HappyGirl

I'm planning on redoing my bedroom with blues and yellows. I found a pretty comforter set (sort of a country look) and I want to paint the walls and have accesories to go with the theme, any great ideas? Detail descriptions and pics would be great.

Answer
You have chosen the colours of "Provence" if you look that up in Google" Fabric of Provence" you will find all the help in regard of the colours and decor , it sounds refreshing especially if you add lavender to a vase and a picture of a lavender field or France in your room .

What are some DIY or home decor ideas for pea green paint?

jwdylm21

I have a full can of pea green paint and nothing to do with it. I was going to use it on my walls but after i bought it i realized it wouldn't look very good with what i have in the room, I also don't want to buy a whole new set of furniture but i don't want to waste the paint either. I love doing DIY projects and crafty things but i can't seem to think of a good project to use the paint any ideas?

Answer
You can try to alter the color by adding white or other bases or you can try and work with it like these picture did..

Ideas for a blank wall in my bedroom?

banana23

I'm a 14 year old girl in the process of redoing my bedroom. On one wall i have paintings,on another i have my bed and shelves, and on the other i have my closets and bookshelf. I have one wall not covered. Its about a ten foot wall and so far i only have my vanity there. I have 4 feet of space i need to cover and i dont know what to do. Help!

Answer
You might have fun with removable wall decals. I was surprised at how fun and easy they were to put up and take down. Not that expensive either. Just search online for "removable wall decals" and you'll find MANY to choose from. You can see a random example here http://www.etsy.com/listing/37587890/wall-art-decor-decal-sticker-removable?ref=shop_home_active

Maybe cream walls instead of yellow, light or maybe mid pink and black. Maybe add some silver, grey or white in to make things a bit more fun and eye catching.

I hate my new baby pink room!!!?

<333

My mum painted my room baby pink while i was away. Im 13!!! They make me feel like im 8 years old. Because my curtains are purple and my walls really light pink. Like cotton candy pink and then i have cream carpet. I CANT STAND IT! i even slept in my mums room. She spent alot of time and effort on it though and i appreciate that but im angry she didn't even listen to me or ask me. I said i wanted purple but they don't dark colours i mean our whole house is cream coloured that even my mum is sick of it. Im really upset i've been waiting to get my room decorated ever since i was 10. It was on my to do list for 3 years! And i feel really sad now. If i knew she was going to do this i would have just kept my dirty cream colour i had before! I don't think shes going to paint it again. My room used to be the place i always stayed in and loved and now im really upset. Its like my personality is gone from this room. Its like im in a nightmare i wish i would just wake up and see my cream coloured wall again. Even tho it was dirty and i drew on it.

I either:
Cover it with drawings and posters (im gonna need like 50) to cover it.
Swap rooms with my mum. Which is sad because i love having my own room and she shares with my dad.
Or what curtains and bed covers would make a baby pink room less... Babyish? And more fun and creative.
I even asked for this as a birthday present so they wouldn't procrastinate it again
@hayley Lol i would love my room to be pitch black or red. Anything more interesting. I mean she couldnt have chose a worse colour than baby pink
@Nemo. Purple is awesome but i don't want my room to be purple and light pink! That looks really childish

Answer
It's really hard luck that you don't like the pink and purple decor your mum added to your bedroom. However, it's not exactly the end of the world. You lived through having what you describe as 'dirty cream walls' so having a pink bedroom wont kill you. Your mum obviously tried to do a nice thing for you, and heavens knows modern day mum's have got enough on their plates! It's a shame she made a mistake but she's only human, and sleeping i her room or making her swap rooms for you makes it seem like your ungrateful for her attempt.

Just appreciate the fact you've got your room decorated! I haven't been able to decorate my room in 10 years because it's just not something I can afford right now. I know the colour of your room can set the tone for your mood but come on, it is only pink. Thank the lord it's not neon red or pitch black. You'll soon get used to the colour and I think moving out of your room is a little drastic. People have lived in far worse conditions.

And like you mentioned, worse comes to worse just start cutting pictures out of your favourite band or actress to cover the walls, it's what most kids your age do now anyway.

