I'm a teen girl (16) and I'm kinda starting a princess theme in my room. And I don't want to end up looking like a six year olds room. What I mainly need help with is well... Okay I have a wall with a big mirror then I have a wal decor quote right above it that says "yes, you are the fairest of them all" have two glass squared shelves on either side of the mirror. I have yet to put anything inside yet because I can think or find something princess or fairy tale like to put in it that doesn't make it seem like a child's room. So what should i put in them to carry on my theme ? Thank you very much !
Answer
Be careful not to get too carried away with the theme, as with things that say 'princess' literally, that's where it gets little girlish. Instead, concentrate on how a fairytale princess room would look. Purple is a color of royalty, think dark purple bedding in a lush fabric like velour or a very soft microfiber, satiny drapes in dark purple, a large bejeweled mirror, a collection of small decorative mirrors all grouped together closely, crystal lamps and a crystal chandelier in place of your ceiling light, lots of satiny and velour/microfiber throw pillows on your bed in pink, a lacey 'canopy' over your bed, (it doesn't need to be a canopy bed, you can hng it like a swag from your ceiling, draping down the sides), a pink or ivory slipper chair, feather boa draped over something, and lots of sparkle. If purple isn't your favorite color,a wine color or burgandy would look royal as well. As for your square boxes, think bejeweled, a tiara, large diamond-like necklace, or other sparkly accessories. And what princess doesn't have a bejeweled jewelry box in her princess room? Add a lush area rug for your tootsies and your set. Pier 1 is a great place to find a lot of these things. Or get to a craft store and bejewel what you already have. Sounds wonderful.

So my room isn't the biggest, but it has high ceilings and a big window! Im a 17 year old girl and im very girly, but I dont know what colors i could use that would be girly but also not childish.. I want a more mature room but i still want it to be young and pretty! Right now two of my walls are dark purple and the other two are light purple! I was thinking of doing peach and pink, but idk! I dont like greens really! so please give me and ideas for color schemes!
Answer
Pick your bedding well before your paint colors.
Peach and pink a very little girl.
At 17, you most likely will move out soon so you want to keep the room as neutral as possible.
All white or white bedding with gray or taupe walls will give you that Feminine look you love so much.
Make sure you have enough lighting and finish up with live green plants.The more simple it is, the better off the room will look :http://www.houzz.com/photos/bedroom/taupe-walls-
