Girls Rooms Ideas

Paul asks…

What are some cute ideas for girls rooms? light colors?

Hey! We're re-doing my room. And my mom demands that we use lighter colors cuz' my room gets the most sunlight. So no bright pinks! Does anyone have some cute color schemes or themes for a girls room? I'm not picky about the color.
ok, not that light

If you're in this for the long haul, like through high school and maybe even college, try a theme that is not just a fad, like "My Kitty" or "Strawberry Shortcake". HOWEVER if you DO like either of those, pick a more mature grand scheme. EG: Like the new Strawberry Shortcake? Use a light green (sage w/ a tiny bit of yellow in in, but not lime) on the walls and then a slightly dark berry type red for any trim, or a couple of items of furniture. Then you could use some 'flower' type things and 'strawberry' type things for the most of your 'knick knacks' and bedding / window treatment, and throw in a few of the catchy Strawberry Shortcake items.
As you get older, you can keep the color scheme, and maybe add some same green and berry plaid for the bedding / window treatment, with a green / berry flowery bed skirt and valance, and remove the Strawberry Shortcake items. As you get older, you might want to darken the berry items to almost burgundy - easily done w/ out stripping any wood/paint, and change the green in the walls to a more sage color, also easily done. Be sure to add for pop a big silk HOT PINK and LIME GREEN pillow.

Cool, bright painting ideas for teen girl's rooms?

Play around with the Sherwin Williams color visualizer to help you imagine how the colors will look together. It is the best paint visualizer on the web, imho. I like how their color palette is laid out, I like that you can search by color family & color name, the "painted" rooms look the most realistic, and it suggests coordinating color schemes. You can literally spend hours:

I think "ligonier tan" (# 7717) might be a good choice.

You can take a photo of your house & upload it to the makeover gallery on this website:

You can get color suggestions & for $5 they'll photoshop them onto your room so that you can get an idea of what it will look like.

Use your imagination, paint scenery, abstract objects, modern art.
Use the different brushes, sponges, duster, etc
Try splattering, strong strokes, light strokes,
Add the quotes in places, lyrics from songs,

Your mother will want to kill me for this suggestion.