EDIT: You can have a pink and black sort of decor of you wish. It actually looks quite classy and grown up, but it would take a lot more work and effort. Try googling 'pink and black rooms' and see what you think:

What are some good quality and trusty cruise lines?

hopeful

Looking at a trip to the Bahamas... any suggestions on what cruise line to look into?

Answer
Carnival, Royal Caribbean, Norwegian Cruise Line, Disney.... All would be a great vacation and offer a lot. Each has their own pros and cons:

Carnival:
Pros: Cheap, fun, biggest in world, great food
Cons: Ships are very flashy in decor, not as good of service, not as much to do on ships

Royal Caribbean:
Pros: BIG ships, great service,
Cons: a bit more expensive than Carnival, food isn't as good as

NCL
Pros: all new ships, "freestyle" dining,
Cons: bad food in regular dining room... you can pay extra for better dining, part of "freestyle" dining.

Disney
Pros: Two beautiful ships, Castaway Cay (private island), Great service and food, tons to do, Mickey and the gang.
Cons: expensive, lots of kids, not a good choice for disney haters.

All of the following and even some other cruise lines would be great for a trip to the Bahamas. One thing you should know is that the older ships tend to do those cruises as they are shorter so beware. The youngest ship doing a Bahamas inteniary is the Norwegian Sky which I've been on. It was a great cruise.

How would I go about designing an Audrey Hepburn bedroom?

vintage kids bedroom decor image

Lulu

My room is teeny tiny and my mum is allowing me to do whatever I want to it, I want an Audrey Hepburn style room, my family has bought me a few pictures. What colour scheme/furniture would look best to work with the theme? I am 16 next month if thats important...
She was an old hollywood actress

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audrey_Hepburn

Tada!

Answer
Audrey Hepburn was a very stylish lady of the times. She was most famous in films in the 1950's. So I would choose things from that era.

She worn pearls, tight waist belts to show off her tiny waistline, she carried a fashionable purse always and a hat.
She was always very put together.

One of the ideas in decorating in that time frame was to do a black and white decor with splashes of pinks, blacks or grays. Sometimes reds. They had silver fabrics too with lots of shimmer and elegance.
Choose things with lots of sparkle she was a Hollywood star!
Poka-dots were really in fashion.

Furniture was a modern now retro style, very streamline in style or to the other extreme of curves more Victorian in style and often in white or deep wood tones. Tufted headboards on the beds with tacks.
Art nouveau mirrors , elegant chairs, Chrystal glass sparkly lamps.
You can likely find much of the furniture are used stores or Salvation Army stores. A little paint or furniture polish they will look new again.

Here are some links to some decals of dots to carry through the idea of poka-dots onto your walls. The poka-dots were usually black on pink or black or red on white. You could paint your room pink and put some dots all over a wall and a few scattered in limited areas on other walls to tie it in.

what do i need to do and buy to re paint my bedroom?

Q. my mom has said i can re decorate my room as long as i buy all the paint etc but to be honest i havent got a clue, if i was left to do it on my own i would probably just go and buy some paint, and wack it all on the wall. but it cant be as easy as that can it :s so can anyone tell me like what different things i'd need to buy and how to go about painting my room?

Answer
Don't worry! It really CAN be that easy if you're decorating a small kid's room! However, if you're doing a big makeover on a teens room, especially a girl's, it can require a bit more planning!

First off, get a theme or colour scheme. For example, you could decorate your room in a shabby-chic style or maybe a more glamorous movie-star theme! It's up to You! If you don't want a theme then just get a colour scheme. Say, bright candy-apple green and lollipop pink! This can look AMAZING! This is a website with lots of different themes. Just click on the themes in the top left-hand corner for inspiration!

http://themeroomideas.com/Victorian/Vintage-style-decorating-ideas.html

http://themeroomideas.com/Marie-Antoinette-style/bedroom-decor.html

Move around your furniture if you think it will look better with, say, the bed under the window and your desk near the door.Now buy your bedding, paint, and curtains, as these can really change a room! Buy bedding that either matches your paint or is in a coordinating colour. Look at these websites or Google around for ideas and pictures!

http://www.home-designing.com/2008/09/teen-room-ideas

http://www.roomdecoratingideas.net/black-and-white-bedroom-decorating-ideas.php

You colud paint all your walls, just one accent wall behind the bed, (This is what I did in my room! :D ) or you could do stripes or wallpaper! It's up to you!

