Im going to be in grade eight and im moving into a new house. My bedroom will be themed black and white. Is there a color that would be a good accent for my themed ones? What are some decorating ideas, or things i could buy for it?

Answer
Black and white with an accent color is one of the easiest themes to pull off. What I usually suggest is black & white plus your favorite color (two or three shades of the color - maximum). If I were doing this for me, I'd pick teal or turquoise or a royal blue as those are my favorites :) and I'd go with a black & white patterned bedding - just NOT zebra print as I feel it has been done to death in recent years.

Pick black or white for your furniture or go for a dark wood.

Wall color could be a light to medium gray OR a light to medium shade of your third color. If you use gray for the walls, then use your third color for accent pieces like curtains, throws or pillows. If you use a darker shade of paint, then use mainly lighter shades of the same color for your accents with maybe one item the same shade as the paint. If you use a lighter shade of paint, then do the reverse.
Here's a nice turquoise/teal for instance:

Target is great for black & white bedding and they also have a great selection of black & white photo posters that are reasonably priced. With a black & white themed bedroom you can use black, white or silver toned frames for your posters/pictures. Depending upon the size you need, you may be able to obtain frames to fit your color scheme at your local dollar stores.

Hope this gives you some ideas to work with and helps you out.

I've faced the same problem recently, I trailed the internet for hours and didn't find anything either.

In the end I just came up with my own ideas:

I thought I could make some collages by using pictures out of magazines, clothes I like etc. and stick them onto some fancy wrapping paper (you can but individual sheets which are good quality and only cost about 80p!)

I printed off some of my favourite pictures of the computer of friends, and also things I thought were cool like the eiffel tower and the hollywood sign and laminated them. I pinned them up to cover part of one of my walls, and it looked really effective. Also, keep scraps of paper and tickets form concerts to add later, it looks really good when it all builds up! - A pin board might be handy for this - they only cost about £5 if you look around, maybe less!

I also thought of getting some beads and string, and making simple yet creative items: just thread the beads onto the string, as long or short as you want, and dangle them from the ceiling, make a set of door beads, hang them at the window, or even round the mirror; the possibitilities are endless! If you're stuck on how to hang them up, you can buy plastic hooks with a stick side, that come off easily if you ever get sick of them:

Posters are always good, but can look a bit boring by themselves. Buy some ready cut cardboard shapes like harts, stars and flowers from a local craft store or online, or do them yourself if you wanted, and stick them around with blue tack. At first I thought this would look too childish, but I tried it and it didn't, it's cheap too!

Try adding extra little accessories around the room, like a fluffy pillow, or a fun wall clock. Anything that takes your fancy!

Hope this helps!! (:

i'm moving into a new house soon and i've been thinking of using the ocean and beach theme to decorate my bedroom but i dont want a overly beach bum type of bedroom.i want to use shades of blue and green. i would like a fresh feel to the room because i live in country with a hot climate. any decorating ideas and ideas for paint and furniture?

Answer
I have the perfect paint color for you, it's called "Rainwashed" by Sherwin Williams. I wanted a look similar to your's in my bedroom. I too live in the country and wanted my room to have a feel that I'm on vacation with the ocean just outside my window. I painted all the woodwork white. Hung white sheers with white venetian blinds behind them and bought a beautiful white Matelasse' coverlet (there on sale at J C Penny right now, queen size only $44.99). You can ALWAYS get on-line coupon codes for J C Penny's as well just by googling. A few well placed pieces of coral and a few favorite seashells in a basket on the floor, a nicely framed (also white) favorite picture of the ocean and the room turned out to be everything I was looking for. Hope you have the same success. You can find that paint color at
