Small Bedroom Design Ideas? Hello All! So my parents just found a home to rent and all was well until it was decided I would be the unlucky soul who got the smallest bedroom (kinda figured...as I am the youngest.) I don't have any measurements and I'm really sorry about that but its a complete box shaped room and a very slim "walk in closet" on the left hand side. (everything I am saying is based on an aerial view perspective...if that makes sense) Anywhoo there is one window on the upper left corner and the doorway is parallel to the window. I really need a desk as I do alot of work online but I also want it to be a very "flowy" room. (BUT I REALLY NEED THE DESK!) The bedroom would barely fit a full size bed (take approximately 1 to 2/4ths of the room) so if that gives you a sense of what I'm working with. ~*-_..._-*~ In Summation ~*-_..._-*~ Need Desk Really Tiny Room Please and thank you for ideas. If you need any more info just ask...lol. :)

Any design / color ideas for my small spare bedroom? I have a small spare bedroom that has a twin bed (with a wood frame), an old chest and a couple other pieces that will need to be painted. I was thinking about painting most the furniture along with the wood frame a dark brown. I am still not sure about painting it all but for some reason I think it would work. I am not sure about a good color scheme that would go with the dark brown furniture. I would love it to be fun but not to girlie. I was even thinking about beach colors. There is carpet in the room that is a somewhat light gray with wood trim and one window. I really don't know any ideas or help out there I would really love to hear! Also I was wondering if I should paint the walls all the same color or how the design of the wall could go.

Teenage bedroom design ideas! Please.? Hi! Okay, so I have a really small room, a single bed, empty white walls, an in-built wardrobe, a tv stand & a tv, and a keyboard in that room! Honestly, I don't want to disturb my parents and ask them to buy me some furniture or anything. So can anyone help me, what are some good designs for this really small room of mine, where it won't cost money. I hardly ever use my keyboard, so I wouldn't mind moving that out of my room! I just feel that it's very dull, and as a teenager I want some 'oomph' to it, if you know what I mean! Can anyone suggest some ideas or designs? Please nothing about buying furniture and all that, unless it's something simple I can make myself, but not to complicated as I'm only a teenage girl! p.s I'm not into all that pink and purple colours! Thanks for your help.

Bedroom design ideas for a ten year old girl? Hi! I'm on my older sister's Yahoo account because I'm too young to make my own. Anyways, I'm ten years old and every three to five years I get the design of my bedroom changes. I want it to kind of seem like I'm smart, because thats what I'm known for: My straight A's. A+'s in every class~ :D I don't brag about it, but I don't deny that I'm smart. My favorite color is orange and I love polka dots. My bed sheets don't match orange walls, though. I have a multi-colored bedspread: It's white, brown, blue, green and has all different designs. I also have a blue carpet and blue sparkly curtains. I can't change my furniture, though. Not aloud. I have white furniture and a pink lamp. I have pink walls right now. I just really want a nice room... I have a very small room and all my stuff is cramped into it. So, I basically want a room that's nice and sofisticated but shows I have spice and still has a kid's heart (I'm gonna have this room 'til I'm fifteen >.>). I like blasts of bright colors. Orange, yellow, lime green. Did I give you enough information? :B

And also, what color should I paint it!?

I am currently designing my bedroom and need ideas.? I have a very tight budget, so DIY projects are definitely welcome. I have three light yellow walls and one light blue wall. It is a small bedroom-my furniture consists of a king sized bed, a dresser and a bookshelf (both of those are tall rather than wide-they take up less room that way). I'm looking mainly for ideas of wall art. I don't have a headboard and was thinking of making one myself, but I don't know, since my room is already small it might make it appear smaller. thanks!

Bedroom design/colour ideas? (Pictures included)? For my 17th birthday next month I'm getting my room redecorated and furniture/accessories to go with it like duvet covers ect... I haven't had it decorated since like 8 years ago so I want to make it really really nice and just an awesome room to reflect me :) I have no idea what colours or anything and I'm not great at telling what colours go together so would love some suggestions. I really want it to show my personality so a bit about me: I am a bit quirky/different so want my room to stand out and be different (without looking weird or tacky!) and have some pattern/design/more than one colour I like any bright, happy colours but my faves are: Lime green, Pink, Aqua blue, Deep bright purple but I just want nice room colours so they don't have to be my faves :) I want it to show some personality and look stylish but be simple to paint/wallpaper Here are some pics of my room: (Ha please excuse all the mess! And I know they are a bit dark but it is night time lol I tried to take them of all angles so every wall can be seen, but it's basically a square room with large walls, although it looks really small because i took it on a teeny webcam and couldn't zoom out! I'll also probably change the furniture around when it's decorated) http://s369.photobucket.com/albums/oo131/tiggeroobounce/Room/ SO yeah, sorry this has been long but I would love some colour/theme/pattern suggestions, pictures of examples would be much appreciated! Thank you lots!! :) :)

any design ideas for my bedroom? My bedroom is quite spacious, it's a kind of peachy-pink colour, with a white door and white skirting boards. I have a tall black wardrobe made of wood, a matching bedside table and a tall and thin chest of drawers. (not sure what to call it!) At the top it flips open to reveal a mirror and jewellery holder. I have recently got this stuff and wish to keep it that way. I also have a large bookcase with 16 individual squares. it's pretty hard finding stuff to go onto it! I have came up with my own design idea, tried it out and loved it. I have a normal single bed, with a high base and mattress, but I LOVE things japanese, and wanted a futon since a day bed was too expensive. so I took the mattress off my bed, and lay it on the ground. I then put some wood over the base (so it wouldn't break) and put sleeping bags, throws, blankets and stuff to make it softer. I then put pillows all over it, so it's just a little place to sit, read etc. I put my bedside table beside that and have that as a coffee table, since it's too high to put next to my mattress. I bought a small, black bin and turned it over, and put a lamp on top and placed it next to my mattress. it is very good where it is and I love it. I want to make my room look unique, but also sophisticated, and not piled high with junk. I have a few collections and stuff but I keep them put away. I'm just looking for some basic ideas (mainly for the walls) like a magazine collage on the door. (that's one of the things i plan on doing!) and I am a huge postcard collector, so I might do something with them. thankyou! for some photos of my room to help you,` here are the links: door point of veiw - right: http://www.iaza.com/work/110531C/iaza13653357137200.jpg door point of veiw - left: http://www.iaza.com/work/110531C/iaza13653362132700.jpg bookcase and storage door: http://www.iaza.com/work/110531C/iaza13653326961000.jpg wardrobe, drawers, bedside table and start of sofa thing: http://www.iaza.com/work/110531C/iaza13653326961000.jpg sofa section: http://www.iaza.com/work/110531C/iaza13653382645200.jpg bed section (mattress): http://www.iaza.com/work/110531C/iaza13653396960500.jpg I'm very creative by the way ^^ to see one of my digital drawings (I might make a collage of my drawings!) click below: http://www.iaza.com/work/110531C/iaza13653374760400.jpg I also draw traditionally too, I'm better at that ^^ also, I can't re-paint or write on the walls D:
I need design ideas for a elegant, but still young, bedroom.? I want to stay in a color theme of grays, blues, white and purples. My room is pretty small. I also want to bring in elements of nature if at all possible. I would like it to be elegant and stylish, with girly touches. But NO PINK.
Interior design ideas? Working with modern furniture in small condo!? I'm moving into a new condo. Long story short, it's owned by my boyfriend's uncle.... so he's giving me all of the furniture that's in there. It's a very small one-bedroom. I wish I had a picture, but I don't. It's got white walls, white carpet, white ceilings, and black furniture. Black leather sofa, black tv stand, black dining room chairs, black stools, black oriental-inspired dresser, and a black bedframe with a semi-circle headboard. The coffee table is a rectangular piece of glass over a really awesome panther-sculpture. The panther's shoulders and hips hold up the table. The only splash of color is the cabinets in the kitchen that have been painted a bright turquoise. The condo is much more modern than my tastes, but I'm willing to work with it. The only problem is.... I'm not completely satisfied with the way it looks just yet. I hate having so much white and black in a small space. I like the contrast, but it's too overwhelming. Another issue is my furniture I'm bringing with me is mostly earth colors like brown and beige. Any ideas how I could make this work? Suggestions for painting the wall another color? Or possibly the cabinets? I'm fine with turquoise but if there's another color that works better I'm willing to give it a try. Thanks!

