I already have a chocolate brown suede duvet cover and shams, and I would like the room to have an 'enchanted forest' feel without being childish; I want it to have a more romantic feel. I want it to look woodsy I suppose, so what colour furniture, sheets, walls, etc do you recommend? Also, what other room accessories could I get to attribute to this theme?
Thanks!
any links or pictures would be very helpful too!
Answer
Sage or a mossy kind of green on the walls.
A canopy bed with sheer material draped from post to post.

Stick to dark woods for the furniture and black or brown metal for the canopy bed.
Layer your curtains, starting with white or cream sheers (which should ideally match the color of the bed curtains). You can use a taupe/beige from the drapes and go for something that has a bit of a pattern to it in either black or gold.

Sheets can be any of the following colors: White, cream, tan, sage or chocolate brown again. All would go well with your duvet.

* I know that this one is a bit expensive, but I want you to pay attention to the ornate shape. Check out your local thrift, used furniture, resale and consignment shops. A lot of times, you can find similar items for less.
Finish off with 3 candles in frosted white cups (look at Ikea) on a mirrored tray (Target has one - check it out) on top of your dresser. For small pops of color, think golds, reds, orange - the colors of fall.
Hope this helps and I really hope your room turns out great!

Answer
Please find enclosed a home study simulator course for those of you who hunger for the romance and adventure of being an airline pilot. If you follow all the steps in this course you will experience the 'Romance and Adventure' of said profession
1] Stay up all day and do not go to bed
2] Sit in your most uncomfortable chair, preferably inside a closet, for 9 or 10 hours while you face a 4 foot wide panoramic photo of a flight deck
3] Have two to four noisy vacuum cleaners on high, out of sight but within hearing distance and operating throughout the night. If a vacuum cleaner fails, do the appropriate emergency restart checklist.
4] Halfway through your nocturnal simulator course, arrange for a bright spotlight to shine directly into your face for two or three hours, simulating flying eastbound into the sunrise
5] Have bland overcooked food served on a tray halfway through the night
6] Have cold cups of coffee delivered from time to time, and ask the "flight attendant" to slam the "cockpit door" frequently
7] At the times when you must heed nature's call, force yourself to stand outside the bathroom door for at least ten minutes, transferring your weight from leg to leg, to ease the discomfort. This simulates the wait for the passenger that made it in just ahead of you. Don't forget to wear your hat and smile.
8] Leave the "cockpit" after the prescribed nine or ten hours. Go outside and turn on your lawn sprinklers and then stand out in the cold and "rain", for twenty minutes, simulating the wait for the crew shuttle to the motel.
9] You may now head for your bedroom, soaking wet with your suitcase and flight bag in hand. Stand outside the door for 15 minutes, simulating the wait while the maid makes up your hotel room bed
10] If anyone inquires what you have been doing up all night, just say, 'Simulating the allure of all night airline flying to romantic international destinations', then go collapse into bed.
11] If you are a realist, do this two nights in a row to complete your round trip.
12) Try to enjoy it.
