Making as in building or customizing?
We just moved into our new house about a year ago, and I'm finally getting to paint my walls 8D I'm an earth girl at heart and I LOVE greens, blues, slate greys, etc., so here's what we're doing for my room, if it gives you any inspiration. This color green! http://i.ehow.co.uk/images/a06/ki/29....1-800X800.jpg One accent wall is going to have a big tree graphic on it in black. The rest of the walls are going to be... *drumroll* CHALKBOARD paint! Mom got the okay and is planning to order the slate to do it and everything! I can't wait to be able to scribble and draw all over my walls. <3 You can see how it's done / how to do it here. :D |
well.. im customizing it and yes i have got some inspiration from you :) im sure that your room will be so fantastique! thanks alot

I love chalkboard paint. My room is a forest [aka slytherin ;)] green. The accent wall was supposed to be black chalkboard paint...but that fell though. Green looks great on a bedroom wall. I would also suggest purple if you want something unique. If you're going with any earth tones, I would also suggest wicker furniture! It meshes so nicely. >3 |

I have my bedroom an off white colour right now. I started painting a coral reef behind my door but need to finish it still. My room was supposed to be music themed at first but I changed it to being ocean themed. I also plan on painting all of my walls with some kind of underwater theme eventually.
|
So many people with green rooms. My room is a bright ocean blue with a dark blue carpet and white furniture and doors. I think it's really pretty, because I like blue...lots. I still need to put up my posters again, because at the moment my walls are bare and it makes me sad. ;O;
However, before I could offer any decorating advice I'd need to know the general size of your room, darker colours suck out light and generally make things look smaller, so if you have a cupboard-sized room light colours would probably be better, but in a large room you can go mad with dark colours and still have the size. :3 |
My room is green too. ): Psh. I wanted to paint it grey but my mother has something against grey-to-black colours. So if I didn't pick any other colour she was going to paint it pink. HOW DARE SHE. Pink, of all colours! So I said green, though it's very clear, it almost looks white. Eh.
I also bought paint a few years ago and drew gigantic flowers on my bedroom wall. I recommend it, it's awesome and gives it a personal touch, you know? I advise painting the room with two complementary colours, it always looks lovely. (: |
Ooh, greys are actually great for bedrooms! They're so peaceful c: Could you convince her into a blue-grey? That's one of my favorite shades for bedrooms.
|
I would love to, but my mother's stubborn as everything. She must think I'm emo, anything black won't fly with her (not even my finger nails ): ).

@Raz: I was going to paint my room a dark purple colour at first and didn't just because my house is so tiny to begin with. XD I think it would make me feel claustrophobic if I did. XD Each unit in the duplex I own is under 1000 square feet and the one I live in is the biggest at 950 Sq ft and it has three bedrooms so you can only imagine how tiny they are. XD
I'm going to stick to a lighter blue for the "water" colour when I get around to painting the actual water on my walls. |
I'd like to redo mine this summer, too. I've discovered that it's really difficult to find bedspreads and such if you want to do a more creative or unusual theme, though, even on the Internet... or maybe I've just been looking in the wrong places. >.>
My original idea was to do sort of a purple and silver moon-and-stars type theme, with everything in those colors, but it seems that purple is really difficult to find, which is quite a disappointment since it's my favorite color. I've also thought about doing a flowered theme and decorating with darker pink roses on the bedspread and curtains and such and painting the walls a light green, but I'm uncertain about that. Now I'm thinking maybe a more nature-ish theme in general, though. I'd definitely like to have more plants and stuff like that either way. |

Wow that is tiny! xD My last bedroom was unbelievably small, like I could -just- squeeze in a single bed and a dresser, and that was it. That was painted a really bright, but dark purple and actually felt like I was living in a box. xD Definitely not advisable. Lilac would have been nice though. :3 I think the water theme would look awesome. Will you be adding sea life art as well? |
Yep, started on some of it already. I have part of a coral reef behind my door. I just need to figure something to go on the big wall and behind my bed. XD
|
Ooh pretty. :3 Are you doing it in colour, or like a silhouette reef? I wouldn't mind painting a mural on my walls, just to brighten it up a little. But with the posters and pictures and other various do-das that I have, it doesn't seem likely to happen. xDD
|
Right now, it's just outlined. I plan on painting it in colour though. I just need to get the paint and actually colour it. XD I had the same problem with posters and the like. I stil have them hanging up on the other side of my room where I haven't painted anything yet. I have to move them to my office still. XD
|
I one day want a white and purple room, with white walls and a huge purple mural painted on the longest wall, with a purple spiral stencil type thing going round the other walls. It's my dream room. <3
Your sea room does sound lovely. Can I be nosy enough to ask if you'd be willing to show pictures of your painting when it's done? :3 |
Yep, when I get it done I'll post pics! It'll probably be a while though. XD
|
Yay~ I can't wait to see the finished porduct! :3 Haha, that's fine, decorating takes its time <3