Design for wallpapering bedroom? I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for wallpaper for walls and ceiling for a bedroom. I'm trying to make it my bedroom a bedroom/small office.

Thanks for you help.

I was thinking of accenting the curtain/window wall with a light red [to go with my bedsheets] and paint the other three walls a deep, cream color with yellow mixed it and possibly a tiny hint of red if there is such a color. So two questions... one, where can I look online to find like catalogs or something that show me all different kinds of wall colors? And two, what do you think of this design idea, would it work in my room?

I want to re-design my bedroom and I need ideas.? My room is quite small (I think it's because I have a queen bed and two desk with 3 shelfs blocking my way) My bedroom has grey carpet and light cream walls. I want to paint two walls black, leaving two all cream. I then want to stick some white vinyl on the black wall. Example: http://hartandheim.com.au/index.php?cPath=111_104 I need website with photo gallery so I can get ideas and any advices will be great :)
What company made this bed and where can I find it? There's what the bed looks like: http://hometolife.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/home-design-Modern-Loft-Bedroom-Design-Ideas-12-469x444.jpg My room's small and I need a design where its space efficient. Currently, my room is crowded.
bedroom design ideas? I'm redecorating my bedroom soon :D i have one problem though...I don't know what to do with my room. Its an average size room, not big but not small. I'm 15 year old girl (Not particularly girly though) and i go to a lot of gigs where i always buy a tour poster, I'm also a musician and an artist and i would like to incorporate all of this into my room. Anyone got any ideas for decoration in my room?
How should I arrange my bedroom? My bedroom is very small.Its about 4x3.5m. It gets very crowded because I have a 1.25m desk, a single bed, a vanity table with drawers all the way down and is just over 1m, a book shelf which is about 1metre wide and 0.75 metres high, and a green beanbag. When you walk into my room, the wall to your left, which is about 3.5m long (starting from left to right) has my vanity table a 20cm gab, then my wardrobe which is built into my wall but you can't walk into it.there is only just enough space to open my bedroom door because the doors are so badly spaced. The wall opposite you has a full length mirror, a 2metre window with floor length curtains, the desk that goes from 1/4 of the way past the wondow to about 30cm from the wall.the wall to the right when you walk in has a bedside table, my bed(goes into the middle of the room) and my beanbag in the corner. The wall behind you when you walk in has the beanbag in the corner, my bookshelf, a washing basket and the door you just walked in through. sorry if the description was a bit confusing, but I need another way to arrange my furniture so it maximizes the space I have. I have tried the bed against the wall, out from the wall and pretty much everywhere because I find my room so cramped and small. I can't buy anything new or get rid of anything, except maybe the bedside table. I really want one of these: http://dornob.com/small-space-living-simple-loft-bedroom-design-idea/?ref=search but i'd never be allowed to :'( thanks for your help :) btw, i'm a 13 year old girl and the walls are apple green

