Idea for Painting a BEDROOM Set in DISNEY PRINCESS THEME?

WellaTeam

HI guys I had a question, we bought a really nice bedroom set/hutch /desk set for my girls bedroom, and I need ideas on how to paint it in a disney princess theme?

My kids room is painted in lilac/pink with all disney decorations, does anyone have any ideas on what color to paint the bedroom set?

the set is now in all white, it needs to be painted because it has a few scratches, what color do you think will match? any ideas would be appreciated this will be such a fun project for me! Thanks in advance

Answer
A nice pale green colour would be lovely. It would compliment the lilac and pink already in the room.
Paint the furniture green with white accents, IE. doorknobs and antique white rubbed in along the borders of the Drawers and edges of the dresser, Headboard, and Chair etc.
Crystal knobs would go nicely as well on the dresser pulls/knobs.
You could paint a pretty floral in the centre of the drawers, Headboard etc. with these 4 colours.
It will give you a sense of continuity.

In my opinion.I would not repeat the actual Disney decorations on the furniture as that may look like overkill.
It would be far more princess like to paint an extension of what princesses rooms should look like.
You can pick up pretty floral motifs or any type for that matter,
in stencil form at Home Depot or a good paint store.
This is a very easy way and almost foolproof to achieving perfect painting images.
If you can afford to purchase Stencils with at least 2 to 4 Overlays the better and more professional the look will be.
It will have far more dimension to the artwork.
Another idea is to purchase stencils of your choice that have 2 overlays and create a raised plaster effect in white.
This technique is extremely easy and stunning once done.

I have supply you with some websites that you can browse through for inspiration and ideas as well as some instructions to the ideas that I have outlined for you.

How to Make Stencils for Painting below;
http://www.ehow.com/how_1602_make-stencils-painting.html
An important tip about stencil cutting is not lifting up your Exacto knife once you've started cutting. It makes for a sharper edge. Also, use a piece of glass as your cutting surface. This has really helped me and doesn't damage anything. Purchased an Exacto knife with a swiveling blade. Wow...this tool is so excellent makes me want to buy stock in the company...You need to buy Mylar film to create and cut out your own desgins. You will need a repositional Spray adhesive like the one made by Scotch.
You spray this on the back of the stencil and then place on the object that you will paint in.

How do I buy a bedroom set with matching desk and chair?

Val

All of the stores and online sources that I contacted didn't know where I could do this (bedroom sets don't usually come with matching desks and chairs). Any suggestions?

Answer
it depends on your taste.How about ikea or Ethan Allen furniture. I have a matching desk. I hope you find what you like.

Which color writing desk should I get with this bedroom set (pic included)?

mrr86

I ordered this bedroom set
http://www.vandrie.com/Item.aspx?ID=-116960777&SNum=B379-49

and I ordered brown curtains, have a light brown wooden floor, and blue walls.

The furniture does not come with a writing desk. Do you think I should go for a color similar to the furniture, or break it up and go with a dark brown wood? I was thinking of this desk in particular http://newyork.craigslist.org/mnh/fur/492115122.html

Answer
You have to be careful blending these two different colored woods. While they are all great pieces, the dark oak desk may stand out against the lighter chestnut pieces especially with the blue walls. I would seriously try to find a desk in either chestnut or something lighter. Better homes and gardens has a program that you can use to try different color schemes, floors, etc. This site may be helpful in letting you see how the pieces will look. Good luck.

How much does a girls bedroom set sell for?

Chiquitrix

The bedroom set includes a twin bed frame (matress not included), a nightstand with 2 drawers, and a desk with a pull out (for possible computer keyboard) and has 3 drawers. The bedroom furniture is all in white and has been used. What would be a rough estimate on what it would sell for? (craigslist)
Thanks in advance :)

Answer
Basic rule of thumb is: 1/4 of what it cost when it was new.

The actual cost when it was new will depend on the quality of the wood and of the construction. For instance, are the drawer joints dovetailed? Is it solid wood (and what kind of wood), veneered, or painted particleboard? There is a huge possible price range of what such furniture might cost.

Used white bedroom furniture set, as described. Assume the parents are not wealthy and didn't buy high-end furniture. Probably $100-125 value for the whole lot. Less for damage, staining, chips, etc.

HI guys I had a question, we bought a really nice bedroom set/hutch /desk set for my girls bedroom, and I need ideas on how to paint it in a disney princess theme?

