DECORATING THE BEDROOM-IDEAS for FALL

Today I'm pondering decorating the bedroom. Ideas for fall are on my mind even though the heat index is still 110 and better. I ask you, have I been obsessing over that far too much? Maybe I need to start turning the sound off on the weather channel so that I won't feel like my proverbial cheese may be sliding right off the cracker for feeling the urge to jump in and start bringing (read warm) fall colors into the decor.

Just so you know that I haven’t gone totally whacko...yet even when I decorate with the cool colors that I usually bring out for summer to counteract our scorching temperatures, my house literally screams FALL with the colors we have throughout including the bedrooms and the bathrooms.

Fall is my my favorite time of year to decorate and one of my favorite color combinations is PURPLE and ORANGE! I just love all of the warm colors even though decorating the bedroom and looking at ideas for fall in late August just makes me feel well...hotter.

What about you, are you looking for new girl bedding sets with a warmer look to them in fall colors or do you just keep the same comforter set in place until it becomes threadbare and you're sick to death of it?

WHAT COLOR GOES WITH GREEN WALLS

After my post on purple and green bedding yesterday, I was asked what color goes with green walls. The visitor who asked the question did not give me much to work with there, did she? However, I will do my best to answer her question regardless of how little information she gave me by putting the ball back into her court, so to speak, by asking a few questions of my own.

My first question would be whether or not you have chosen your comforter, your curtains or area rug?

The second questions would be what decorative style or bedroom theme do you have in mind? Are you a fan of French, Country, Traditional, Modern or would you prefer something that is breathtakingly bold and original?

It may be difficult for a beginner to understand, but to ask what colour goes with green walls without having made these decisions is to spend hours and perhaps days backtracking and possibly having to return purchases (which is a nightmare even if you didn't pick them up on sale) after you think you have the problem solved.

So, my answer to the teenage girl who asked this question would be to come back with those items in hand (assuming the bedding set she chooses even calls for a green wall paint color) and then we can choose decorations and accessories that are manufactured in the best wall accent colors for her bedroom.