Interior design resources? I am looking for interior design resources and ideas websites. There should be something where people post the pictures of their furniture, bedroom interior design, some small design issues and cool gadgets. Some advice? P.S. No need of too geeky websites with some out-of-space shelves which are designers property and costs like the flat itself.
re-modeling bedroom. . .any ideas? I am in highschool and currently my room looks like it is for a 6 year old. I have barbie wallpaper and princess junk all around. Plus there is flowered curtains and crap. I have convinced my parents to let me redo it, but i can't buy new furniture. Does anyone have any paint ideas, design ideas, etc. i can buy a new bed set or photo frames and stuff. I really like organization and stuff, but don't want my room to look like an office. I want something fun, yet relaxing to come home too. I was thinking light green or blue paint, but i am not sure. by the way my room is really small. (11 feet by 11 feet, plus a small closet)
How to design a small room to be cute and spacious as possible? Any neat ideas? ok so i'm working on a house and here's where we're at... there's a tiny room... either can be an extra room or a bedroom, we're trying to make it a bedroom most likely for like a little kid but we're selling the house so it might not even be a little kid (we dont know)... theres a little walkway into the room so the door can open and not take up space.. then on the right wall when you walk in there's a space for a closet, to make it more spacious we're thinking maybe we should leave it open, a dressor could fit in there or something, even part of the bed... however we're not set on this idea and we're trying to think of something creative that may make it another selling point, any ... i mean ANY ideas are great!! let me know what would make you want to buy it... any cute ideas, or unique ones, whatever, we just can't figure it out and i've been looking online forever! please give me some input! thanks it's very well appreciated!!
I need design ideas for creating a STYLISH teen room for a 17 year-old guy. (Any help???)??? Hi. So my Mum has just given me the master bedroom to our house. I know, I'm lucky... In it i have a walk-in-wardrobe and an Ensuite. I'm not sure if the bedroom is classified as small or not, but it's dimensions are 18' x 17'. The walk-in-wardrobe is 11' x 9'. Basically, what i am looking for is design ideas that can help me turn this room into "ME". I want it to reflect my style, but still be uber-cool and super stylish and sophisticated at the same time. I am 17, and i dont plan on moving out until about 25, so permanency is not an issue. Also, the budget is unlimited. I will briefly list some of my interests and style tastes so that you may get a better feel of who "I" am. My Interests •Photography •Reading •Writing •Watching movies •Listening to music •Editing photos •Surfing the internet •Planning •Fashion •Style •Video games My Style/Taste •Eclectic, including: •African •Egyptian •Roman •Oriental •Mexican/Spanish/Aztec •Things that evoke a sense of age and epic-ness e.g. LOTR, 300, 10,000BC •Ancient Civilisations •Modern •Classy •Sophisticated •Retro •Grunge •Expensive •Adventurist (my own word, apparently) Here are some pics of me. I guess showing you who i am might make it easier for you to 'see' who i am. http://www.flickr.com/photos/ethan_9219/sets/72157602346493483/ It would be great if anybody has any ideas that may reflect anything that i mentioned or you think would suit me. I am open to other ideas that you may have that are cool but are different to what i mentioned. I think it would help for you to see the space i will be working with. So here is a picture of my room's layout: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ethan_9219/2802841153/ One thing that i want to have in my room is a giant photograph taking up either a full wall, or most of it. If anybody has any ideas of what would be the perfect iconic image to use in this situation they would be much appreciated. I look forward to hearing everybody's ideas and suggestions. Thanks heaps, Ethan
INTERIOR DESIGNERS: Do you have any old bedroom to cool loft interior design ideas? Above my garage, there's this extra bedroom. My family uses it as an attic. We keep old stuff, some nonperishable food, and just junk up there. I want to turn the attic into a cool place for me to maybe sleep, do homework, etc. The furniture (minus the junk) is pretty simple. It's a queen sized bed with a low headboard (with the mattress and bedding there as well) and generally very low, like an oak or fir wood. Same goes for the dresser, only the dresser is a little old and rickety and doesn't work very well. There's a long plastic table and I can get a folding chair. The reason I wanted to use the attic was because the architecture in the room was so cool! The ceiling slopes a little (the rafters are not visible) and on the stairs up, there's this little piece of wall that just hangs out as a divider from the stairs and the rest of the room because the room starts before the stairs end. The room is completely white, and there's a closet with ceiling to floor mirrors. There are two windows- one is very long and near the bed, and one is right near the stairs. The room is about the size of a small bedroom. I cannot buy furniture, but I want to know what I can change on a less than 100 dollar budget. Any ideas? THANKS!
Any ideas for a mature bedroom? Hi! I'm 14 years and I'm redoing my bedroom. I want something mature but fun. And, I want to be able to like it for a long time. My room is kind of small so, i can't do a whole lot with it. i want color but not really bright ones. I like fun patterns and designs like zebra print but i also like calmer things like candles. I like modern/contemporary designs. so...if you could give me some paint, bedding, or design ideas(or anything else you think of), i would really appreciate it. p.s. if you could provide links to anything you find that you think i might like, please add them. p.s.s i'm not allowed to spend over $200 so.... thanks!
I am wanting to either decorate my bedroom or living room with this style & colors, any creative ideas? http://www.hgtv.com/hgtv/dc_design_small_space/article/0,1793,HGTV_3382_5351501_01,00.html Like for wall art or how to go about creating this style? I'm headed to some thrift stores this weekend to see what I can find. Does anyone know some crafty ideas?
Should I remove a bedroom (walls) to make an open concept design in my home? I am buying a small two story house with 4 small bedrooms and 1.1 baths (1480 SF). The living room and eat-in-kitchen (no dining room) are very small as well. There is a bedroom between my kitchen and living room. I want to remove the walls of the bedroom so I can expand the small kitchen, add a space for an actual dining table and visually bigger living room. Do you think this would look okay? Also I know reducing my bedroom count may affect the resale value. The design of my current house is below. Any other ideas would be appreciated. Here is a link to the schematic of my first floor. Thanks in advance for your help! http://i795.photobucket.com/albums/yy238/rn4life2008/My%20house/1stfloor.jpg I forgot to mention that my house faces north so I get little sun light in my kitchen. I think removing the walls may also provide better lighting in the kitchen. John- thank you for your input. I intend on hiring a structural engineer to find out if they are load bearing or not. My home inspector (with 20+years experience as a home contractor) said he did not think it was load bearing based on the shape of the house (A-frame, I think he mentioned), the fact that it is a brick house and from what he can tell based on the joists in the crawl space. So I am hoping he is correct. Thank you all for your great ideas. My normal family size includes my one-year old son, hubby and myself. Currently, I am housing two family members. My mother is one of them and it looks like she may become a permanent house guest. So considering those factors, I will need to keep at least three bedrooms.
Teal green-blue + brown bedroom decorating ideas? Alright, so I have a bedroom I am redoing... I've gotten a comforter that is a rich chocolate brown, with this green-blue sort of teal color for sheets. I've got brown and brown/teal pillows as well. What I need help with is what to put on the walls, what to decorate with... my room is generally small. What I would love most beyond tips, is help here: I found this site and it has SO MANY pictures I can't go through it all on my own. So would some out there care to lend a hand looking through for any bedrooms that may be of help to what I'm looking for and posting them? That would be FANTASTIC. Thanks to the answering community and remember, best answer receives 10 points! ;3 Feel free to ask any questions if I need to make myself clearer for what I'm looking for. Here's the site: http://www.hgtv.com/hgtv/dc_design_bedroom/article/ Thanks Gran, I'll look at those and maybe take a look at your other source. I've already pretty much decided on a color for the walls, and I know I'm not doing brown... And just for news, I'm 17 going on 18 this year. ;3
Teen Bedroom Interior Design Help? I am a sixteen year old girl and I need help designing my room! I purchased a colorful quilt and lamp shades from Anthropologie and am centering my room around those. I am going for the Anthropologie feel, sophisticated, vintage, and moroccan. I DO NOT want to grow out of this room soon, so I need mature pieces. My bedroom is fairly small, so I don't want furniture that will overpower it. I am looking for a queen sized bed, a vanity/desk, and bedside table, and lamp stands. I love this vanity from PB teen, but I am not sure if the white looks too little girly. Also would white, dark wood, and an iron bed look wierd together? What do you think? Where is a quality store to buy sophisticated furniture from? I want my room to be relaxing and mellow, but still fun. I have pictured some of my ideas below, and would love some input. Thanks!! - Zoe Already purchased: http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/catalog/productdetail.jsp?id=993009&parentid=HOME-BEDDING&pushId=HOME-BEDDING&popId=HOME&sortProperties=&navCount=35&navAction=top&fromCategoryPage=true&selectedProductSize=&selectedProductSize1=&color=pin&colorName=PINK&isSubcategory= Ideas: http://www.pbteen.com/products/p3894/?pkey=cvanity-furniture http://www.potterybarn.com/products/p957/index.cfm?pkey=cmetal%2Dbeds%2Dheadboards http://www.potterybarn.com/products/p9494/index.cfm?pkey=cbedside%2Dtables http://www.potterybarn.com/products/p7300/index.cfm?pkey=cbedside%2Dtables

What are some good ideas for a rock star bedroom? Im 13 years old (female) and my mom is letting me redo my bedroom. I already decided that I want red and black to be the main colors of the room design. For the walls, i'm gonna do the black wall that cool chalkboard paint and for the red walls I'll just do a solid bright red with random metallic patterns. But I'm stumped on the rest. I have a small-ish bedroom... not the much space. Something like a 13' by 10' and the ceilings are only 8' tall. I have a queen sized bed and a 52" round beanbag so that takes up a decent amount of space. (though I'm looking to replace the beanbag) What I'm looking for: Any other colors that would look good with red and black, and really make the room sorta pop. Please, no pink. Im not the girly girl type... Any ideas on wall art; seating options to replace my beanbag; leather and studs are cool; anything with music! (I'm sort of obsessed with music and am really into rock or punk/metal) Please help me!! Links are cool, pictures are great/ Thanks

I need some practical and inexpensive decorating ideas for a small ranch house.? The house has three bedrooms, one bath, living room and combination dining and kitchen area. The house was built in the 70's and still has the look. It is very plain, no design details and nothing that can be used as a focal point.
Bedroom design help?! Give me some idea's please? So I'm redecorating my room and I need a little inspiration. Just a few things- I was planning on doing a sort of mural on my main wall opposite my bed. My bed is a four poster, (i'd like to keep it four poster, but I can make it just a normal single) My room's quite small (not tiny though) I was thinking of having an oriental theme because I recently bought some turkish lanterns that I want to hang either end of the 'main' wall. they kind of look like this http://theturkishtradingcompany.com/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=shop.flypage&product_id=951&category_id=39&manufacturer_id=0&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=26 except their clear not red Thanks :) Btw I'm 16 and a girl obviously
Teen Girl Bedroom Design? We're getting a vacation house this year, so I need to design my room. I kind of have an idea..but I kind of don't. The rooms aren't going to be huge, so this is what I have. I'm thinking either a daybed (really cute and not very expensive) or maybe a loft bed (also cute, more space for storage, etc.) Either will work. I'm thirteen, and my favorite color is blue. I like being modern and fashionable not like cute, little girl rooms. I don't want the whole thing blue. So the room is most likely going to be a small to medium sqaure room. Could you pick me out a cute daybed, or loftbed (on a website like Ikea, I don't just want pictures..It must be able to be purchased!), A comforter, a dresser, a chair, end table, lamp, and some room accesories will win you the best answer. All ideas are apreciated. Thanks so much!
Bedroom Design? Hey. I will shortly be having the walls of my bedroom repainted, and will also be having the floor changed. Brown is going to be an unavoidable colour, as most of the furnishing, aswell as the cupboards, are all brown. The frame of my bed is a shiny black, with small hints of white in the bedhead. My room is pretty small, so i dont want a colour scheme that is going to make it feel even smaller. Other than that, there arent really any restrictions. Anyone have ideas what i can do with the walls/floor? Im an 18 year old male by the way :) Thanks.
How can I spice up my bedroom walls? My walls in my bedroom are white. I think they're really boring, but my parents won't let me paint them a fun color like purple or blue or anything. How can I spice them up? I'm not a big fan of posters. I may be allowed to paint like, small designs, just not a full solid color other than white. Any ideas? Thanks :)

