Not like flower hippie stuff, kind of like the Outsiders and stuff.

Answer
Have you tried looking at Polyvore designs? Here are a few I found, hope they're not too hippie for your taste:

Ideas for decorating my bedroom?

Loser

Hey! So it's the holidays and I was thinking about taking a day or so to redecorate and design my room.
I'm into 70s and 80s hard rock/metal - Iron Maiden, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, etc and I'm also a fan of the 60's hippie era so so any ideas for a 70s/80s music theme or a 60s boho/hippie theme would be great. I'm allowed to do anything to my room except paint it so yeah.
Any ideas?
Also if it helps, my room is quite small so I can't bring in huge items of furniture unfortunately..
Thanks in advance :)

Why is there condensation on my walls?

ChoobiesMo

I noticed there seems to be condensation on my bedroom walls where there is an exterior wall on the other side. Most of the condensation appears near beds where the bed touches the wall. It's an older house built in the 60s, and there is no wall insulation. Can anybody explain this, and tell me whether this is a problem?

Answer
you need to insulate your walls. When you have an outside wall that is freezing cold, and you have warm air inside, the warm air condensates on the cold wall. It is like if you have a glass of cold water and you set it outside in the heat, what happens? The glass will start dripping water. This is what is happening on your walls. If you have a styrofoam cup of cold water and you set it in the heat, what happens? Nothing because it is insulated from the heat. Insulate your walls is the only thing that will rid you of this problem.

What are some good themes for a room?

Daniel-bry

I am redoing my room and need ideas on what i could possibly do. i am 16. i am an artist. i do not like sports so please don't say a sports theme. i would like something that looks cool and chill. i was thinking about like a 60s theme or splatter painting the wall. but i don't think the splatter painting would look so good. what do you think?

Answer
The problem with splatter paint is that when you want to repaint you have to scrap off all the splatter paint. It is a lot of work and not really worth it IMO.

I want to do a French cafe theme in my bedroom. Any ideas?

Manda

It sounds really nice, but I don't know where to start.

Answer
i don't know -- are you old enough to drink wine? i think a french thing would be good enough -- you can get lots of vintage "shabby chic" french inspired furniture -- it would look kind of like this --

ideally for the real 60s french look you paint the walls light blue and all your furniture is white. if you have white trim on the walls that is even better. just doing random word searches on ebay will turn up the most amazing things.

What's the 1967 scary comic about the "killer arm" that snakes out of the sewers nightly to stalk kids?

60s bedroom set image

bubba w

Yeah, there is a horror comic book called Creepy Tales, I believe, that included a wicked story in the late '60s about a demonic hand that pops out of the sewers and crushes kids it snatches from their bedrooms. Horrible, I know, but that story has excellent, eerie artwork, and I would like to find it before Halloween. The hero of the story is a teen-ager who sets out in search of the monster that killed his little brother some years ago. He spots it one night, snaking in and out of apartment building windows, searching for prey. The boy is almost grabbed from behind by the fiendish snake-like claw, but a team of crimefighters shows up at the ultimate moment to shoot the beast to death. This story is located online somewhere, because I read it on a website in its entirety two years ago. The site was devoted to comic books of the past. If you can help, I would greatly appreciate any clues where to find it.

Answer
In 1967, there was no comic book titled 'Creepy Tales' but James Warren of Warren Magazines published a black and white anthology magazine titled 'Creepy' which featured horror stories in strip format. By doing a google search, I've found a couple of websites dedicated to Creepy and some of Warren's other magazines, but I wasn't able to find any websites that contained complete stories from any of the issues of 'Creepy', 'Eerie' or 'Vampirella'. Chances are someone posted scans of the story to some website devoted to horror comics or possibly just to comics. I only know a few websites that present comics scans and a quick check of those failed to find such a story. Chances are the story was posted for a few months and then was rotated out so another story could be featured.

Sorry I can't point you a link that would take you to the story scans, but if you go to a comics shop and ask about back issues of 'Creepy' there is a slim chance you might find the issue that contained the story. 'Creepy' lasted for 19 years and sold well enough that back issues are available, although not plentiful. The good news is that if you can find the issue in question, the book shouldn't be very expensive since the black and white comics magazines never seem to achieve the same kind of inflated value that most comic books from the sixties and early seventies have.

Good luck trying to find the story.

Anybody remember Valley of the Dolls?

aschrodt@y

What's it about? I think I seen it once but I was real little, is it the movie where they are brushing their hair in the bedroom then a whole bunch of mice are all on the floor? If it's not that movie, then what is that movie!? I was gonna rent it at Family Video but they didn't have it.

Answer
Its awesome! Its about 3 women in the entertainment business in the mid 60s. Patty Duke is the lead who gets addicted to prescription pills that she calls dolls. It has the best fashion, hair, makeup, and sets. Sharon Tate was in it as well, she was murdred by Charles Manson soon after the movie.

No mice on the floor though, don't know what that movie was. Susperia?
