Interior Design Help, Please!?

Question

Well, i'm moving into my first apartment in a few weeks and i do not know how i want to decorate my room. It'll be my first year in college, so i'm lookin' for something really cool and chic. Any creative and relatively inexpensive ideas?

Answer 1

Find one large item to hang on the wall that you absolutely love and that will make a big statement.  A artsy quilt works wonderfully - easy to hang, great for sound, lots of character and personality, moves easily etc.

Pick your bedding in something that will work with the quilt/wall hanging, have something to hold and display your favorite snapshots, and everything else will fall into place.

Answer 2

I would suggest going through magazines or design/ furniture websites for ideas to get started. I'm not sure if you're male or female, rich or poor, but I always get good ideas when I go to Ikea's website and CB2.com also.

You might not be able to do anything to the walls, if you're renting, but you could decorate with bedding, free-standing shelving, lights, and wall decorations (the kind that come off easily).

Answer 3

a new comforter set with flowers on it.

Answer 4

Well you'll need bed stuff. Maybe not the whole set but that depends where you're going. Target has some cool comfortors that I saw yesterday that I'd definitely get. You could get a lamp for the night stand and maybe a picture frame or two for your desk with your friends or something. Pretty much just get what you need but in colors so it'll be feminine and cool!

Answer 5

black and white is good basic theme-- accessories can be in any colors you want--depends on your taste-- fun places to look are antique malls which have several vendors for unusual and unique items--