What are some teen bedroom Ideas? I have already looked at some theme websites and I don't really want to do a theme because I constantly add little trinkets to my room. I'm a 13 year old girl and I really need to re-do my room. I haven't done anything new with it since I moved into the house several years back. I'm happy and a bubbly type of person, but I also can be complicated. So I need a design and colors that will make my small room look a little better, and maybe a complicated swirl design I could paint on my wall? Help meeee! Thanks By the way I'm a tomboy, but i like the color lavender. My favorite colors are: Green Purple Blue
Room colour/design ideas? I'm moving downstairs from my bedroom to a smaller one, my one at the moment is waaay too big it's the whole size of the house, and it gets dusty easily etc etc! I'm moving into a kinda bigish room with an en-suite (black and white tiles), and it has an alcove kind of thing in the far corner, it's as tall as the celing and goes in for about a 1/1and a half meters and about as wide as a desk. There is 1 window in the room (and 1 in the bathroom) and i don't think it lets in too much sun. There is a very big double bed in there and I think that'll be staying it takes up nearly half the room... I don't know if all those details were necessary but :/ My favourite colour is blue, I looove it! Currently the walls are 3 white and 1 brown, I don't like that :/ Also there will be a floor to ceiling wardrobe going in, I dont want it but I dont havea say, it will be like frosted glass sliding door thing.

Bedroom design puzzle. help? hey, thanks for looking! Ok. im a teen girl, and about a year and a half ago i got a new room and i painted it lime green. (not tired of it yet though lol) and its small. real small. like 9' by 11'. So to save space, i got a bunk bed with a futon below. Heres the thing. i left the room mostly plain so that i could decorate it easily. I would like to do a theme, but i dont know what would look good with the lime green. i really like the color and would like to work around it. Any ideas? i like the idea of a celestial theme, but please suggest away. I like water sports too. i am really pressed for space, so i cant do any big furniture. i dont even get a dresser because there is no room! Well, im open to anything, so thanks for your time! thanks! i thought about polka dots, but im thinking about more of a place theme. my bed is already on the wall, or i would only have a foot of space on either side. to give you and idea of how small my room is. Although, i love your idea about a fish. Im gonna get a beta ish theyre nice and bright!
I need some help in my bedroom design? ? A teenagers room. Its a little on the small side. Four walls, a small closet. At the door when you walk in there is like a really short hallway type thing. I have a window on the back wall. I am a strange combo of a tomboy and a prep. I have a lot of junk that I need to fit into my room, so i need a lot of storage. Can you give me an idea of a way to design my room to make it seem bigger, have a lot of storage, and fit my personality? if you would like a color idea, I have a lamp that is green and pink that is a floor lamp. The furniture I currently have is white, but i could paint it. Thanx a lot!!
bedroom ideas anyone? i am a 15 year old girl, soon to be 16. i just moved into my new house a few months ago and we're at the painting stage, now that we are done with the yard and exterior. i can't do much decorating until i get that done so i need some help. i have a thing for the color purple, but i would like to have more than one color. which colors go well with purple and how should i paint my walls with those colors? then i need help with decorating. i don't have a ton of money since my mom is about to have a baby, but she's willing to go little at a time. and my room isn't the biggest you've ever seen either. it's not too small, but there isn't enough room to put in a ton of stuff. I could wait until I've gone through the interior design class i signed up for, but I don't want to wait that long. i also don't want to stick to a specific theme, but i do want to mix in my interests and such which include: photography acting singing music in general bright colors zebras dance twilight saga reading in general fantasy life (fairies, mushrooms, forests, etc) vintage style paris superheros and video games i don't have to include it all since i know it's pretty much impossible, some of those things just do not mix, but i want as much in it as possible. any help will be greatly appreciated (: thank you. i am not big on hannah montana. she annoys the crap out of me. i mean, sure some of her music is ok, but don't like her. no offense to anyone.
Design for teen bedroom? Im 16 years old and my room is a MESS! Its plain and boring and i need help to "funk it up" . My bedroom is bery small and i have a double bed with a dressing table and cupboard. Its like a rectangle with a door on each of the two far walls. I need ideas on how i can make it a fun space for me to be in. I cant block off one of the doors as its the only access we have to the back room. My bedspread is white with cute desgns all over it. My favourite colours are pink, blue and purple. HELP me!!!
How to make a small room look grown and sexy? So, I basically live in an "8x8 cell". It's horrifically teeny and all I can fit in there is my full bed, one tall dresser, and I have a couple 3 drawer storage bins stacked up on eachother. I have yet to enetertain any company (if you get my drift) because I am embarrassed of 1) how small my bedroom is and 2) how much it resembles a room of a 12yr old (I'm 24). What are some designing ideas to make a room so small look nice and "sexy".
Bedroom Idea's ??? I was pushed into the box room last week. Its your typical small room where the bed and wardrobe can only fit few places. Anyone got any design idea's???
I have an idea and want to run it past you? Want to help me? My inlaws are in their 80's and don't need a house and property to maintain. The expense and the physical and mental stress is too much for them, but they are active and in good health. The apartment is very confining and a bit depressing. My Mother was in the same boat before she pasted at 90. They can't do anything outside but sit and look over a parking lot. I want to approach a developer in my town with an idea. A housing development with small houses designed for older people. Two bedroom and one bedroom w/a small den. All ground level entry with wide hallways, or no halls. Carport or one car garage. Shower and fixtures made for easy reach. The houses or duplexes would rent for an amount that is within easy reach for persons on ssi. Do you need something like this or do you have family that would want to live in this kind of community. This would be different from retirement or eldercare places. I see a neighborhood where people can live normal active lives, come and go as they please, no medical help on property, just small houses with small lawns where one can plant a garden or flowers and are in a safe area. Perhaps gated or hired security service periodically patrolling.
What should I do to coordinate a Moroccan inspired bedroom? I've been researching on-line for about a month now on how to design a Moroccan inspired bedroom. I have already visited some local shops and gathered pictures from on-line, but I don't know where to start! Of course, the wall paint, but I don't want anything too dark to make it appear smaller. All the Moroccan colors are so strong and rich. My head is everywhere. Could someone please help with some ideas?

Decorating Ideas for a blue bedroom? Hey guys, so I am going to be painting my bedroom at my dads a light blue when I go up. Its a very pretty and calming color, but I want to do a little more with the walls than just paint.

Any ideas will help, and if you have pictures, they would be very much appreciated. Thanks for your thoughts!

