My grandparents are letting me design my room! Need teenager ideas, help?
Hey Yahoo Answers,
OK, so I’m moving back home to my room that I left when I was ten and I used to stay in all two months of summer since. Now I am moving back in, I’m fifteen, I’ll be sixteen in March. So anyhow, my Granny and Pops are letting me do whatever I want to it, because I really want a fresh start and I want to change that room up a bit, make it more like a teenagers room and make it funky! I’m super excited (it’s nice to be excited and have something to think about until Monday). So anyhow, I get new EVERYTHING, from the floor to the the paint to the electronics to the furniture. And my Pops is making it so that I have a bathroom connected to my bedroom, and that’s the only entrance, so I’m getting my own BATHROOM! Super awesome! But I need some help, please.
Teenagers, what should I do? It’s so much design work! We are talking out the carpet and getting hardwood floor, and extending the closet, plus the door to my now, very own, bathroom! I don’t know what colour to paint my room! I have a large bay window and a side, normal window.
I need all new furniture- I want…a queen size bed, a desk, two end tables, a hide-a-bed couch, a chair for just sitting on, and a desk chair.
I need electronics- I want…a camera, a laptop, an iPod, a TV, a DVD player, cell phone and printer.
And anything else…
Can you help me with links you like and opinions on what brand I should get for what…ideas are what I am looking for.
And maybe some outfit and make-up help. I like preppy stores and my hair is blonde, I have fair skin and emerald, green eyes.
Thanks so much!!
Julia.
BTW…I am NOT a spolied brat, you would have to have lived in my shoes for the last five years at my mom and step-dad’s house to understand that. My grandparents are re-doing their whole house, and now that I’m moving in, it gives my Granny one more thing to change (she loves change) and my Pops one more thing to fix and work on (he always needs to be busy and likes to use his hands). Plus, I think they are just so excited for me to be back, and this is my Christmas and Birthday presents too. Plus my daddy is buying lots of the electronics, he hasn’t seen me in forever and I’m his only child, his only family, and it’s Christmas and Birthday stuff as well.
Thanks!
Julia.

I’m 16, and I want to make my room look totally new. I also want a bigger room but I’m not getting that. My walls are pink and purple, but I want all my walls to be lime green, with a blue ceiling. A polka-dot rug on the floor with wood flooring. A bean bag chair on top of that. Queen sized bed(fills my whole room, my room is soo small), with my desk next to that, so I can sit on my bed, and use my desk at the same time. I have a tv in my room, my dad is taking out. I have 2 drawer things, 1 by the bean bag, and 1 by my desk, for pencils, pens, paper, etc…
My room used to be the baby room, and I don’t get to be with my kitties, where they have a room 4 times bigger than mine, with a bathroom!
Don’t listen to the people that are saying bad things! You are just lucky to get, what you want.(Bad wording, sorry)

I think people are being too harsh on you. If I could afford to buy my kids/future grandkids that stuff, I would and I would give to charity too. Maybe they worked really hard to get to this point. I say enjoy your new room when you get it. I’m not good at designing rooms or anything so I don’t have much advice…sorry!
