Im going to be in grade eight and im moving into a new house. My bedroom will be themed black and white. Is there a color that would be a good accent for my themed ones? What are some decorating ideas, or things i could buy for it?

Answer
Black and white with an accent color is one of the easiest themes to pull off. What I usually suggest is black & white plus your favorite color (two or three shades of the color - maximum). If I were doing this for me, I'd pick teal or turquoise or a royal blue as those are my favorites :) and I'd go with a black & white patterned bedding - just NOT zebra print as I feel it has been done to death in recent years.

Pick black or white for your furniture or go for a dark wood.

Wall color could be a light to medium gray OR a light to medium shade of your third color. If you use gray for the walls, then use your third color for accent pieces like curtains, throws or pillows. If you use a darker shade of paint, then use mainly lighter shades of the same color for your accents with maybe one item the same shade as the paint. If you use a lighter shade of paint, then do the reverse.
Here's a nice turquoise/teal for instance:

Target is great for black & white bedding and they also have a great selection of black & white photo posters that are reasonably priced. With a black & white themed bedroom you can use black, white or silver toned frames for your posters/pictures. Depending upon the size you need, you may be able to obtain frames to fit your color scheme at your local dollar stores.

Hope this gives you some ideas to work with and helps you out.

How much is a custom room painter?

For my bedroom, i'm set on the idea of one wall being Zebra print. I've begged my mother to let me do this for years, and she's finally said yes. I was willing to paint it myself, but now that i've thought about it it's just too hard of a job. Would this be a really expensive task?

Answer
Expensive? Yep, though it depends on your standards, I guess.

It's going to run you at least $20/hr [maybe 40], and if it's a very big wall, could take 2 days or more.

Why not paint it white, then 'draw' the stripes using blue masking tape. You can peel it off and reposition it until you get it right, and you aren't committed to anything until you have a good idea what it will look like.
