For my 13th birthday my dad is letting me redo my bedroom. I love music and I play the guitar so I want to do a music themed room. I have almost black furniture with silver hardware. There isn't a set limit but it can't be too expensive. Any decorating ideas would be greatly appreciated. P.S. I'm a girl.

Q. hi! i am in desperete need of some help with my paint color for my bedroom. i have a white comforter that has an "ash" grey border on the outside from restoration hardware http://www.restorationhardware.com/rh/catalog/product/product.jsp?productId=prod250023&navCount=2

I love your ideas of grey walls.
The bedding set is amazing.The lavender goes so well with the grey and white.

Look for mirrored accessories such as a vanity tray and actual mirrors.

My grandma gave me a brand new bedroom set for my daughter. However it's blue. How can I change the color?

Q. Its a wood set. I was wondering if it could be either painted or spray painted. I want the most easiest, decent, way to change the color. And tips?

Answer
Changing the color of a bedroom set is one of the easiest and most cost-efficient ways to completely redo the look and image. You'll be amazed at the results! And before I forget, the second easiest and most cost-efficient way to redo the set is to change the hardware, if there is any. It's amazing what contemporary pull knobs in brushed stainless will do for even colonial looking furniture...once it's painted, of course. So back to that.

The first thing you need to do is prepare the furniture so that when you do put your paint on, it won't eventually peel or flake off. So clean the furniture well. Use TSP which you can find at your local hardware store. I suggest you use the liquid kind as opposed to the powder, which not only will you have to measure, mix and rinse, but it's toxic. The liquid is biodegradable, it's easier to mix and you don't have to rinse it.

Once all dirt, grease and grime are removed and the wood has dried, you'll need to prepare it according to it's surface. Lightly sand the wood with a fine grain paper, just enough to make it easier for the following products to adhere.

You'll want to prime the surface. I suggest you use an oil-based primer, since
a) the wood of the bedroom set is most likely protected with an oil-based varnish and
b) ANYTHING sticks to oil-based primer.

I really like either Kilz or Bullseye 1-2-3. These are primer paints that are even used to get rid of graffiti and will make a perfect canvas for your new paint color, allowing an even covering and a professional looking finish.

Now comes the fun part! You've chosen your paint color. Do you use spray paint, or brush it on??? You get to decide: It's certainly much more work to spray paint furniture, because you have to protect the surrounding area and do the work in a well-ventilated area. And you have to have patience. When they say on the instructions that 2 or more light coats are better than one thick one, THEY ARE TELLING THE ABSOLUTE TRUTH! Unless you don't care about leaks and drips... So if you don't have the patience to do 2 or 3 or maybe even 4 thin coats, don't go there. Drips are horrendous and will make you hate the furniture. But it's important to know that spray painting is how furniture makers paint their furniture. It really does give the nicest professional finish. I usually opt for spray painting in about 80-85% of the time when talking about repainting furniture and decorative objects.

If you want to get it done with with less preparation fuss, you'll want to use a roller or a paint brush... sponge brush & roller if you're using oil paint, and bristle and normal roller for latex paint. If you do use latex, either make it a washable latex finish or also plan on applying a sealer (latex also, available in finishes from mat all the way up to high gloss). But keep in mind that if you aren't careful - especially in nooks and crannies - you'll still get leaks and drips. Just in case you're curious, I'll opt for spray painting about 80% of the time...

Have you thought of the color you want to paint? What is your daughter's room like now, or are you planning on changing the whole scheme and or theme of the room? What kind of a feel do you want the furniture to have: zen, princess, tomboy, laura ashley, etc.) If you're interested, please feel free to email me and I'll give you a few more ideas and tips.

Whatever you decide, remember that paint is THE QUICKEST, FASTEST, MOST COST-EFFICIENT WAY to revamp anything... or almost... And keep in mind, if you do make a mistake, you can fix it again!