Once you've got your basics, do the really fun part. Shopping! Bring a friend if you like and go to lots of different shops. Try to look out for...
Beanbags,
Floor cushions,
Mirrors,
Wall Art,
Cute Furniture like trunks that you can store stuff in!
Lamps,
A cool headboard,
An area or accent rug (This is quite important!)
And stuff like that.

Display medals & trophies you've won, framed school papers, photos and general treasures to personalise your room. Have fun and enjoy it and don't forget Fairy Lights!

I'm decorating my new place, can you help with ideas?

kids bedroom ideas yellow image

Q. I just purchased a cute new little 2 bedroom house.
I thought I had it all figured out the way I wanted to decorate it but i'm still stumped! I need some ideas or a thought for inspiration to decorate my place.

About me-
I love french culture
My favorite colors are- cool colors like blues, purples and greens but I also like white and light yellow
I'm a kid at heart but i'm a big girly girl
I like flowers, skirts, dresses, hats, perfume, flip flops, handbags and jewelry
Hawaii is the ultimate vacation spot
I love mellow music but i'm a rocker girl also
I like to relax and read a good magazine
I love to bake and I could live on drinking grape soda

sooo can anybody come up with some good themes for rooms in my new home? Thanks!
I think I want to do the guest room in all white with colored pillows and stuff what do you think?

Answer
Shabby chic all the way! Hit the flea markets..A great way to redecorate is to recycle. Use an old or new outdoor bird bath inside as a side table or in the bath to hold candles and bath supplies. Add an affordable glass top and wa-la! Instant table. You can also pick up many old architectural pieces at flea markets...paint them, sand them down a bit and you have instant character to any room. An old door can be stood in a corner or used as the top of a coffee or sofa table. The trick is to umber over any color you paint...this gives the piece instant aging and character. Shabby chic is the way to go....understated yet refined if done correctly.

Can someone help me with ideas for a bright yellow bedroom?

Laura S

Im going to paint my room a bright and saturated yellow. I dont know what i want to do with bedding but i am leaning towards giraffe print. I want a metal headboard and maybe even a footboard. i want to incorporate a little bit of dance but i dont know if that will be too much. Any ideas for a nice fresh room?

Answer
I would say to not do the giraffe bedding. Stick with a dark brown, including moca colored furniture too.
Since you want to include dance you could get stencils to put above your Headboard that says "DANCER" or something like that.
I am not sure of your age (are you a kid, teenager, or adult) So I have to generalize a little. You could furnish your room with little knick-knacks that are related to dance. You could also hire someone to paint a mural on one wall of your choice that pertains to dance. if you really want the giraffe bedding i would make sure it has the same tones that are throughout your room. Also i would not go with a metal headboard, I don't believe it would match the overall vision you seem to want in your room.

Hope I helped!

Which is the best Disney hotel for families?

wreindl

We are 2 families with 4 kids age 8 - 14 and want to spend 1 week in Disneyworld, Orlando. We definitely want to stay in one of the Disneyworld hotels. Can you tell me which one is the best for families - I have heard some are already really old and should not be used anymore?

Answer
It depends on what you want out of your resort. First of all you made a great decision to stay on property, there is not a resort or hotel anywhere around the Disney area that can hold a candle to what the Disney resorts themselves offer in terms of service and perks. Disney takes great care of their resort guests, whether you are in the value or the deluxe.

The decor of all of the resorts is outstanding, so it just depends on what you are looking for. Each of the families is going to need 2 rooms in most of the resorts, since they will only accomodate 4 people per room. The home away from home resorts/Disney Vacation Club resorts all have suites that accomodate from 4 to up to 12 people, so that could be an option. I also believe that the All-Star value resorts are adding family suites that can accomodate 6. Lets start with the values.

There are 4 different categories of Disney resort, value, moderate, deluxe, and Vacation Club. First, the value resorts are just that. They are expertly decorated, have huge pools, a good food court, but on the downside they are inexpensive so the rooms are on the smaller side and there is not a sit down table service restaurant. However, these are excellent choices for families. My favorite in this category is the All-Star Movies resort, with Pop Century a close second.

