Default Decorating my Bedroom

I am planning to decorate my Bedroom, at the moment the walls are a bit scabby an the wallpaper is dull. just a cream colour. I am going to have my wall this colour



What do you think of i? I hate those boring cream colours and think that green is a really nice vibrant colour?

Any Tips on anything? And has anyone got any plans to decorate?

I agree, just doa feature wall, that way the novelty won't wear off so quick. Maybe dashes of its on the other walls through a photo or poster or something.

Ohh Lewis, that colour would go well with the severe epileptic fits the room would cause you.

I'd get a sore head if all the walls were that colour.
Why don't you have like 3 white walls and one green?

Lewis dont have that on all the walls, put it on one main wall and then maybe like a cream on another then maybe a pale yellow on one?
And then like have the lime green on your bed covers etc. And have it around your room. but not on all 4 walls. it will make your room look smaller.

On my walls, I have 1 blue, one purple, one white and one is covered in posters so you can't see it - but it's white! xD

Just paint them random pastel colours maybe?
But I do love that green colour!

2 walls lime
the rest white (not cream)
Make sure the window wall is white to reflect more light into the room.

I was going to have lime green and pink walls in my new room but apparantly it makes rooms look really small, so perhaps it'd be best to just do one wall in green?? I'm not having green anymore, just hot pink haha.

As everyone said, 1 lime wall. Also, mix silver and browny/orange fixtures. Although, you could try green wallpaper instead of paint. It will be much more interesting and you can match the wallpaper pattern to bed sheets and stuff. Dark brown furniture would probably go well too.

I re did my room a while ago and Im really pleased with it Pics are in the 'what does your bedroom look like' thread.

maybe a slightly paler version if your going to do all walls,that would look nice I reckon.Or like the rest have said just do a feature wall.Im in the process of decorating my room,well thinking of ideas.I want really dark purple walls,I know it will make my room like smaller but I don`t care,and then Im having black accesories and cushions and bedding in different lighter shades of plum,aubergiene (sp) etc
