I want to redo my bedroom and i want to paint the walls and buy new sheets and curtains and every thing else . I already have a bed and a dresser so i dont need new furniture.

Answer
First set your budget. Then work out what you can do within that budget. Either how much you have to spend, or how much your parents are willing to let you spend. Figure out what you have to buy new, and what you can find at thrift stores and garage sales. Know exactly the look you want, and don't buy anything that doesn't help make that happen. Sheets can cost $50 each, or you can go to Bi-Mart or to Ross's Dress For Less and get a whole set for half that price. Be willing to work at it, and you can do a lot for not all that much. Be careful with paint, though. Cheap paint really isn't because you are likely to end up putting on 2 coats so it doesn't look streaky. Spend the money and buy paint guaranteed 1-coat.

I need to re-decorate my room....badly. I have no idea where to get some teenage stuff for my bedroom. It can't be to expensive. My budget is 2000$ I mean like redecorating as in a new head-board, new chandelire,new everything.

Answer
Well start off by figuring out what you have in mind. Any certain theme? Colors? You have a pretty nice budget to work with so you can really do whatever you want.
First comes your bed. I dont know your area but Im sure that your parents know the local furniture shops and can help you find a nice deal on the bed frame/headboard that you like. Once you get that figured out, find out what bed set youd like. This can go along with any theme that you have in mind or just be based off of your favorite color or colors. Once you have found the perfect bed set, its time to move on.
Are you painting your room? If so, get that done before you put any of your new things in there. Go for a crisp white room or a shade or tint of your favorite color, which would match with your new bed set.
Now youve got freshly painted walls and an emtpy room. Put your new bed in first, wherever you want, personally I think beds look best centered on one wall with matching end tables on each side. On these end tables you could get a funky lamp and a new alarm clock. Places like walmart or target have really cute things like that.

Next comes the floor. Do you have carpet in there already? If you do, or even if you have wood floors, theres no need to get a new carpet in there. Its unnessecary and expensive as all hell. Just go with a nice area rug that matches your room. You can find these anywhere in your area, again, your parents would know where to look for this.

Now work on entertainment. Would you like a t.v.? A dvd player? A nice radio? Pick those things up and get a nice entertainment center. That way it will hold all of your electronics and also your cds, dvds, video games, ect. It will be neat and organized and all in one place.

Now work on your closet. Maybe pick up a new dresser or cute storage bins for your clothes. Try to keep things like that all in one area, like your clothes, shoes, makeup, jewlery. This way you have one specified area to get ready in, instead of running all around your room in the morning.

Maybe you could invest in a nice futon or a loveseat for your room, for when you have a friend over or when you just dont feel like laying in bed.

Now to top it all off, buy some nice picture frames and maybe posters, just some nice simple things to decorate your bare walls.


Youve got a brand new room. Just remember to have fun with it!
