Any ideas for adding color to a bedroom?

Dana

I bought this black and white comforter set recently for my bedroom. I just realized that I have a white rug that was going in the bedroom as well. The walls are also white and I can't paint. Do you have any ideas on bringing some color into the room?

This is a picture of the comforter. It's double sided.

Answer
You can break up the color by adding colorful vases with bright flowers (either real or fake) and setting them everywhere. Take the color that you used for the vase and get throw pillows of the same color. You could also add wall paintings or decorative items with that theme color.

It will end up pretty unique since it will be a very white and black room with a shot of color!

Good luck (:

I need ideas for coffee tables?

MariChelit

I'm getting ready to move into our first home and I really want to give my house personality. We have a great color scheme picked out throughout the house already, and I already have a living room set. What I want now is ideas for DIY end tables and a coffee table. I want something with personality, character. i dont want to spend $200 on standard tables that are made by the hundreds. I want something unique.

Our living room will be an eggshell/toupe color

with one accent wall in a chocolate color with a wall stencil design throughout.

our sofa set is a chocolate brown color with pillow backs kind of like the one in this picture:

besides the living room set that we already own and the colors that we picked for the living room, we dont have any other design element or idea for the living room so for the coffee tables and side tables anything goes.

Give me any all ideas you may have for DIY coffee tables and end tables. I'm willing to make my own, redesign something found at a thrift shop or garage sale, anything. But I'm having a creativity block and I cant think up any ideas.

-- Your color choices are beautiful and your soft set looks comfortable! Well done. I definitely admire your desire to have something unique because it's an opportunity to show your creativeness and have something that's a conversation piece!