Can you give me ideas/help for decorating single guy's house? I'm a thirty-year-old single guy. I like dogs, the outdoors, my Jeep Wrangler, autumn, good wine, travel, photography... I'm trying to integrate my "likes" into my home. I have painted my living/dining room two colors of khaki, and a chalkboard-green wall. I have a brown leather couch, and walnut tables and bookcases. I've also remodeled my guest bathroom - new flooring, hardware, paint, etc. However, I'm trying to get ideas on decorating... accent pieces, dining room furniture, bedroom furniture (blank slate right now) and my own bathroom. I need help finding websites for "bachelor pads" and masculine design (not a lot of flowery-things). I'd like to redo the kitchen with the small tiles as a backsplash. I'd like to find websites/books/magazines that show off a masculine home. Pictures are a must!! The main goals are to have a cool guy's house and up the resale value. Serious responses only... any help is appreciated. Thanks! As I said, folks... I need pictures, websites, magazines, etc. While I appreciate the suggestions, does no one know of ANY place to LOOK at pictures to get ideas? That's what I'm wanting.
How can i make my teen bedroom STYLISH or COOL or SOPHISTICATED or CLASSY etc etc??? Hi. So my Mum has just given me the master bedroom to our house. I know, I'm lucky... In it i have a walk-in-wardrobe and an Ensuite. I'm not sure if the bedroom is classified as small or not, but it's dimensions are 18' x 17'. The walk-in-wardrobe is 11' x 9'. Basically, what i am looking for is design ideas that can help me turn this room into "ME". I want it to reflect my style, but still be uber-cool and super stylish and sophisticated at the same time. I am 17, and i dont plan on moving out until about 25, so permanency is not an issue. Also, the budget is unlimited. I will briefly list some of my interests and style tastes so that you may get a better feel of who "I" am. My Interests •Photography •Reading •Writing •Watching movies •Listening to music •Editing photos •Surfing the internet •Planning •Fashion •Style •Video games My Style/Taste •Eclectic, including: •African •Egyptian •Roman •Oriental •Mexican/Spanish/Aztec •Things that evoke a sense of age and epic-ness e.g. LOTR, 300, 10,000BC •Ancient Civilisations •Modern •Classy •Sophisticated •Retro •Grunge •Expensive •Adventurist (my own word, apparently) Here are some pics of me. I guess showing you who i am might make it easier for you to 'see' who i am. http://www.flickr.com/photos/ethan_9219/sets/72157602346493483/ It would be great if anybody has any ideas that may reflect anything that i mentioned or you think would suit me. I am open to other ideas that you may have that are cool but are different to what i mentioned. I think it would help for you to see the space i will be working with. So here is a picture of my room's layout: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ethan_9219/2802841153/ One thing that i want to have in my room is a giant photograph taking up either a full wall, or most of it. If anybody has any ideas of what would be the perfect iconic image to use in this situation they would be much appreciated. I look forward to hearing everybody's ideas and suggestions. Thanks heaps, Ethan Ricky> You have me sort of worked out, but a few things. First of all, i am not from a well to do family....I am poor. Second, yes a lot of the time i enjoy being by myself...What better place to do that in my nice room? Thirdly, i am perfectly 100% straight....I like girls, not guys. The thing is i am 'man' enough to admit the things i like and i understand they may seem a little 'gay' or feminine...That's because i am perfectly 100% happy being who i am and enjoy doing what i like to do. Lastly, i am not a lonely nerd who would like to fill his room with mini figurines and such of historical battles...OK?

Ideas for space above a headboard? I've tried to find ideas for the wall above headboard and not finding much. I can draw, but looking for simple paint designs, geometric. It is for small bedroom, and I have to be careful it doesn't overwhelm. The only thing I found in search, was faux headboards. There are suggestions for hanging a simple quilt or drape curtains from a shelf called a coronet (which I never heard of before). I do have a headboard already...white, iron leaf with posts...simple. I've thought of flowers, but what kinds of arrangements? Suggestions, please!!!!!!! Mindy, you've really inspired me! I like the bedroom words about dreaming. I like the simple flowers as in the picture. I also found a verse about FAITH I may use, too.... Thanks, I didn't check out the animals link yet. I have a tree in my office, too..lol.

Indian theme bedroom? I want a moroccon/indian style bedroom with lots of bold colors and a variety of textures. My room is somewhat small (11 x 13) Another design element I'm asking you to consider-- We have a king size loft bed. The bed on top, and underneath is our computer/work space area. We also have a flat screen, dresser, and a standing floor length mirror. All ideas welcome! Please the more website, floor plans, and pictures the better! Thanks a million! I already have a silky gold comforter with big tasseled pillows! :D I also need paint suggestions, unique ideas, do it yourself ideas, cheap ideas-- thanks again! The computer MUST go in our room-- military housing, no other outlet for internet. The loft bed design is to save room otherwise theres seriously 2 ft of walking space. We took off our closet door and will put up a curtain to free up the corner the door was taking up! It's stained a very dark black color. (The loft bed.)

Help with some ideas for the cat room/litter box area? I live in a small one bedroom apartment with five indoor cats. I currently have 2 large-ish litter boxes that I scoop daily too keep everything...not gross. So, I was reading that I should have a box per cat plus one, but I don't really have much room for that. I have the litter boxes in my laundry room, which is, I dunno, probably 10-12 feet long and 4-5 feet wide (I'm guessing from memory). It's a decent size, and I have a stacked washer/dryer unit, so that helps keep space available. I was wondering if I could get some ideas for giving them more box space, and I guess look better. Here's the current problems I continue fighting with: 1. I use tidy cats scoop, which is amazing litter, but tracks EVERYWHERE and I have linoleum floors, so it scatters as well. 2. Someone, no matter how clean I keep the box, continues to poop on the side. 3. The 2 brothers love to roll in the litter when it's either replaced or freshly scooped, I guess to show appreciation. They're adorable, but it's gross, if that makes sense. I don't really expect this one to be solved here, but it came to mind, and is kind of funny. I'm looking to make this room kind of more comfortable for them. Aside from the occasional laundry that I forget to do, it's the one room in here that is pretty much devoted to them, and I had originally hoped to design it so they could play in there as well, which they do, but only in the litter. Soooo, suggestions for ways to fix up this room for the kids, I guess? (I also can't put litter boxes anywhere else in the apartment. There's just no room) I bought some dollar store rugs, and that has helped a lot with the scatter of litter, but the rugs clump up. (my kids like to run and slide on them. I can't say I blame them, I used to do that in gym class, but..yeah, I can't fix it from work, haha.) I don't know where to find that stuff to keep rugs from sliding or how much it is. And I love the tower building idea, and if anyone has any more pictures of homemade ones, I'd love to see them :)

Please Help Me ReDo My Bedroom? [Very long...I dare you to read it all and give your best answer!]? I am 16 years old and redoing my bedroom. I will be moving out in two years so i am not looking to do anything that involves construction work. Haha. However, I do not have a budget. I want my room to look alot more adult and yet very unique. For background information; I spend hours in my room with my reptiles, standard poodle, & Greenwing macaw. I am a lipstick lesbian, i love fires, fashion, clean-cut trendy designs, tattoos, animals, and motorcycles. I dont know if this will help at all but i figured it might help if you know what im into. I made a picture on paint of what my bedroom looks like and the furniture that will be going into it. The furniture 'pics.' is approximate size to the floorspace 'pic.'. The TV must stay where it is. I am going to get a queen size bed. I have a large macaw cage. I am getting a nightstand to store make up in & im getting a smaller nightstand to have a place to put my phone..ect. I forgot to add my poster. Can you please give me creative ideas on where my furniture should go and cool things that i should purchase to add to my bedroom? Links would be great! http://i8.tinypic.com/66vha9j.jpg
How should I redesign my bedroom I'm 16 and I haven't redecoratred my room since I was about 11. My room is quite small (Around 15feet by 12), but this shouldn't mean I can't make it nice. I have no idea how I want it to look though! Sometimes I'll see on tv or in a magazine like a pale blue with sort of cream furniture and think it looks stunnig but then the next minute I'm more drawn to like bright pink with white and black duvet and furniture. How should I do it?? Are there any websites where you can like design your room online or anything? Any ideas will be welcome! I'm not the sort of girl who has a specific taste..I just decide on whatever looks good, it's not like im after a specific colour of design or anything. thanks!