The moderates are a bit bigger than the values. The rooms are a little bigger, and they offer a sit down table service restaurant along with the food court. There is a large themed pool, but there is also smaller pools in each section as well. There are plenty of things to do in each of these resorts besides the Disney parks as well. Keep in mind that these resorts will probably only be able to accomodate 4 per room, so you will need 2. My favorite in this category is the Caribbean Beach resort. The resort itself is very large, but we loved our stay there.

The deluxe resort are the top of the resorts in price and amenities. These are the resorts that are located around the Seven Seas Lagoon in front of the Magic Kingdom, and are all connected by the monorail system (except for the Animal Kingdom Lodge, which is near the Animal Kingdom). These have so much to do, have multiple restaurants, and even have character meals (don't miss the character breakfast at Chef Mickey's in the Contemporary, regardless of where you stay! It is a favorite of ours.) My favorite in this category and my favorite overall is the Polynessian.

The Disney Vacation club resorts are the home away from home resorts. They have everything from a studio, one bedroom condo, two bedroom condo, to a grand villa (basically a townhouse that sleeps 12.) These come with a kitchenette (in the studio accomodations) or a full kitchen complete with utensils and everything you need to cook a meal. My favorite in this category is Saratoga Springs (and a close, close second to the Polynessian.)

There are a few websites you can go to and get tons more info. First, I would recommend going to the Disney website and using their resort comparison tool. You can compare the resorts in each category and decide what is going to work for you. You can even get a quote as to what your particular package will cost. Also, check out the disboards. The disboards is a message board website that is all about going to WDW. You can ask questions, get trip reports, itineraries from others guests, dining reviews, resort reviews, and tips from people who go to Disney often and know what they are talking about. Also, go to the bookstore and pick up the Birnbaum's guide to WDW. There are a ton of guide books out there, but that is the one that worked best for us.

I would also suggest that when you get your passes to the parks to at the very least add the Park Hopper option. It will add a small amount to the price of the passes, however it is worth the cost. The base ticket allows you to enter one park per day. With the park hopper you basically can come and go as you please. For example, if you were to go to the Animal Kingdom for the day, then decide you want to go back to MGM to ride Tower of Terror and catch the Fantasmic night time show (both must sees!) you would only be able to do that with the Park hopper option. It just gives you the ultimate in flexibility, which is what you want going to Disney.

Hope this helps, have a great trip!!

I'm redecorating my teenage girl bedroom and I need help?

girls bedroom horse decor image

Janet

I am a teenage girl (13) and I'm moving into a bigger room. (It's like a mini-master bedroom,lol.)
I don't know the size of the bedroom but if it helps it has two windows and four walls.
I'm not buying new furniture except a desk and maybe seating.
I really want to decorate a room I will never outgrow till I move out.
Here are my questions:
1. What colors should I paint on the walls? (that matches everything)
2. What colors should I paint on the furniture? (that matches everything)
3. Are there any cute bedding out there? (preferably an inexpensive bed in a bag or quilt)
4. Are wall stickers recommended? List all of the pros and cons.
5. Are there any cool but cheap posters I could buy?
6. Are there any interesting area/accent rugs?
7. How can I organize my room?
8. Any other creative ways to decorate my room?

To make answering my question easier, I will tell you a little about myself.
I love animals especially dogs, cats, rabbits, and horses.
I am very passionate about writing stories.
I love to read, watch movies and TV shows, do art, and use the computer.
I am not necessarily a girly-girl but not a tomboy. (Though, I have more tomboy in me.)
I hate jewerly, makeup, and nail polish. (Dunno that would help with room makeovers.)
I am not into music, sports, and things like that.
I love my stuffed animals and I love candy =D

Thanks for answering and sorry if this is too long.

What is fun about choosing a neutral color is that you can add pops of color in pillows, bedspreads, lamps, through rugs etc.


Using color wheels are fun and you can get ideas here. Start with your neutral and use the wheel to show pops of color

Paint your walls dark blue

get a white or white and blue comforter (main colours on the bags)

get shopping bags from there - they are usually nice and thick cardboard almost with pictures of the models on them - cut out the front and back of the bags and frame them for wall decoration

also for other accessories go into the store and just really pay attention to if they have lamps or anything in the store and use that as inspiration

I want it to be fun and girly.
My room is rather big, so theres going to be alounge section with my tv and the other part will have my bed/ dresser.
Any cute things i could buy for my room? Any visions? any ideas to go off of?

