebedrooms.com/ http://teensthemes.com/ http://kohls.com/kohlsStore/furnitureandhomedecor.jsp http://bedbathandbeyond.com/default.. http://teensthemes.com/ http://dormbuys.com/ http://www3.jcpenney.com/jcp/X3.aspx?Dep. http://target.com/Dorm-Furniture http://urbanoutfitters.com/urban/catalog/category.jsp?navAction=jump&navCount=182&itemCount=&id=APARTMENT_FURNISH Have fun with it!
Have a look online or in magazines/catalogues for bedding. When
you find some you like you can co-ordinate the rest of ur bedroom
accessories with it. You can go for pinks, blues, darker purples, silver
whatever you see that you like. A nice floaty voile on the window instead
of heavy curtains, also I know its the wrong time of year but xmas
decorations such as sparkly beads, strings & fairy lights can look pretty
around a mirror or ur headboard. I got some fluffy lilac fairy lights a couple of years ago for my daughters room when she was into lilac.
Buy paint, open paint, throw paint, cover room, no more lilac