ROOM MAKEOVER IdEAS!? Well, I'm going for a relaxing theme- and I've been watching a lot of Design on a Dime (luv that show!!) on HGTV, and I'm thinking about a nice, Moroccan theme. I've seen a lot of turquoise and purple on the wall color, but I'm going for more of deep, rich, tones, like maybe deep reds, golds, chocolatey browns, and rustic oranges, and maybe inlcude a little bit of the purple and turquoise in accent pieces, like a rug and pillows.

please read this story i wrote. By a 6th grader? Hollywood Troubles “Hhhhh, Julia sighed. It’s just another day, another ordinary day” Julia Lintheart was staring out her window, looking at the warm summer day. There were blue skies, green grass, you’d think it be perfect. But no. She was in a dismal mood. “Why should I be the only one not having fun? She thought to herself. “It’s just not fair”. Julia sighed once again as she stroked her long brown hair that draped around her right shoulder with her soft, pale hands. Julia was mad because she was the only one who hadn’t done adventurous over the summer. Time was running out only 3 weeks before the 9th grade. She had to something that she could remember the 8th grade summer by and something everyone else would remember her, Julia, by. Julia went downstairs into the kitchen of her medium sized home. The kitchen was a light tan color, with oak wood cabinets. There was a stainless steel oven, dishwasher and microwave. Her mother was loading dishes into the dishwasher as she came downstairs. “Well, we have to go pick up your little sister Rose from her friend, Lavender’s house”, her mother replied holding a white plate. “Do I have to come? Why can’t I say home with Dad? Er, wait Dad’s never home”, Julia said in a quiet tone, “He’s always on some tour, I just keep forgetting. “ As a rookie film producer he is very busy, but he’s quite good at it. He seems to have a knack for it. “I know, but it’s been two whole months. Sometimes I just wish he could come home. “We all do, Jules”, he mother said wiping her hands on the white towel. Was this remark supposed to make her feel better? Because she didn’t feel any better. In fact she felt sadder. ”Anyway, Julia you have to come.” “Why can’t I stay home? I’m old enough”, Julia inquired. “I know Julia but you have to go shopping you need clothes for fall. In case you are wondering Julia had already bought clothes for the winter last week. Julia wanted to roll her blue eyes but kept herself from doing so. Instead she said “whats wrong with the clothes I have”, glancing down at her dark blue jeans and her ABERCROMBIE t-shirt. Almost instantaneously her obsessive-shopping mother answered. “Your jeans are ripped, they’re too old and--- Julia cut her mother off. “Old. What do you mean old! 3 weeks ago, that’s old”! “Julia you are going shopping and that’s final”, her mother replied in a stern voice. Julia groaned. “When are we going?” “Half an hour” she answered. Julia went back up the spiral stair case and into her bedroom. Her bedroom was a light blue color. There was a twin sized bedroom that was right in the middle of her room. She walked on the soft carpet of her bedroom. She layed on her tootsie roll pillow. A raindrop fell on her window. It started to sprinkle outside. The blue skies turned gray. Julia didn’t know what to do. “Jules come on 1et’s go”, her mother called putting on her black trench coat. Julia dragged her feet down the steps. She went to the entrance hall of her home. She put her tennis shoes on and grabbed the black umbrella. Julia and her mother walked out the front door , and hopped into the silver minivan. Her mother backed out of the drive way. “Julia?” Her mother asked. “Yeah”, she answered. Mrs. Lintheart took a deep breath. “I-I just got off the”, she faltered. How do I put this nicely”? Julia, I just got off the phone with dad. We’re moving”. ~CHAPTER 2~ A million questions raced through her mind. Where are we moving? When are leaving? Why are we going? What are my friends going to think? “I’m sorry”, Mrs. Lintheart said apologetically. Julia didn’t know why he mother was so sorry. She wasn’t so mad herself. “Should I be mad”? She asked her mother. “No. Not at all, I just didn’t know how you were going to react”, she answered turning around a curb. “Where are we going?” Julia asked rather excited. “Hollywood”, her mother replied. Julia’s eyes widened and her jaw dropped. “What did you say?” “Well”, Mrs. Lintheart started. Your father has a role opening, and he needs a girl about your age. If you get it were staying at least till the movie is over. If you don’t we’re going to keep your father company. At this point Julia stopped listening. She didn’t need to be told anything more. She knew where this conversation was going. “So does this mean I get to be a star”? She asked being her curious self. “Actually no. You have to complete the auditions first.” She said adjusting her rearview mirror. Julia was a bit disappointed but was determined. They pulled into a driveway. “Oh and Jules, it’s best not to tell Rose about this”. The rain fell harder by the second. Julia sighed once again, but this time a good sigh. A sigh that meant I’m ready. Ready to be a star. She could picture herself. A millionaire, being pampered, and having the best life ever. Julia opened the car door. She opened the umbrella. They walked up the long driveway and rang the doorbell. Ding-Dong. A tall looking mother opened the door. Julia gaped at the sight of the house. From the outside you’d think it was a normal house, but it wasn’t. The foyer was huge. It had a ceiling so high it seemed like it was endless. There was a bright chandelier that came down almost blinding to the naked eye. The walls had a light gold design. “Oh my”, the tall women said pointing to the window. “It looks terrible out there”. “I know some weather”, Julia’s mother agreed. “Mom, mom, mom”, came Lavendar, Rose’s best friend. “Can Rose stay a bit longer?” “Only if it’s O.K with Rose’s mother”, Lavendar’s mother said with a chuckle. Julia glanced up at her mothers and gave her one of her I-don’t-want-to-stay-at-a-6 year old-house looks. Mrs. Lintheart patted Julia on her shoulder and smiled. One of her only-for-tonight-smiles. Perfect, Julia thought. I am wasting my time at a 6 year olds house. As Lavendar and Rose chatted away Mrs. Anderson (Lavendar’s mom) offered Julia and her mother some tea or coffee. They both politely refused by saying “no thank you”. The 3 went into the living room. Julia had already adjusted to the Anderson’s immense house but that did not change the fact that it was huge. In the living room the walls were a deep reddish-maroon color. There was a 72 inch plasma screen that stood there ready to be used. “Why don’t you have a seat”, Mrs. Anderson told Julia. “oh wait, would you rather go to home theater?” Julia smiled. “Oh that won’t be necessary”, Julia’s mother answering for her. Julia reluctantly gave a slight nod of her head. “Mom, why would you say something like that? Of course, I would rather watch a movie than listen to adults talk, she thought to herself. Julia was mad at her mother. “Oh well, she while thinking of all her unanswered questions. At 6:30 pm Julia’s mother decided that it was time to go home. “Lavendar, Rose” Mrs. Anderson called from the bottom of the deep blue colored carpet. They came sprinting down the steps. “Mommy”, I don’t want Rose to leave, Lavendar whined. “I’m afraid they’ve got to”, Mrs. Anderson said. She opened the door. By this time it was raining very hard. BOOM, they heard thunder. They saw a flash it was lightening. “Whoa”, Rose said. “It doesn’t seem to safe out there, you’re welcome to stay with us for the night”, Mrs. Anderson offered. “OH thank you we don’t have much of a choice, really” Mrs. Lintheart said. Julia couldn’t believe her ears. Was this really happening? No. No way. Not if she could help it. Julia gave her mother another one of her “looks”. Her mother gave her one of her “smiles”. “Only for tonight”, she added just in case Julia couldn’t understand her smile. “Ughhhhhh”, Julia thought in her mind. All this time Julia was trying to focus on the positive. O.k. I said trying. Lavendar was talking to Rose about how they have so many rooms, so they could sleep. The five went to the living room and turned the 72 inch television on to the weather channel. “We are looking at severe thunderstorms throughout the Chicago area”, the reporter announced. Julia would rather walk home in the rain than stay. She went upstairs with the adults and overheard that Rose would be sleeping in Lavendar’s bedroom and Julia and her mother would be staying in one of the three guest bedrooms. Mrs. Anderson showed them there room. It was like all the other rooms. Big. As you have probably comprehended by now Julia must dread in despair through the night. Fine. O.K. Well, I