*** I don't have a lot of money sooo if you could find something kind of cheap like in the $100 and lower for bean bags and furniture of that kind and like small decor like wall stuff 80 and under? thanks! (:
for got to say--- I love animal prints and stuff like that too! oh! And music like Avril Lavigne, Cher Lloyd, etc. fashion and music definitely play a huge part in my life
furniture can actually be 200 and under... accidentally hit the 1. (:

Answer
You could do a fun fashionable paris style bedroom using black damask and things like that. Check out http://www.target.com/c/curtains-blinds-shades-home-decor/-/N-5xtu1#?lnk=sr_rd_curtains for curtains. Get a chandelier, and a vanity. Find big pillows and place them around your room.

What would be a good decor scheme for a bedroom shared by 3 year old girl and baby boy?

starlight_

We're having a baby boy and for the time being (until we get a bigger place) my 3 year old daughter and he will share a room. My daughter already has everything decked out in pink and full of princess accessories. I haven't bought my crib set or anything like that for my boy yet. How could I have them share a room and have it all tie in together so it doesn't look like one side is for a boy and one for a girl? I'm also looking for relativley affordable options, since they will probably only share for one year at the most. And my paint options are limited. I would have to go with something nuetral so I can easily paint it back to white before we move again, or maybe put up a border to dress up the walls.

Answer
Try a nature theme. Blues, pinks, purples, greens and yellows with rainforest animals, farm life or underwater life is gender non specific. These themes will "grow up" with your kids and not be outdated in a few years.

Little girl's room DIY projects with songbird theme?

girls bird bedroom decor image

Rachael

My baby girl is getting close to her 2nd birthday and we planning to replace her nursery furniture with a distressed white Provencal bedroom suite and toddler bed (we'll get the matching big-girl bed later).

I want to redecorate her room with something less babyish and more little-girly. She absolutely LOVES birds. I was hoping to do something around a songbird theme for her room, but I'm not having many ideas. It's hard for me to mesh girlish with birds, since I always think of stuffy libraries and Audubon prints when I think about bird-theme decor.

I'm fairly clever with crafts and I can draw/paint pretty well. If anyone has any fun ideas for some bird-themed projects, I'd really appreciate the help. Thanks!

Is this a good way to decorate a 13 year olds girls bedroom? Any other ideas?

Suzie

I'm a 13 year old girl and I am moving to this really cool, old house and because I'm the youngest I get the smallest room. Now, because I get the smallest room my parents said I could decorate it however I want and can get new furniture. The room is a nice blue already a, which I like and will keep. The door and windows are made of a dark wood and there is hardwood flooring. I want to go to places like goodwill and get old furniture with lots of character. I want to know what I should do with the furniture. Should I get wood furniture as I described, or should I get that furniture and paint them all. If the second, what should I paint the bed, desk, dresser and possibly desk chair (I may keep my rolling one)? They could all be a different color. Any ideas of how else I should decorate it or where I could get the furniture. Don't worry about price, because I get the smallest room, they are letting me spend as much as I want.

Answer
If the furniture you get is wood, make sure to give it a great stain, that way it will give it a great rich look, as well as lots of character. If you want, white furniture is always a great color in a blue room, so by (prime first!) painting (spray paint is best when painting furniture, less drips) the white will look really fresh. maybe paint just one item, like a chair, a really bright color, in place of the white to give the room a punch.

Vinyl Wall Decals (big decor stickers) are a great way to create a statement wall:

How do you make a modern and vintage room?

1960s bedroom decor image

cannesull

How can you pull together a vintage and modern room at the same time?? My two tastes that i absolutely love are opposites :( i love extreme vintage and extreme modern. im redoing my room. HOW???

Answer
It's quite possible but you have to be careful in the furnishing & decor you select. Pop Atomic (1960s Jetson look), Op Art (also 60s with bold colors and geometrics), Scandinavian (think Eero Saarinen) & 70s vintage (aka Brady Bunch) are furniture styles that are vintage but look awesome with modern touches.

My daughters bedroom is a 70s retro with BoHo accents & animal prints, and it looks quite fantastic :)

I want to re-do my room vintage/60's style, what should I do?

