Answer
You're right, a bedroom should be all of those things! I'm a teenage girl too and I'm currently in the middle of decorating my bedroom! I've got some ideas for you here but just to give you a few ideas I'm doing my bedroom with purple, pink, and lime green. I've painted the wall behind my bed a really nice purple colour and I have a gorgeous purple, pink, and green bedding set. I'm gonna buy some cute lamps and a rug for my room and then I think I'll be done! Here are some ideas for your room:
First off, get a theme or colour scheme. For example, you could decorate your room in a shabby-chic style or maybe a more glamorous movie-star theme! It's up to You! If you don't want a theme then just get a colour scheme. Say, bright candy-apple green and lollipop pink! This can look AMAZING! This is a website with lots of different themes. Just click on the themes in the top left-hand corner for inspiration!

Move around your furniture if you think it will look better with, say, the bed under the window and your desk near the door.Now buy your bedding, paint, and curtains, as these can really change a room! Buy bedding that either matches your paint or is in a coordinating colour. Look at these websites or Google around for ideas and pictures!

You colud paint all your walls, just one accent wall behind the bed, (This is what I did in my room! :D ) or you could do stripes or wallpaper! It's up to you!

Once you've got your basics, do the really fun part. Shopping! Bring a friend if you like and go to lots of different shops. Try to look out for...
Beanbags,
Floor cushions,
Mirrors,
Wall Art,
Cute Furniture like trunks that you can store stuff in!
Lamps,
A cool headboard,
An area or accent rug (This is quite important!)
And stuff like that.

I think that's a great idea to do signs around the place! There are different ways you could do this:
*If you're creative, You could use blackboard paint and either paint maybe a whole wall of it or just a section, maybe in a cool heart or star shape! Then you can write and draw and scribble all over it as much as you like! The best part is, it'll be super-easy to put up a new word or phrase whenever you want to!
*You could also just paint, write or stencil directly onto the wall with whatever words you like. How about writing someting like "Freindship" or "Love" above your bed or window?! Ask your parents first though!
*If you don't want to do any of these, you can buy wooden letters from a craft shop and decorate them any way you want, then either attach them to the wall with glue, arranch them on a shelf, or hang them from the ceiling with pretty ribbons!

You can also display medals & trophies you've won, framed school papers, photos and general treasures to personalise your room. Have fun and enjoy it and if you're girlie, don't forget Fairy Lights!

How much would it take to build doll furniture?

bedroom set girls room image

Sir Walter

I am thinking of attempting to build like a bedroom and living room sets for 18 in. American Girl dolls to go in the top floor of,treehouse wich i am giving a transromation after cleaning it up. How long would it take to build the bedroom and leving room sets and what wood should i use???? How much $ would,it cost to buy wood and all the other stuff needed for building? What is the best wood for doll furniture . I have made doll bed and dresser before. The dresser turned out ok but the doll bed broke.
highly expenive an real looking.

Answer
"Doll furniture" can be easy and quick to make or more complex and take longer to make if highly realistic. Don't know which one you want. You also don't say the style of furniture you want to make though perhaps American Doll is associated with one style and I'm just unfamiliar with AD.

If you want to use wood, there would still be great differences in the resulting furniture items, realism, etc, depending on your skill and intentions, quality of the wood, type of paint/finish, degree of realism, etc.

There are lots of sites online and books at the library or book store that deal with making doll furniture from wood though:

Do you think I can rebuild my toyota camry transmission?

CrownJewel

I am not a get down and dirty type of girl by far. I have always called my husband in the room to kill a spider, but we have experienced many financial hardships over the past year and I have humbled myself and done lots of things I use to wouldn't dare. Such as picking up trash restoring it and making an awesome new restored bedroom set. Cleaning out a gross fridge in order to buy it at a steal of a price and save hundreds of dollars. Our car gave out on us a few days ago I had a mechanic come look at it and he's certain its the transmission. We can't afford the transmission let alone the labor. We have 3 girls Christmas is around the corner and we live in a city where we moved for strictly work purposes therefore have no family or friends. Needless to say we NEED this car. It's not really my preference to get my hands dirty but I WILL and CAN because I'm a smart girl and research and comprehension is second nature for me. Even as I state this if I am honest I think what might hinder me in this instance is I AM NOT GOOD AT LEARNING VIA WRITTEN DIRECTIONS. I CANT READ MAPS AND I HATE HOW TO MANUALS when it comes to things that have lots of small nuts and bolts and parts. I get confused easily and frustrated because I feel as though I don't understand. NOW ON THE OTHER HAND. I learn Quickly from listening and seeing and asking questions. I am the type of individual that no I dont know what the map says but I can navigate myself almost from anywhere as long as I know which direction I am heading. NO I CANT READ and put together my daughters canopy bed from that booklet but I can look at the parts on the bed and figure out where they go and what keeps them together in no time. If I read a how to manual there might be wording that confuses me but if I watch and listen to you put it together if something confuses me I am a great communicator and can ask a very specific question to gather an understanding. So I am not entirely helpless. Do you think never have working on a car in my life I can remove a transmission and rebuild it on my 2002 6 cylinder transmission or would I be able to follow instructions via skype from a mechanic?