guess it’s not that bad. Unfortunately it doesn’t matter ehat you and I think, it’s up to Julia. I just write it down. They went back down stairs. “Oh dear”, Mrs. Anderson said looking directly at Rose. You must be starving. Do you want to eat something? “No, I’m not hungry; Rose replied in her high pitched voice, I want to play with Lavendar. Lavendar followed by Rose then Julia, and then the adults into the playroom. The playroom had a mini ball pit, a play slide, and lots of books mainly fairy tales. Ii also had pink and white striped walls. The grown-ups laughed and smiled. Suddenly the lights went out. It was pitch black. ~CHAPTER 3~ Mrs. Anderson could find her path through the criss-crossing hallway, down the steps, and into the room that contained the flashlight. She pressed the on button and a yellow beam of color shot out. The silver flashlight illuminated everything in its way. Anita Anderson walked up the steps, back through the criss-crossing, and into the playroom. As she entered the playroom she noticed two little bodies curled up on the play mats. Their eyes were shut tight and you could hear snoring. Mrs. Lintheart whispered something into Mrs. Anderson’s ear. Instantaneously, Anita walked out of the room and then came back in. Her arms were full of multi-colored sleeping bags. Julia was furious at once but kept her anger to herself. She wanted to atleast sleep on the bed. Julia’s mother helped unroll each of the five different color sleeping bags. Julia slipped into her red one , taking off her sweatshirt and placing it beside her. Julia had to admit she was a bit tired, although it was only 15 past eight. She closed her eyes, adjusted her pillow, and fell off into a deep sleep. She dreamt of pleasant dreams. “Hollywood”, she quietly murmured in her sleep. She was picturing herself getting the part, becoming a millionaire…you get the rest. The rest of her dreams were put to an end by the voice of her mother. “Juls”, she said quietly standing next to Julia. Time to get up” Julia rubbed her eyes, and stretched her legs as she sat up straight in her “bag”. She walked out yawning. She rolled it up into a neat ball. Julia realized that there were four empty sleeping bags beside her. She picked up her sleeping bag and followed her mother downstairs. She was to drowsy to speak. Lavendar and Rose were making a loud din chasing each other around the kitchen. Julia could smell the aroma of fresh blueberry pancakes being made. Julia loved pancakes. She sat down at the large maple wood table as two pancakes were placed in front of her. She was starving so she devoured them, but in a neat way. * * * * * * * * * ~Later that evening~ Julia had gotten back to her home. Julia was wondering what the auditions were going to be like and what she had to do to get the part. “Briing, briiiing”, the phone rang. She ran into the master bedroom and picked up the black phone. “Hello”, Julia called into the phone. “Juls, is that you?”, her dad asked “Yeah it’s me”, she said puzzled. “Who are you”? “Your daddy”, her dad replied. Julia gasped at these words. She couldn’t even recognize he fathers voice. He was touring Spain for ideas. “ Hi”. “ Honey, your just the person I wanted to talk to. I bet your mother has already told you about”, he paused. “Hollywood”, Julia finished for him squirming with joy. Her dad took a deep breath. “Um er about that, we need a girl for the part”, he started talking faster as he went along. Youre perfect for the part. I asked the producer and he said maybe. He aslso said that me being the director can’t do with anything with you getting the part. Anyway, you still have to audition a couple of lines. There aren’t many people competing for it. 16 including you to be exact. But you don’t have to move to Hollywood, you don’t even have to try out for the part if you don’t want to. “Dad, Julia started. I want to do everything you just mentioned. I want to move, get the part and become rich.“Just one question. What’s it about?” “Ah”, can’t tell you. “Huh”?, Julia asked baffled. “Show biz policy. You have exactly 24 hours to rehearse for the auditions. Julia gawked. “ So you are saying that I have 1 day practice”? “That’s right”, he answered casually. Then everything got quiet. A mysterious quiet. A chilling quiet. “Julia”, he whispered. Then he hung up. ~CHAPTER 4~ Julia pressed the round black button to off the phone. “What was that all about”? she wondered. She had so much to get ready for. Could she do it? Julia had no idea what the movie was about. Julia walked into the family room. It had two beige colored couches and a T.Vimon. She found Rose watching Bob the Builder. IT had just started so the theme song was playing. “Bob the Builder. Can he fix it? The T.V yelled. “Bob the builder. Yes he can!! Rose chimed in. “Rose, can I please watch now”? Julia asked as she turned her head away from the obnoxious show. “Nope”, Rose replied with her eyes still glue to the television. Julia didn’t bother arguing with her younger sister. So, she went upstairs to her bedroom and got out her pink cell phone. She called her two best friends Ally, and Nicole cell. Ally is a long haired blonde who loved nothing more than a good old adventure. Julia and Ally were alike because they both liked an adventure, but Ally was far more daring. I guess you could call her a risk taker. “Hey ally”, Julia called into the phone “ It’s Julia”. “Oh hey” Ally said. “Over the last few days I heard really big news. You know how my dad’s a film director and all”, Julia asked. “Yeah”, Ally replied wondering why her best friend was telling her something she already knew. “They have a part open, and I’m auditioning”, Julia squeaked. The two of them screamed with excitement. “When are you going”? Ally asked unable control her curiosity. “3 weeks, I could try to invite you. If you’d like”, she added. There was a slight pause in which Ally was thinking. Thinking about the “movie”. Was this really going to happen? “3 weeks”, she repeated. You do know what’s happening in 3 weeks, right? Julia was stunned. Here she was telling Ally the best news of her life so far but all she could about was school! “School, so”, Julia asked. “I can’t skip school”, Ally said rather mean. “I’m sorry, I am not trying to brag or anything”, Julia said. “I know”, Ally said back in her soft voice. “Bye”, Julia said. “Bye”, Ally said. Julia lied against her tootsie roll pillow. She looked out of her window. There was little light still shinning through them. Julia called Nicole. Nicole was the least adventurous. Unlike Julia and Ally, Nicole preferred to be “out of danger”. She liked adventures but if there was a slim chance of her getting in trouble she was out. Somehow she had always been dragged along. She was ind of short compared to the others, and had short brown hair. They continued their conversation for a while. This time it had gone much smoother. ~CHAPTER 5~ Days turned into weeks of boredom. One week until the big move. Ally invited Nicole and Julia over to her house. They greeted each other at the crisp white door. They went to Ally’s room. IT was messy. Clothes were on the ground along with her CD’s of her favorite bands: Daughtry and Maroon 5. There were school books scattered here and there. IN conclusion it was messy. Ally cleared a spot on the colorful bed and motioned for the two of them to sit down. “So Juls” Nicole started. “When’s the audition”? “One week”, Julia said. Nicole and Ally looked at each other and nodded their heads. “What”? Julia asked. “ We are going to get you ready for the movie in case you get the part”, Ally said. “We are? Nicole asked. What about the other thing”? “What other thing”, Julia said with a confused look on her face. “ We can do that later”, Ally suggested ignoring Julia’s question. Ally is more of a tomboy as you probably have figured out by now. After you read what’s next you will be surprised. “Wear these”, Ally told holding out a pair of silver sparkly high heels. “Why do I need these”, Julia said scared. Not a scared-scared but a scared-to-wear-high-heels-shoes-scared. “ Are you sure we won’t get in trouble, because I doubt those are your shoes, no offense Ally”, Nicole asked being her worried self. “Relax”, Ally said ignoring Julia’s question once again. Julia put the shoes on her feet. She started to wobble. She took two steps without falling and the third she fell to the ground with a thunk. “Ow”, Julia yelled. She had twisted her ankle. It wasn’t that bad but it still hurt. “Bad idea. Are you O.K? ” ally asked. “I knew something like this was going to happen. Are you O.K Juls? I am sooooooooo sorry. Nicole started to mumbled a few more words. “I’m fine”, Julia lied because it still hurt but her worrying friend went on. Ally apologized to Julia for making her wear the high heels although Julia knew that it was the