Would these colors look okay together with zebra in a bedroom?

Okay so I want to paint my walls Hot Pink and Black...I'm having all black furniture... Would it look okay to have lime green decor in it? Or would that be too much? THANKS!

Answer
Depends on whether it's some zebra pillows, or a lot more pattern than that. A lime green glass piece would be fine, but with black walls and furniture, I'd rather see more white.

Need some easy decorating ideas for a Master Bedroom?

Jen

We have an older four poster oak bedroom set-its sturdy and well made and I just cant bring myself to get rid of it. I would really love to spice up my bedroom decor but cant figure out what would go well with the brown oak "country style" bedroom set. Im more into a contemporary or eclectic look now and I need help with some options...thanks.

Answer
I had a Lane bedroom set. It was solid oak and gorgeous. It had a canopy bed, triple dresser, armoire and two nightstands. I had that set for at least 30 years and it looked like new.

But times and tastes change and I wanted something more modern or at least "different".

Trust me, nothing you do to that "country style" set is going to satisfy you if your taste has changed. Bite the bullet and let it go. I sold my old set reasonably to someone that loved it as much as I did when it was new so I knew it went to a good home.

I then bought a new set that is just what I wanted at this point in my life. I don't go for the "sturdy, well made" (translated "really expensive") stuff anymore (I'm not talking about buying junk either, I got my new set at Ashley) because then you have it forever and get tired of it. If you take good care of whatever you buy it will last you for as long as you love it. Then, when you don't "love it" anymore you won't feel so bad to let it go.

Life is short, you deserve to have what makes you happy today!!

Edited: I work for a store that sells furniture wholesale and I update their catalogs. Believe me when I tell you that if you paint the "country" furniture black, it's going to look like black "country" furniture (I see hundreds of sets of black "country" furniture). Country is country is country. If you try to put modern stuff in, on and around your "country" stuff, it's going to scream "she's trying not to look country, but it's country with modern stuff". It won't go. I had country decorating in my home. My husband bought me a baby grand piano. When they bought it in and set it down amidst my "country" stuff, you could almost hear the piano saying "What's all this stuff?" I had to change my decor to go with the piano (much more sophistocated victorian). Modern stuff has clean lines and there is no way to make country stuff look modern.

I'll say it again, life is short, get what you really want and enjoy it.

What color should I paint my bedroom?

bedroom decor black furniture image

Unnamed

The decor is black furniture and some things with silver trimmings (clocks, handles, etc). The room is already a light blue so I want something different. Thanks!
Oh yeah, and im a boy

Answer
The furniture sounds beautiful. You could go with any color that is on your mind. You could do a deeper blue or just add richer colors to bedding, pillows, blanket throws, etc. Have fun!!! Roxanne

What are some cool and cheap ideas to make my childish bedroom look more like a 9th grader's?

RunnFast

I want to make it more mature. I'm 13. I wanted to paint it a really light blue and a cream color. I also wanted to have black furniture. Do you have any cheap ideas to makeover my bedroom? Maybe some furniture solutions or cool wall decor. I'm not into one color in particular and I don't want my room to have a theme. Keep it simple with little accents here and there. Thanks!

Answer
A poster is always a nice addition to any room. Weather it be of your favorite band, or something funny, it always makes a room a little extra cozy. You can get them at Spencer's for under $10, or if you go to posters.com, you'll find a more wider assortment but at a little more expensive price. (about $15 and up)
Also you should try re-arranging your furniture. Even if it's just placing your bed on the opposite side of your room and switching your dresser around, it makes it feel like an entirely new room.
And if you want some black furniture, you can get some chair/sofa covers and put it on your sitting paraphanalia.

Color Coordination with Black Furniture and Chrome Accents?

Nick D

I've got all black furniture in my bedroom/office, which chrome accents on little things such as door pulls and dresser drawers.

I just need to decide on a color scheme for the walls and other coordinating colors (such as bedding and wall decor).

Any ideas?

Answer
With all black furniture, I would pick a nuetral color leaning towards the white end of the spectrum, like a very light grey and put up lots of mirrors to bring out the chrome. Also for bedding, I would chose =something with a gray/black color scheme, with some red for punch.Red pillows perhaps
