  1. play around with the Sherwin Williams color visualizer to find colors that you like. It is the best paint visualizer on the web, imho. I like how their color palette is laid out, I like that you can search by color family & color name, the "painted" rooms look the most realistic, and it suggests coordinating color schemes. You can literally spend hours:

    I think it would look really cool to paint your room with three large horizontal stripes. Measure the height of your wall and then divide by three. Paint the bottom third a dark color like "kale green" (# 6460), the middle a little lighter like "wheat grass" (# 6408), and the top third lighter still like "cottage cream" (# 7678). It would look unique yet still tasteful.

    You can also take a photo of your house & upload it to the makeover gallery on this website:

    You can get color suggestions & they'll photoshop them onto your room so that you can get an idea of what it will look like.


  2. Well If you  dont find pink or purple to be cute enough,u might as will put me all over your walls. :)



  3. when re-decorating home, bedroom or any other room, always try to choose colors according to feng shui. in this case you will activate powers of 5 elements (water, earth, metal, wood and fire) and support all your lucky "areas" - this will attract love, romance, wealth, money, prosperity, luck etc etc

  4. hey im painting my room next week, and im taking a dark brown and painting it, and then taking and designing it with a "toast" colour in a diagonal line across.. its really pretty.

  5. paint three walls one colour and then do a feature wall of another colour or maybe a picture.

    look at home and interior books to get inspiration or even search on the net.

  6. I just recently started remodeling my house and couldn't pick a color for the guest room.  I thought it would be boring to paint all the walls so I chose to do a feature wall.  The feature wall includes 1 wall of wallpaper, the bed with a headboard, two side tables, etc.  I know you never thought of wallpaper before or heard terrible stories about it, but after wallpapering this room, i want to do the rest of the house.  wallpaper is great.  Here are some pictures of rooms with one feature wall of wallpaper.