Any tips to designing a Chinese theme bedroom?

paola_agui

I'm moving to a new home in 3 weeks or so, and this gives me an opportunity to design my room the way I've always wanted. I've always wanted to go for a Chinese themed bedroom, and I'm looking for any tips on how to start with this new project. So If you have any ideas, feel free to tell... Anything from Wall decor, to floors, to furniture is welcome!

Answer
a traditional chinese themed? or are you looking for an american interpretation of a chinese themed bedroom?

either way...you might want to look in to bamboo materialed/colored things, dark/semi dark wood oriented furniture with oriental design. do not get Bonsai planet, cuz thats japanese. if you're looking into more feminine stuff...try lotus, plum (the flower), and chrysanthemum. for guys...try kirin, dragon (chinese looking ones)...or if you want (tho not necessarily recommended) the chinese horoscope.

chinese people loves the color red, but we use it more on weddings...you might consider that as well. the wall decor, you can look into asian calligraphy styled painting, a fan (hanging)...or perhaps an authentic chinese character sucha as fortune. 2 chairs/stools with a table...small end tables...chinese lantern...ceramic tea set...perhaps incents....all these can be considered as decor :D for windows you can use beads instead of curtains (like the beads yoou hang in the doorway, wooden beads...i hope you know what i'm talking about)

also, google oriental living, or oriental decorating..it'll help. the thing about having a chinese themed bedroom is that you might end up with things that are "oriental themed" but has nothing to do with chinese. you should do a little bit of search just in case :)

Ideas on how to turn a basement into a little place for kids?

kids bedroom sets boys image

supermommy

I was thinking on creating different spaces for them. A kitchen/dining room, living room, office, and possibly a bedroom area. I was thinking of dividing the "rooms" with king size sheets, hung in a neat manner. Our basement isn't finished or anything (drywall/paint, etc) but is in good enough shape to have a little fun with it. I don't know if I am allowed to paint or put anything on the floor (except carpet...not tacked down) And ideas, thoughts, tips? It doesn't have to be perfect....my little ones are just happy to have a place to play. Budget is small~creativity is limitless. THANKS!

Answer
A table or old desk for a craft area. Then hang baskets or an old shoe organizer to put craft materials in:glue, paint, brushes, crayons, markers, scissors, glitter, stickers,etc.

Old file cabinet painted a funky color to hold materails like paper and finished projects. you can also hang a clothes line for them to clip paintings on to dry and to display finished works of art!

Maybe in one area, you could put a bunch of thick blankets and floor pillows down for a cozy pallet/nest to nap on.

Not sure how old your kids are or if they are boys/girls, but you could have an area with books, and puzzles, another make believe area with dress up stuff and "props" (umbrella, old high heels, old halloween wigs, feather boa, purses)... I loved to play "kitchen" when I was littel. If they have a play kitchen then when you run out of food, save the boxes/jars/containers for them to play "kitchen" with. Any old plastic dishes you don't use anymore... or if they don't have a kitchen, 2 chairs and table will work! A big box or set of shelves can hold the "food".


Lots of mirrors since I doubt the basement has many windows...Let the kids create the art and frame it in an old frame and decorate with those! You can even create with them and hang your work on the wall too!

What priviledge does a single-mom have with the bedroom size with a boy and girl?

wildflower

I am a single mom of a boy age 8 and a girl age 10. We have lived in my mothers's basement sharing the same space for 6 years, now we have a 2 bedroom apartment and I being the parent took the larger room and gave the children the smaller room. I have not received to much applause for doing that from the grandparents but everyone else, such as friends and my sister thinks it's the priviledge of being the parent and the children should graduate to a larger room after cleaning and learning to keep their smaller room in order. I just want to know what others think about this set up I have with my kids.

Answer
If it were me, I would take the smaller room since they are sharing one.