My kids room is painted in lilac/pink with all disney decorations, does anyone have any ideas on what color to paint the bedroom set?

the set is now in all white, it needs to be painted because it has a few scratches, what color do you think will match? any ideas would be appreciated this will be such a fun project for me! Thanks in advance

Answer
The Home Depot has a Disney line of paint, made by Behr I think. It has specific color schemes for the Disney princesses which should make it easy to coordinate with the room. There are lots of shades of lilac and pink you could play with. We painted my daughter's desk with Wave of the Wand which is a cool mauvey color. Even the shades of blue like Cinderella Glass Slipper/ Bibbidi Bobbidi Blue or green like Tinkerbell could look really great too.

Answer
You probably dont want to paint it lilac or pin because it be kind of overbearing with the rest of the room so Id repaint it a low gloss white and edge it in either lilac or pink or find a way to incorporate the lilac/pink into it like little daisies or small crowns

How do I find out how much a bedroom set and dining room set (both 50+ years old) are worth to sell?

bedroom set with desk image

dennismd20

Both sets are made of wood, dark cherry finish. Bedroom set has 7 pcs. (headboard, footboard, vanity, bench, dresser, mirror, and chest). Dining room set has table w/leaf, 6 chairs, china cabinet, and chest. Antiques? Where to sell?

Answer
Go to the library and ask the information desk about finding a book to help you price the pieces. I did and found out I had a table worth $11,000. I was shocked.(no I didn't sell it). You can also look under the furniture and try and find the manufacturer and then do a computer search. Once you find a price you can go to Craigslist or put it in an antique store on consignment. Or just put an ad in your local paper or Penny Saver.

How is your bedroom set up?

B(^_^)b

I am redecorating my own bedroom [only I live there] and I'm wondering how all of you have their bedroom set up. For example, I'm torn between having my bed or desk next to the window...

Answer
My bedroom is so random right now do you really want to know? Haha. Ok my bed is against the wall, tv infront of bed against the other wall, dresser across the other wall, a chair in the middle of my room (it's just there for no reason), an old school desk beside the tv (I swear I used it in like 3rd grade), and scattered books and movies on the floor near my bed.

I like to decorate, once in a great while I'll get the motivation to change a room and I'm great at it.

You should have your desk next to the window so when you think about something you can look out and imagine all the endless possibilities.

What's the best way to go about selling furniture?

bedroom set with desk image

Red

I'm thinking about selling my furniture before I move. I have tons of stuff: queen bedroom set, trundle bed, desk, dinning room table, kitchen table, couches, coffee tables and end tables.

Answer
Selling furniture is really tricky, because you will have to ask much less than the furniture is worth, and then not even get the asking price.
Sometimes it is better to donate it to a non profit, then you will get a tax write off that might be even more than the cash you would get from selling it.
If you do want to sell it, give yourself plenty of time......it is hard to sell things in a rush.
I would suggest using Craigslist.org

Be sure to take pictures of all the things you are selling, then put them on a photo sharing site, then include a link to it in your craigslist add. Also include a couple of photos in the ad itself.

Next, be prepared to have your time wasted by non serious inquiries, people who stand you up (say they will come to buy the furniture, then don't), people who want to haggle you down to an unrealistically low price, and worst, people who have unrealistic expectations, like for you to ship it to their house.

Be very clear in your expectations: cash only, pick up only.

Also, don't be afraid to throw in a freebie or two.... for example, if someone buys your couch, throw in an end table or a lamp.

Selling furniture is hard, time consuming, and you might not sell all of it.

So keep your expectations realistic, give yourself plenty of time, and don't let yourself get screwed.

Original Question

Where can I see samples of vintage Drexel Furniture types online?

Q. In cleaning out my grandparents' basement, I discovered several beautiful, well-preserved pieces of vintage Drexel mahogany furniture. There is a six piece bedroom set, a desk, and a buffet (sideboard). According to my mother, this furniture was purchased around 1930. I want to determine which line these pieces came from, so that I can research the value. Does anyone know of an online (or other) resource with detailed photos of antique fine furniture lines?

A. You might try looking at ebay.com, and not just the auction stuff, but the stores, too. If the pieces are solid mahogany and not mahogany veneer, they might be worth a good bit of money. You may wish to send photos to one of the auction houses (Sothebys or Christies) for an estimate of their value; they will know which line the pieces are.
