ANY CREATIVE IDEAS? or anything else?

I’m redecorating/rearranging my room, and I had a few questions.
We’re putting in new floors, so the ugly blue carpet will be replaced with a dark hardwood floor. (This is not my room, but this is what the floors will look like: http://img214.imageshack.us/img214/2552/…
I’m tired of the way my room is arranged now, and I was thinking about moving things around since it will all have to be moved anyways for the floor to be put in.

(I’ll eventually paint the room a really light beige color. Also, my bed spread is very old, and I’m trying to look for one that will go with my theme. There was a perfect silk comforter at Target, but I don’t think they’re carrying it anymore. The windows are going to repainted, and bamboo blinds will be put in. My screen doors on the closet are painted blue, but will be removed, and my dad and I were thinking about putting bamboo there instead-like blinds or a curtain)
Please let me know what you think, or if you have suggestions/ideas/plans throw them out there! ^^

I’m a teen, 17, female.
I like in a condo so my room isn’t THAT big but it isnt like REALLY small either. I have wood/bamboo furniture (dresser,mirror,bed) and wood floor (medium brown). i have glass mirrors on my closet as well.
Right now my walls are a light greenish (spring leaf by Benjamin Moore) and i want to get a bed set that matches with it as well as curtains. i was thinking of getting this bed set:

i was thinking of painting one wall, like where my dresser/mirrior is and make it purple (not baby purple) (Scandinavian blue by Benjamin Moore) because i want to put my frames up for graduation and stuff there as well so itll stand out.
my room inst THAT big, so i dont know if that purple will make the room look smaller, but everything else is light so i don’t know.
please give your opinion/suggestions.
thank you,

My living room / dining room walls are olive green, light tan sofa (with light tan pillows and two black pillows that I added recently), bamboo blinds, ecru curtains, oak hardwood floors. My large TV console/bookcase is espresso brown (black-brown), two chairs are black wood & espresso leather seats, and end tables are black metal and dark brown wood. It’s pared down in the aspect of having very little clutter (photos, vases, trinkets, etc.) sitting around. It’s all very earthy-looking and I like it.
I want to paint my old coffee table, dining room table & buffet, but not sure if I should paint them espresso brown or black. Painting the tables and buffet espresso brown seems ’safer’ than going with black. Am I just being a sissy about the black? Any suggestions?

I am 17 and going to college next summer. I want to make my room really nice before I leave.
I like in a condo, so my room is not that big.
I have a glass computer desk, bamboo dresser/bed (brown) and wood floor in my room (like a regular brown)

like that kind of but a tad bit darker.
and there is molding on the bottom same as the wood floor.
I dont want to make it too girlish. i want to put up picture frames and stuff before i leave so yeah.
I want to do it pink or purple, but i dont know if it would go with the wood floor.
i have light green right now and it goes but i havvent found curtains to go with it for the past like 2 years!
i want to do a mocha/light brown, but i don’t know exactly which kind ( i was looking on Benjamin Moore website)
what color would look nice (from what i suggested or anything else also =) )

Has anyone used carpet cleaner like this? I guess there’s dry carpet cleaner that you can vaccuum up yourself, does anyone have any suggestions? I’d rather do it myself than hire someone, the guy that was going to do it for me never showed up and I’d rather just get this over with my carpet looks terrible.

I have gray slip covers, wood furniture, gold curtains, bamboo blinds, and wood floor…
What color should I paint the walls? I was thinking a green or something? Help me please

my room is light green,
kind of like this

My daughter will be 1 and a half at christmas time. I would like at that time to redo her room because at this point she will most likely be ready to convert her crib to toddler bed and such. Right now her walls are light yellow on top ivory trim and chair rails, and sage green wainscoting on the lower half. I want to leave the wainscoting there and the chair rail. Her carpet is also sand colored burber, but that can be changed. I think I want to do a bamboo wood flooring with a large area rug. So my question is what theme should I choose? I dont want something generic and charectory. She hasnt ever seem TV and dosnt know who any of the cartoons are, so that isnt even an option. I want something fun and girly, but not froo froo over the top. I want it to be liveable and to grow with her until 5-6. Also I would like it to be a functional theme to sort of play off of/with. All that needs to stay in the room is her convertible crib/toddler bed, a bookshelf, and her dresser/change table.

I need a new carpet for my room and I want to know what TYPE of carpet is best for a bedroom setting. I just want it to look smooth and feel good and squishy if I were to lay on it. Not scratchy and hard.
I don’t now much about this stuff at all.
