Trying to re-create this bedroom...but need cheaper alternatives?

Anna

This is the bedroom I want to create once my family moves:
http://www.pbteen.com/gift/thm/thmgrl/thmgrlnou/

Obviously I know the floors won't be black. And trying to find an alternative for the comforter will be horrible, so I'm probably going to buy the one featured there. I would, however, like an alternative for the black dottie sheets, sham, and the fluffy white quilt. I mean, they're pretty easy pieces to trade out.

I have an iron bed frame that we're going to re-do into a white iron bed frame. I just would like something cheaper because our family isn't made of money!
Oh, and I would like the rug - the black one with the white dots - in a cheaper alternative! Thank you guys so much and I am searching like a madman as well.

This is the best one I've found so far, but I think you can only get it online.. It's a 4-piece set for $177.49, and all you would have to do is buy white bed sheets to match! http://www.sweetpeachesbedding.com/ensemble-p24605-c1242.html

Need help with bedroom design!?

Southern B

Im 19 and im moving back in with my parents to go to a school closer to home, since i last painted my bedroom when i was 14 its a hot pink and im ready for something more mature. I can't seem to find any bedroom design pictures for girls my age. I don't want something bright and "teen'ish" im older now so i want something sophisticated yet still young. Can anybody help with paint ideas or even pictures would be great!

Where can i find teen bedroom accessories?

Q. Good websites to find comforters, night stands, dressers, desks, vanity, lounge chairs, throw pillows, blankets, rungs, lamps, string lights, wall decorations, storage, picture frames, mirrors, decorative cork boards and magnetic dry erase boards, desk accessories? I want to do a zebra and hot pink theme and Im trying to find accessories to match.. Please help! I've already looked at PBteen.com and wakeupfrankie.com, but they're a little pricey... Any othe websites?

Answer
I'm assuming you've already bought bedding, if not, maybe something like this:

http://www.beyond-bedding.com/hot-pink-zebra-print-full-queen-teens-kids-bedding-set.html

For furniture, try ikea.com - it will be inexpensive and you'll be able to get the night stands, dressers, and desks there. I'd go with either white or black furniture to complement the bedding.
You can also try walmart and target if you are concerned with price.

Wall decorations- The bedding set shows wall hangings which can be purchased at the same site as the bedding (beyond-bedding). In addition, you can buy decorative throw pillows, windows treatments, Funky Zebra Fabric Memory/Memo Photo Bulletin Board, and even lamp shades

Frames - Buy these anywhere. You can get these very cheaply. I'd suggest a $1 can of spray paint so you can change the color of the frames for a customized look (I'd spray a few black, a few white and perhaps a few hot pink - though you could easily paint a zebra design - cheap and easy)

Mirrors - Again, buy the cheapest mirror you can find and custom paint it (Walmart or other discount store). If you must have a zebra print mirror, check this one out:

http://www.google.com/products/catalog?q=zebra+mirror&rls=com.microsoft:en-us&oe=UTF-8&startIndex=&startPage=1&um=1&ie=UTF-8&cid=8249285435254738615&ei=pIckTc7QL8T48Aayo8CGAg&sa=X&oi=product_catalog_result&ct=result&resnum=4&ved=0CDgQ8wIwAw#


Rug - Walmart has several different style choices. Like this one:
http://www.walmart.com/ip/Home-Dynamix-Zone-7160-Zebra-Print-Rug/12087183?findingMethod=rr

Blanket/Throw: Again, walmart has a cheap solution that comes in several colors

http://www.walmart.com/search/search-ng.do?search_query=zebra+throw&ic=48_0&Find=Find&search_constraint=4044

As far as accessorizing goes, keep in mind that a little zebra goes a long way. If you have zebra print bedding, you may want to consider solids for the lounge chair and/or throw and accent pillows. I'd pick up a lot of solids for accessories (black or white vase maybe with hot pink flowers) again, solid colored picture frames. Walmart also sells cork boards. You can paint these or cover them in a zebra fabric (or complementary fabric) and embellish it with grosgrain hot pink ribbon.

Please remember that a cheap can of spray paint can help you achieve the look you are after. Best of Luck.