How to decorate toddler's room?

kids room train decor image

Heather H

3 year old boy, moving to new house want to make him feel comfortable, has never really slept by himself. Any ideas would help. He likes cars, he likes to build and he likes star wars

Answer
Since he hasn't really slept by himself, the most important part of the room is the bed. The best way to get him happy with the bed and to sleep in it, is to let him feel like he is getting to decide on the bedding and to make it his own. I suggest narrowing it down to 2 choices and then let him decide between them. (more than 2 or 3 choices could be overwhelming for a 3 year old) - one thing about bedding, though - my son got spoiled by our high thread count bedding and even though he loves character bedding, thinks it's cool - he only wants to sleep with a good sheets and down comforter. You know what your son is used to, so take that into account for his comfort in his new bed.
You did not mention whether or not you had a bed for him yet. My son has one of those toddler car beds. The mattress from his crib fits it. It does take up alot of room for a toddler bed though. Target has character toddler beds - there is a Disney Cars one and a Star Wars one. I got a similar one with Dora theme for my daughter and it was pretty easy to put together with 2 people, her crib matteress fits and she loves that she sleeps with her favorite character every night. The Disney Cars theme has a "room in a box" at Target that includes a table, chairs, toy storage & toddler bed. Target also has large Star Wars characters for the wall - I don't know if they are repositionable, there wasn't much description. look under Kids - Favorite Characters - Star Wars - Artwork. There was also Star Wars bedding and throw pillows.
After the bed, the next most important thing is storage and I'm not talking about clothing storage, I am sure you already have that covered. I know you want the room to look cute, but it will never stay looking cute if you don't have enough storage for toys, books, etc. It will only look cluttered.
If you set up the room with storage that your son can easily reach and access himself without help, you can train him early to keep his room tidy to save yourself headaches (and backaches) down the road. You may be able to pick out storage to coordinate with your colors or theme. There are lots of options out there. Whatever you pick out, make an activity with your son, out of deciding what toys to put where. Put all of a type of toy in one spot (like all cars in one, all star wars in another,etc.)
If the storage container is not decorated...and you have a digital camera, have him pick out a few of his favorites, take a picture, print it out and put it on the front of the storage container, to help him remember what goes in.
Toys R Us has some room decor stuff from the Disney Cars movie - hooks and a covered storage bin. You can hang some hooks at a level convenient for you, but try to hang some at his level so he can hang up things himself. Toys R Us also has a railroad crossing light that is kinda cute for a boy. (look for these things in the "R Room Decor" section)

A growth chart for the wall or door that coordinates with your room -- they grow so fast at this age and my toddlers have fun finding out every few months how much they have grown.

Try to make it fun for your son, he'll love spending time in it more if he gets to feel like he is controlling how it will look.

as far as activities go-what do you like to do with your friends at their houses? how about a TV for your room? dart board? is there room for a pool table or other type of game table? how about a table for puzzles? you could get beanbag chairs and play board games on the floor. get stuff to do makeovers (nail polish, face masks, make-up, etc....)

I also recommend if you have a yard, to get sports equiptment to enjoy the outdoors with your friends-thats what i did as a kid. there are all kinds of fun things to do outside (capture the flag was my fave!)

make yoru room comfy for just hanging out and listening to music and/or talking too.

good luck have fun!

Good Christmas gift for 9-10 year old girls, maybe a bedroom accesory?

bedroom decor games for girls online image

Boz

I need to find a gift for 9-10 year old girls,they are the last on my shopping list and I'm stuck, I would really like to wrap it up this week, online instead of hitting the over packed malls and stores, but willing to do so if that's what it takes..

They are into all the tween stuff, One Direction , Bieber, twilight and all Disney stars, anything to do with that would be great, and maybe if anything falls into a bedroom accessory, wall decor, game , lamp clock radio...as they have just recently got their own independent rooms for the first time.

If anyone can pint me in the right direction or give me ideas, you will make my week and have some good karma coming back, it doesn't have to be any of those interests I mentioned any other good idea will work as well..oh yeah between the $25-$50 range each..

Thanks!!!

Answer
Ok, posters and stuff is awesome, but if you want to be more creative, get them Klutz activity sets. They are like 20 bucks a set and REALLY fun. I loved them when I was 10. You can find them at Barnes and Nobles and other book stores.

Also, I know I've always wanted fairy lights in my room, like across my headboard and stuff. Thats a cool idea. Though theyll need help installing it...

Maybe you can get them one direction dolls? haha not too sure if they'd like that

Also, If they havent bought it already, get them One direction's/ justin biebers latest album.

It may be best to get them two of the same girts so their isnt any fighting