Re-Decorating a bedroom?

jemano3489

ok so im re-doing my bedroom.
I have sheets like these
http://www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/Regency-300-Thread-Count-Woven-Stripe-Sheet-Set/3304445/product.html
like with the stripes ya know?
Anyway...I am now shopping for drapes. So should I get drapes with the same stripped pattern or just a solid color the same as the sheet?

Also I have golden hardware on my dressers (like the pulls). So does that mean I should get a golden/brown curtain rod also?

Thanks!

Answer
You should match the hardware in the room, but since the sheets have such a subtle pattern, there's no need to match it. You didn't say anything about your comforter or the sheet color, so that makes it more difficult to give suggestions. You could get another kind of a tone on tone pattern like your sheets, but it doesn't need to be the same pattern. If you're not adding color to the room with your bedding, try adding color with the curtains, even if it's just a very soft color, like sage green.

Does Rooms to Go delivery set up everything for you when they deliver it ?

Mr.Heartle

I plan on purchasing a bedroom set and I wanted to know if they set it up for me or just deliver..

Answer
Well it all depends on the delivery crew you get. I often have to go out on service calls for retailers because the drivers were in too much of a hurry to spend an extra 5-10 minutes tightening something or setting something up. The other problem that is common is that the delivery team will deliver the furniture but not have all the necessary hardware (screws, bolts, etc) to complete the assembly and then you end up waiting for parts to be sent and then have the furniture assembled. With a bedroom set it is common to be missing mirror brackets if you have a dresser that is supposed to have the mirror sitting on the dresser itself.

Hopefully you will not have any issues but just be aware that it is more uncommon now to NOT have any issues from delivery of furniture no matter whom you buy it from.

Websites for bedroom furniture?

rainy show

I want new bedroom furniture. I like dark colors, modern, simple, teenager style, and comfortable. Do you know any websites where they might sell furniture like this. It doesn't have to be everything I listed, but pretty close. I'd also like it if the website had a desk that matches the bedroom set. Nothing too pricey (under $2,500) and pretty good quality. Thank You!

Also, if you know a website where I can find accessories (lamps, sheets, ect.), then pleas list! Thanks again.

Answer
There are lots of websites with lots of product. The problem is the price doesn't always match the quality. If you plan on only keeping your furniture for 1 to 5 years and treat your furniture with kid gloves Ikea may be a good choice, however, ask anyone that has had Ikea furniture for a while or attempted to move it. It tends to auto destruct upon moving. Those cam lock type assembly hardware just don't like to be moved. What makes it fairly inexpensive is what makes it poor quality. The whole thing is about freight and warehouse space. This should NOT YOUR PROBLEM. In my humble opinion, virtually all assemble yourself furniture is inferior quality mostly made of particleboard filled with formaldehyde. My family and I have been in the furniture business both manufacturing and retailing for over 60 years. Our retail store went on line almost 20 years ago. I understand both manufacturing and retailing. I sell what I make every day of the week in my store. Consider checking out a local store with less than 5 to 10 stores. in my experience the larger the chain, the poorer the quality and service. Also, in this difficult housing market, many both large and small stores are struggling and over 20,000 retail furniture stores both large and small have gone out of in business in the last 18 months. PAY BY CREDIT CARD for a little protection. I have noticed fairly good quality furniture in Costco. In the STORE not on line. It is very seasonal for them and the selection is very limited but well priced and good quality. Also please check out our website and blog @ www.barnfurniture.com

How can I fix a wobbly bed-frame (sleigh-bed style)?

I recently purchased a used bedroom set, and it is all fine except for that the bedframe is slightly wobbly. This is due to the screw being loose that is holding the mounting hardware at the end of the side board. The screw is on a metal bracket type deal that uses hooks to attach itself to the input area of the headboard. I would assume just using a longer screw to hold in the metal piece might work, but maybe there is a better way? Please let me know if you have any better ideas on how this could work.

Answer
try adding a new screw or tightening the one thats loose
