Bedroom Talk
New bedroom decorating ideas?
I'm almost 17, getting ready to be a Senior in high school and a sophomore at community college, and I'm tired of my current bedroom, which is a little childish and chaotic (it's decorated as a beach and it's a little.. open?). I'd really love to make my bedroom more mature and relaxing with warm colors.. I was thinking of baby blue and dark chocolate brown, but I'm not sure.. Help!

- choose light color paint for the walls. darker ones for the curtains and light ones for the sheets. hide any childish accessories around the room and put some descent light fixtures.
- Baby blue and chocolate look great together. Find bedding you love first, paint the walls a shade of blue or tan from it and mix up different patterns for the draperies and accent pillows.
