Answer 1

check out to see if there are any habitat for humanity stores in your area or somthing simular or even some 2nd hand stores a lot of times when habitat for humanity goes into a old homes for repairs or to demo them they strip them out and sell the old fixtures and use the proceeds to help other families repair or build them new homes and left over fixtures and stuff from new builds they sell also oh and even hardware stores donate to them any way you would be surprised on some of cool lighting fixtures they have. and if i were you that wall paper is so dramatic you might want to do 3 wall rather than 2 it might look odd if you don't and with the black and white wall paper i would choose red accents instead of pink there is so much black it will drowned out the pink but the wall paper under that one is a little more gray pink would look sharp with that

Awesome!!!  I love this!!!

Think glass, silver, & pink-

crystal or glass candleholders, vase, lamp or chandelier.

silver framed mirrors or pictures, silver vanity for your perfume bottles, silver candles for your glass holders.

pink & black & or silver bedding, silk type throw pillows, plush rug, soft flowy curtains.

try architectural salvage stores in your area.  do a google or yahoo search.  You might find that the perfect chandelier( not the right color spray paint it) and more accessories to go in your newly designed room.  I love Damask.  However, it can be overwhelming. I actually would do one wall with the Damask! It will make more of a statement! Do you have a lot of light coming into the room?  If yes, I would try use a very dark blue black paint or even black paint on the opposing walls or one of your favorite colors.as this will make it more dramatic. .. and don't forget to paint the ceiling. Also, Paint the Chandlier black if you will be using another color other than black for walls.  if you will be using black for the opposing walls then, I would paint the chandlier white and add black and white and silver accessories for a more of a designer look. It will be a lot more peaceful to focus on just a few colors instead of many colors....   Best of Luck!