Answer
First, you being a girl has nothing to do with whether you could handle rebuilding a transmission. That being said, there's a reason why people go to special schools to learn how to rebuild them is because there are so many different types and they are very complex machines.

OK, they're just gears and clutches. Granted. But if you don't get tolerances right, seals in proper order, clutch packs and bands tensioned properly, you're just turning the transmission into even more garbage.

Plus, you need a uniquely specific set of tools. By the time you buy the tools alone AND the parts to rebuild your transmission you've already spent more than what it would cost to buy a used transmission and install it.

Installing a transmission is fairly straight forward. And if you are savvy enough to look at a thing and understand how it comes apart and goes together then someone with a little knowledge could probably guide you through the process.

Finding a mechanic who would be willing to spend hours on skype with you while you do the work - well, Grandma has a better chance of being run over by a reindeer.

Since watching is your strong point, try searching on YouTube for videos that show the basics of how to remove and install a transmission. Then look to see if you can find a video on how to rebuild a transmission. You will notice the vast array of special tools you probably don't yet have. And getting them will not be cheap. So I think the best bet for you is to buy a used transmission from a junk yard, one with at least a 30 day guarantee. That way if you get it home and it's junk, yeah, you have to do the job again, but at least you either get your money back OR another transmission for another attempt.

But front wheel drive transmissions are more difficult to remove because of the need to pull the axel's out. There again you may find yourself in need of specialized tools.

When one can't afford to have something fixed, often they have to go without. Since it is the holiday season, maybe you can find someone willing to part with an old car for real cheap. I've seen people buy a car for $25.00 and keep it going for years. Don't expect to buy a Lexus in top condition for $25.00. Not unless you can find Mr. Scrooge RIGHT AFTER his Phantasmic visitors finished with him.

Good luck.

Happy Holidays.

What are some colors that would go with a soft pink for a teenage girls room?

bedroom set girls room image

Kelly

My room is already painted a soft pink. I need different color/colors to go with it. I thought of pink and brown but I need more ideas. It would be awesome if you included a bed spread and matching decor. I will give a best answer. Thanks!

Answer
these are in order of difficluty:

The most classic design would be to use a light cream color for your accessories.. pink walls with cream colored drapes and bedspread. It would be calming and peaceful, great for a bedroom. You could liven it up a bit with texture and finish options. I assume the walls are eggshell so you could find a somewhat shiny bedroom set

A dark warm brown with a lot of red tint would also work but it would be a lot harder to find the color and it would be more difficult to accessorize.

If you wanted you could mix in that dark brown color and the cream color but keep the brown things small, like doing the pink and cream for everything and then brown pillow shams.

You could make more of a barbie style room if you found a purple with a lot of gray in it.

Another option would be to stick with the same color but find really bold versions of it.

~whatever you do you'll want to see the color in the room before you commit.

How can I decorate nursery for soon-to-have baby when six year old step-daughter shares the same room?

sgrjackson

I have six year old step-daughter, she lives with her mom so my husband and I only get her maybe two weekends a month. We have the second bedroom set up for her, but I am pregnant with our first child together and I don't know if we can quite afford a three bedroom home. How can I decorate this nursery? If we only get my husband's daughter once or twice a month, is it wrong to just leave her bed in there and her toys and go ahead and decorate the nursery for the baby as I want? I don't want to push her out or her to be jealous of the baby. What do you think? Any ideas?

Answer
Yikes, I frankly don't think there is any possible way the step-daughter won't be jealous and resentful having "her" room redecorated to accomodate the baby. Possibly listening to her input regarding color choices or theme could help. I think I'd set up a corner of my house with a desk that she helps choose and fill the desk with special craft materials that she helps to select. I'd make as big a deal out of setting up her desk as I would fixing up the nursery. I'd emphasize that the desk is only for big girls and babies can't get into it. Frankly, however, I think I'd move to a bigger place as soon as I could afford it. Good luck with your expanding family