clothes on the messy floor that made her trip not the shoes. * * * * * * * * One week had gone by like that. Back at the Lintheart’s Rose was throwing a fit after Mrs. Lintheheart explained where and why they were moving. “It’s not fair. It’s not fair at all. Why does she get everything she wants? It’s not fair”, Rose pouted stomping her tiny feet on the ground. “Now Rose be patient, her mother started, you’ll get turn. “I don’t want to be patient”, Rose said angrily. Julia came downstairs with her suitcase. They had packed earlier and were on there way. They piled into the silver minivan. When they arrived at the airport they waited. If you have a younger sibling and are going somewhere you probably know how it is. They create a scene, then a million pair of eyes look your way and well, you get humiliated. That’s exactly what Rose did. So I am not going to waste my time and your time describing the humiliation of Julia. They boarded the plane. The plane was quite small, but it had comfortable seats. The windows were shaped rectangles. Rose got the window seat, her mother was in the middle, and Julia got the aisle seat. As soon as Julia sat down she fell asleep. “Jules”, Mrs. Lintheart whispered. Julia’s eyes slightly opened then closed again. “Jules”, Mrs. Lintheart said a little louder. Nothing. “JULIA”, Rose screamed at the top of her lungs. Julia abruptly opened her eyes. She looked around the rest of the plane was empty. “We’re here, Mrs. Lintheart announced, in Hollywood”. ~CHAPTER 7~ They checked their luggage in. The people there were all very well-dressed. IT was mainly adults who were walking through the long lines. “Right outside this airport is Hollywood”, Julia whispered to Rose. “Just a few more minutes, Julia, Mrs. Lintheart explained. Then we will go by taxi to our hotel. “What’s our hotel like”? Rose asked her mother. Well, it’s called Hollywood Orchid Suites. It’s not too fancy but it is expensive, her mother replied as the three of them walked towards the door. We have been given the deluxe suite. Julia wasn’t listening she kept walking with her eyes focused on the door. Julia swung it open. There was a giant hill with HOLLYWOOD printed on it in big white letters. All three of the faces smiled. There was also a busy road making not too hard to find a taxi cab. They hopped in the bright yellow cab. “Where to”? The cab driver asked in his deep-commercial-like voice. “The Hollywood Orchid Suite”, Rose said in her high pitched voice answering for her mother. He driver dropped them off and waved goodbye. Mrs. Lintheart led the way inside while Rose took her time skipping and twirling in her ridiculously pink blouse and her pink sparkly shirt to match. They walked into the lobby. “ Who might you be”, the guy behind the counter asked Rose. “My name is Rose Lintheart”, Rose answered. “Lintheart eh”, the guy behind the counter said as he started to type something in the computer. “Ah yes, you will be staying in suite #339. Enjoy your stay”, he added as they started to walk away. Julia twisted the knob of suite #339. It wouldn’t budge. “You have to use the key card silly”, Rose said twirling. Julia didn’t remember Rose getting the key card from the guy behind the counter. Anyway, Julia slid the card inside and waited for the small green light to come up. She opened the door and walked inside. The room was cool. Two king sized beds, two T.V’s and a bathroom. On one of the beds they found a note. Julia read it aloud. Dear Julia Lintheart, We would like to inform you that your audition will take place tomorrow at Hollywood Studios. Be there no later than 12:00 pm. Your lines are attached to this note. Good Luck. “What else does it say?” Mrs. Lintheart asked. Your Lines You: Mom I’m bored. (say in a whiny voice) Mom: We have to go pick up your sister then go to the mall. You: Again? I hate going there. Mom: We need clothes for fall. You: Don’t I need clothes for winter first? Mom: We got those last week. Julia practiced with her mother. She stumble on every other word. “What was that”, Rose said being mean. Julia shot her a nasty look. “I’m just saying, Rose continued, that you acted better at Lavendar’s house”. “What are you talking about”? Julia asked, as if Rose was crazy. “You acted as if you hated going to Lavendar’s house when you enjoyed it. You pretended to be mad but you had nothing better to do. Julia knew that she was partially correct. Fine, Julia knew she was a hundred percent correct, but she still acted like Rose was crazy. “Why don’t you try again, Julia”, Mrs. Lintheart said trying to break the tension between the two sisters. Julia tried again and got it almost perfect. “What’s this”, Rose said pointing to the piece of paper with the lines on it. Julia took the piece of paper out of Rose’s hands. She looked at it carefully, there was another verse of lines. Do I have to recite these lines too, she thought to herself. The lines were sad. They were about girl who finds her long lost mother. “Let’s practice these too”, Julia told her mother. They practiced. There was crying scene that Julia just couldn’t get right. “Try thinking of something sad”, Rose said. Julia took this advice. She thought and thought but couldn’t find anything sad. Julia finally got something from her own life. Her dad. It seemed so long since Julia had seen him. Tears welled up in her eyes. “Mom, when will we see dad”? “If you get the part soon enough, if you don’t we could still visit him on set, but we’d have to notify him first”. Julia had a mission. The same mission as before (to get the part) but for a different reason. She longed to see her father. ~CHAPTER 8~ She slept through the night. She was ready, only half an hour till auditions. She was given an outfit to wear (provided by Hollywood Studios). It was a light blue baby doll top with black leggings. The lobby was big and grand. I do not know how to describe it other than the simple words big and grand. They went through the double doors and outside. They fetched a cab and rode on the busy streets of Hollywood. They pulled into the parking lot of Hollywood Studio. They walked inside and saw 15 other girls waiting to audition. Since she was the last audition, she saw some girls coming out crying, and others expressionless. It had black floors and there were three judges. There was also a person next to her that acted like the mom. The judges explained that she could choose either of the two verses to audition. Julia considered this thought very carefully. At the end she decided that she would choose the mall one because she practiced it more and she could relate to it better. Julia had butterflies in her stomach. She spoke clearly, and said the words with emotion. Julia felt a bit better. She thought that she had nailed the audition, but only time would tell if she got the part. She waited in the room along with the other girls. She was nervous. The main judge came out. He cleared his throat, “The winner who gets the part is Julia Lintheart.” Julia gasped. “Me”, Julia said scarcely believing what she just heard. Julia ran over her mother and gave her a hug. “Rose, thanks for your advice it really worked, and I knew you were right all along”, Julia told her sister. Julia felt like this was too good to be true. She had accomplished her mission, but still so many unanswered questions. Little did Julia realize that this was only the beginning.
attracting/feeding wild birds from window??? hi, i dont have much of a garden and would like to feed the wild birds from my bedroom window (upper storey). how would i go about this and is there any specialist equipment for feeding birds from windows? i had thought about suction cups or screws on the wall but was worried the contraption would fall and land on somebodys head! i just want a simple feeder to give a small amount of seed and some water and maybe a fat ball, i dont mind making one but i dont no what sort of design to go for... also, do you think it would be wise to put a few plants out to attract them, or would a windowbox on a high window be too dangerous. the problem is i dont know how i would fix the feeders etc. to the ledge or window, any ideas??? i suppose i could look at pet bird feeders to see if they'd be suitable...

Alternative To Closet Door? Custom Cut Fabric Designs? Remodeling bedroom that has a smaller walk in closet. I removed the 80"Lx30"W door from the closet for use downstairs. What can I use instead of a door that looks good? The bedroom will be full of furnishings and a computer desk will basically make the door useless so its out. I was thinking a custom cut piece of fabric with some type of design on it. But fabric would need some sort of hook or loop on the top 2 corners to where it can hang right in the doorframe but can quickly be slid or moved for access to closet. Any feedback or ideas are welcome.
