Bedroom Talk

What are some cute teen bedroom theme ideas?

I'm redoing my room, and I really want it be kind of a BAM unique thing. I want the color scheme to be purple and green, but i want some kind of theme to go a long with it. Suggestions? (: I'm using light purples and greens, and I also really like butterflies and dragonflies, but I still want to know your opinions.

1. i got a bunch of scrapbooking paper and this stuff for sticking up posters, then i did like wall to wall scrapbooking paper. it's totally original and it's really cool. way easier than wallpaper 2.
2. I would say it depends on the shades of purple and green that your using, if you are using lighter colors that you could just use like geometric shapes and pop art and such to make it look kinda cool but if you are looking for a more sophisticated look i would say go for darker colors with simple furniture and lines. purple is my favorite color, the first room that i decorated had a large painting of grapes against a black background with semi-bright green leaves and the walls were royal purple, i then used the colors in the paintings in pillow cases and curtains and tried to do a leaf motif border around the room but i moved out before i could finish the plan.
3. I think you should toy with some animal prints!! I think a zebra print comforter would look really cool with your colour scheme. something like this: http://www.thejunglestore.com/Purple-Zebra-Leopard-Print-Bed-In-A-Bag-Set-Z398 might look really cool! this one comes in black, pink, green, light blue and dark blue. http://www.pbteen.com/products/p3200/index.cfm?clg=39&bnrid=3782901&cm_ven=Shopping&cm_cat=Shopzilla.com&cm_pla=Feed&cm_ite=Shopzilla.com I think if you want something that goes BAM get some really crazy bedding! the bed is usually the center of attention so make it AWESOME! Oh, and make sure to have some funky curtains, pillows and wall hangings to go with the theme. =]
4. well try going for a garden theme if you can tie it in try a Hawaiian or summery theme
5. I have found some really awesome decorating ideas at TheFurnitureDomain.com http://www.thefurnituredomain.com/ Some of my favorites that will tie in great with your color scheme are this super amazing mirror made from recycled magazines http://www.thefurnituredomain.com/aoto-mir030rd.html and this hand painted jewelry armoire http://www.thefurnituredomain.com/812-316.html They're both pieces that will be just as fun and functional when you're older, but are still fresh and pretty enough now for a teen bedroom. The theme could be "bringing the outside in" or "tying it all together" Hope you like them :)
6. Purple green are a good color combination, you could do like a polka dot theme, like paint one wall green w/ purple dots and visa versa. Or you could do like what ever your into right now, oh wait, NO don't do that because u may nt like at l8r. Oh! You should do like plaid or stripes. Well, if you just want to limit yourself to purple and green then it is going to be harder. YOU could do like a movie theme and do like a red carpet and paint your self in the wall with other stars.
