My 15 year old sister-in-law wants to change her bedroom design from a mostly leopard print theme to techno. I want to help her but I really don't know what techno design for a room would look like. She doesn't have alot of money to completely refurnish the room so items like her leopard print area rug, leopard print lamp shades and picture frames will have to be used. Any ideas or pictures would be great.

When I think of a techno style bedroom I think of lots of fun bright cheery colors with nice white sleek backdrop. For a techno styled bedroom; you could do a modern look. Go for clean, straight lines if possible. I would go for a white or neutral backdrop with pops of color. If some new furniture pieces are in your budget look for white furniture (bed frame, dresser, desk, nightstand)or you can repurpose old furniture and paint it white. For accessories look for bright colors like orange (for a lamp; canât afford a new lamp you can take an existing lamp, sand it down and spray paint it in an high gloss orange (or whatever bright colors she likes), yellow (picture frames, pillows), and green (pillows, vases for flowers, etc.). If she doesnât like those colors, you can do any color combo that she will like. You can find a cheap/good looking area rug @ Wal-mart in white, but if you donât look for white (or another color) bath rugs and connect them together with carpet tape to make a large area rug. You can also change out the lamp shades for a cheap cost or you can cover existing lamp shades with fabric to match the new room décor. For the walls you can blow up her favorite DJ album covers and frame them; or you can get vector silhouettes of DJâs like this : http://garcya.us/blog/free-dj-vector-graphic-art/ or http://www1.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/2286211/2/istockphoto_2286211_dj_at_turntable or http://www1.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/4306917/2/istockphoto_4306917_dj_silhouette.jpg or http://www.smashingmagazine.com/images/iconsnew/bittbox.jpg http://www1.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/5671904/2/istockphoto_5671904_beach_party.jpg or images like these and have them blown up to put them on the walls. You can also blow up varying silhouettes of dancers and put them on the wall (http://www1.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/5753237/2/istockphoto_5753237_spring_girl.jpg http://www1.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/5768186/2/istockphoto_5768186_just_wanna_have ). Also music notes and headphones (http://www1.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/5481959/2/istockphoto_5481959_grunge_headphones.jpg http://www1.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/5802696/2/istockphoto_5802696_headphones.jpg http://www1.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/5881226/2/istockphoto_5881226_hand_drawn_musik_retro.jpg would be a cool option also. For bedding you can do something simple like white with a bright colored throw and pillows or bright colored bedding with white pillows and one bright colored accent pillow. Also for bedding you can do bedding in a fun solid color and do an image transfer of her favorite DJ or techno image. Hope this gives you a few ideas, good luck :)

where should i get stuff for my new room theme?
Camryn
ok so in the next month before summer my parents are gonna redo my room, paint it, and a theme. i don't know what color or theme to do.. please help. plus ideas of where to get them from as well.
Answer
Before anyone can help with specifics, you need to have a theme or color scheme in mind. Since you do not, that should be your first priority. Some links to help with picking a theme for your room:
http://teensthemes.com/
http://www.raftertales.com/decorate/decor-themes/25-cool-teen-bedroom-themes/
http://www.digsdigs.com/60-cool-teen-bedroom-design-ideas/
http://www.hgtv.com/topics/teen-bedrooms/index.html
If you do not see anything that you like on one of these, then you can do a basic web search for "teen bedroom themes" and go from there.
What I would suggest that you do is to take a moment or two and make a list of your likes and dislikes style-wise, your two favorite colors, and the things that are important to you (family, friends, music, etc.). You'll also want to note whether you are a girly-girl, a tom-boy or somewhere in-between the two. These things can help you identify your style. Then it becomes a simple matter of finding a theme that incorporates a good portion of the things on your list. You may want to get started on this and get it finalized soon, so that the parents know what to get paint and bedding wise.
Some other sites that can help are:
For paint & color applications: www.sherwin-williams.com
Hip/trendy bedding & wall art: www.target.com (Seriously, look before you laugh - You will be surprised!)
Area rugs, lamps/lighting & decor items: www.ikea.com/us
Wall murals: www.greatbigcanvas.com
Finally, some advice that is more my personal opinion than fact:
Avoid hot pink or lime green and zebra print - It's overdone and you want to be unique, right?
A style/theme that is subdued and elegant is something that can evolve as you mature. Just because it's fashionable now doesn't mean it will be a year from now. Your aim should be something that grows with you. An easy one to pull off is black & white plus your favorite color for accent pieces or monochromatic (black, gray, white with one accent color): There are so many interesting black & white patterned bedding sets and many black & white photo posters available on-line and in stores that it is really easy to customize.
Be subtle/sedate with the color you choose for your walls. It is far easier to accent with neon-bright colors in accessories, decor items, bedding items etc (and easier on the eyes) than it would be to live and sleep in a screaming pink or hyper lime colored room.
Good luck, have fun and I hope that you end up with a great room!
