Does anyone have any good ideas on how i can make my bedroom cooler?

Question

Well, i don't think my bedroom is that interesting. It's just an average room with nothing to make it particularly individual.

I'm a teenage girl by the way, muchly into music, and indie and emo kind of stuff =D

Does anyone have any good ideas on how i can make it a little cooler? Stuff that's not too expensive =]

Answer 1

Okay, deep, royal purple for ceiling. Yes, the ceiling. Paint the walls a soft, light butter yellow. (Purple and yellow compliment one another, not lemon yellow, butter yellow) Put up all your artwork, and think about putting things on the walls that normally wouldn't go there, little decorative hooks, and hang beads and favorite necklaces there. Try using paper lampshades to soften the glow of lamps and you can paint designs on them. Film posters, photos of family and friends in unique frames, the frames do not have to match. Pull the purple color from the ceiling into fabrics for your furniture and bedding. Hang fabric strips from cheap curtain rods like long banners on the walls. Just make sure that some of the items you hang up have some of that same purple and deeper shades of the butter yellow, some red orange (sunset, not brick color).  It will make the room very unique, cheerful and most definately yours. Get small cans of bright colored acryllic paint that compliment the purple and yellow, and have your friends sign their names on your walls with the year. Encourage them to draw a little character of themselves to go with it. Family too, if you like. Or paint little symbols on the walls to go around the art you hang.  

The beauty part is that this is just paint....it can be covered up anytime you get bored with it.  

Answer 2

well if you can do it grab some friends and write all over your walls..i did that with my friends and it looks really cool.  when i cant fall asleep at night i just read my wall.heheh.put a bunch of pictures on it.

Answer 3

Come up with a theme...I have a beer room and a wrestling room...and I also have a bunny :D

Answer 4

you can install some additional window treatments such as a thick curtain liner or you can apply film to your windows.  film comes in many different colors and has levels of blocking the sun.  these items can be bought at any department store or a home improvement store.  i work for lowes and we carry gila window film products and also curtain liners.  or you can improvise.  use aluminum foil on the window or paint them.  but these solutions are very temporary.  use cool colors in painting, light colors.  

Answer 5

canvas- that you have done yourself?

or dedicate a wall to photos of family and friends? Like a collage. That always looks good.

Answer 6

You want your room to be cooler? May I suggest an air conditioner?

Bad joke?

Answer 7

You can take a bunch of pictures of your friends fav places or things and put them on construction paper different ways and hang them on your walls.  YOu can also take a can of chalkboard spray paint and put a section of chalk board on your walls.  My last suggestion would be glow in the dark paint.  You can only see it at night they sell it at walmart its really cool.  They also sell glow in the dark stars you can put on your ceiling or walls.
