If you're looking to get really creative, I can help.

It really does depend on your style, I have one for artistic and unique one for a beachy sort of feel and one for girly. (These are all for bedrooms but if you are doing other rooms you can interpret)

ARTISTIC AND UNIQUE
You can buy fabric mannequins basically every dress drop these days. Get a couple of those. Take your time painting them, with mime faces, crosses where the mouths should be, and statement pieces like that. Dress them if you want, preferably in black body suits looks best, but you can also get creative with this. Position them on small wooden posts you have painted black or white already in different places around the room so that it looks as if they are either posing or doing some activity you enjoy. Hang one with strings from the roof, too, this looks really interesting. Finish by taking a few black and white artistic shots of you and/or friends, and get them printed on to canvas, then hang them at interesting places.

GIRLY
This is a really great one for a room.
Have you ever seen those big butterflies/dragonflies that I think are done with tights being filled up and tied, and wire wings filled in with fabric? These look really great hung from the roof. If you know how to do paper mache, it is quite easy to make toadstools, after making and painting, position somewhere in your room. Buy a dressmakers fabric mannequin, and position to be sitting on top of the big toadstool. (preferably a childrens doll) This looks really great once you dress the doll, and even better if you fixedly place a teacup in her hands. Take a really bright, fun picture of yourself and/or friends and have it printed in full colour on to canvas, and hang it up. Finish by placing a few pretty ornaments,candles,lava lamps at different shelves and bedside tables and whatnot.

BEACH-SORT-OF THEME
This is quite difficult to do, but looks amazing, if not strange.
Get a dress maker children mannequin, and dress it in a small swimsuit, shorts, or any summery clothes. You can buy this at select interior design places (i found one in phillip island) or make your own out of paper mache if you have the patience: Waves. Whether 3D or in poster form, have some waves at the side of your room. Place the dress makers doll on an old boogie board (mini surf board) just in front of the waves. Move its arms as if its surfing. Have a sign (paper, on a wooden stick) saying 'surfs up' in lazy handwriting black marker. Get another dressmakers doll (just as an extra addition) and dress it in an old girls dress. Place it somewhere in the room, and put in its hand a paper mache or just toy bought ice-cream cone. Make the next out of cardboard. A 'thinking bubble' basic shape, cut out, and coming just above the head by some thrift store bought wire. In the bubble, write something like: Yum, or, Summer Days. Finish the room (if this is allowed!!) by buying a few fish at your local pet store (they sell near me for about $5) in different sized and shaped fish bowls (clear glass) with colorful rocks at the bottom.

EXTRA DESIGN!! JAPANESE- FOR ANIME TYPE LOVERS!!
You can buy from select stores (also found in fountain gate, and even at a store once in fountain gate, melbourne.) a light up cherry blossom tree of respectable size. (if you save up hopefully!!!) Make a few posters (on canvas) of cute phrases written in hiragana, or kanji. (maybe.) You can look this up. If you have the patience to do origami, it can be very lovely to hang a few origami medicine balls around your room. (google this if you're not sure what it means). Buy some cute stuffed toys (smiley faces, happy faces) to place on your bed, and finish by getting some cute anime pics printed on to canvas.

EXTRA EXTRA DESIGN: QUICK AND EASY TO DO 'NORMAL' ANTIQUE SORT OF ROOM.
If you collect a lot of old, quirky victorian type furniture and nicknacks, this looks really nice. Just hand some nice oil paintings around furniture, and add a small oval mirror with a nice gold or ebony frame. If you have the money and time, buy a large dress makers doll, and position towards the back of the room. You can dress it in gowns, either bought or hand made, and lace and whatnot if you are feeling creative. Finish with a party-shop-bought wig or bonnet, preferably a low bun if you are going with a wig. This looks really great.

Hope this helped, I want to be an interior designer someday, and sorry that they are so complicated and weird. :) Good luck decorating!

Donald asks…

I need help designing a teen girls bedroom?

There are 2 girls that share a large room. Both girls are very creative and artsy. They love high fashion and music...I guess you could describe them as "alternative". There are really no guidlines except that they are painting the room a deep teal (&they will not be using purple or gold) But other wise I just need some help.

Thanks in advance!

Michael asks…

what design would be the best to have in a girls room?

okay well my two cousins are away for a trip and so me and my parents are designing/remodeling their room. One is eight years old and she is into princess and the other one is 15 years old and she is into what is now modern, like retro stuff. Alright so unfortunately they have to share room. They both agreed with the sky, baby blue background color on the walls and white on the ceiling and baseboards,doors, bathroom, and around the windows. Okay so then just a few hours ago her little cousin called me saying if we can add crown designs but then i hear her older sister screaming - so basically there is an argument. Alright so now i want to know what can i do to make them both pleased/satisfied? I was thinking of having diamonds going around the walls, and then at the bottom of the wall add some flowers but my older cousin doesn't really like flower things. So what kind of designs will go just perfect with them both?

P.S they are not into hearts, flowers, crown, princess, splatter paint.
i forgot to mention im not willing to do splits because its not going to look right.

admin answers:

I saw on a show the other day when they were redoing a house and had the same problem with 2 girls in the same room with different tastes and they did this:split the room, have the whole room one color or each wall a different color(my perspective i like the bright colors so i have each wall in my room a different color: orange,pink,blue,lime green) on one side put the crowns or a big crown and on the other side decorate it for the older girl i would say bright colors hope this helps

Carol asks…

What color should I paint my room based on this room design?

I'm redoing my room this week, and I was wondering what color I should paint it based on this conforter set thing http://store.delias.com/browse.do?categoryID=1979&shopnavTrack=roomwares.starstruck

My choices are between mint green, blue (same color as the blue on the comforter) or light purple. What do you think?

I don't want it pink or yellow because pink is really common for girls rooms and I don't like the color yellow (no offense to anyone who likes it!)

Please help

Any of your color choices will look great with your bedding. Choose the one that looks the best with your furniture which will be against it and consider what you will be using as sheets. You will get 100 different answers to this as it is a personal preference.
Why not get some white poster board and paint one of each of the two colors you like the best. Then, live with it for a few days to help you make your decision. That way you will be able to see how each looks at different times of the day. Choose the one that looks the best at the time of day that you spend the most time in your room.
I personally like the lavender, like the plush rug shown or the square where it says "Rock your room out". If your furniture has a golden wood tone, consider the blue. White furniture will look fine with any of your choices.
