New member-introductions [22 Dec 2009|07:12am] ourbedrooms [alchemyjen] [ mood | determined ] Hi there, I'm planning on switching all the bedrooms in my house over the holiday break. My teenaged daughter is going to get the master, my 10 year old son is getting her old room, and then my husband and I are going to get the 92sqft tiny bedroom our son is in. The kids need more space, and we figure this is the best way to give them more room to spread out! They have an ever revolving string of lounging eating guests, so no time like the present to give them more space. Pics of the before will uploaded soon! 5 comments|post comment

rooms with this bedding? [21 Dec 2009|03:16pm] ourbedrooms [danaaaaleigh] I've been wanting this bedding for the longest time from walmart.. I bought it about a year ago and had to return it because my room wasn't going to get painted for a while. Now that my room can finally be repainted I'm buying this again and I'd like to see what wall colors go well with this set. If anyone has it, or something similar please post it with the color of your walls. My walls are light pink and wood work is hot pink so it wouldn't go with this at all, I definitely need and want to repaint. I don't want to do red or black on my walls so I was thinking of doing my walls grey and woodwork black with this, what does everyone think? Thanks :) 5 comments|post comment

[22 Dec 2009|12:37am] ourbedrooms [giddyromance] Hi everyone! :) I've been a member of this community for ages, and I think I've finally been inspired enough to makeover my room (eek!). I'm in love with the idea of having a few different sized frames with quotes in them up on my walls...I know I've seen pictures of that sort of thing on here, but I've just spent the last hour looking through the tags, and I can't find anything! So please, show me your/anyone else's framed quotes! Thanks so much. :) post comment

Hello, decorating a new house in the future. [19 Dec 2009|09:19pm] ourbedrooms [sunshinehair] So I've lived away from my parents for 2 yrs now. Recently I moved home and forfeited my house on base because my husband went to Afghanistan. So, since then most of our stuff has been in storage, but we only have the basics like a bed but no frame and a couch. so I get to start over. We don't even have furniture! So, I've compiled a photo montage of things I've made, want, or have collected for when I get to move back out. I have a very eclectic style. ( My inspiration and stuff! ) So this is my realistic inspiration for now, any other ideas now that you have an idea of my taste? 11 comments|post comment

[19 Dec 2009|08:49pm] ourbedrooms [ironhide] Hey there, some of you might remember me, I posted my room back in October, which you can see: HERE I'm looking for advice. If you see my room or know me at all you'll know that I love hockey more than anything. I had three game-used Detroit Red Wings hockey sticks in a corner of my bedroom. My room is very small (which you can definitely see in my previous post). I recently purchased a game-used stick from my very favorite Red Wing and the corner is now looking a bit cluttered. ( Which you can see here. ) Does anyone have any suggestions with what I might do to better display these sticks? They have different curves, depending on how the player shoots and one is a goalie stick, which makes it quite a bit bigger than the rest. The sticks are also as tall as I am how they're stood up right now (5' 9"). I absolutely do not want to damage the sticks in any way. I'm hoping to move out in March but having some ideas for how to display them in my apartment would be awesome too. Any ideas would be most welcome. Thanks! 16 comments|post comment

Brown paper journals. [18 Dec 2009|11:23pm] jr__nal [nitroglycerin_x] i got a nice brown paper journal a while ago and it's just been sitting there because, quite frankly, i have no idea where to start with it. i don't want it to be full of cut and paste pictures and biro sketches like it is at the moment. but, because i like to work in inks and watercolour which look very bad on brown paper, i'm lacking any inspiration and i've not the heart to see it go to waste. so, i was wondering does anybody know of any good techniques to use when journaling on brown paper?  21 comments|post comment

Medication storage [18 Dec 2009|01:57pm] ourbedrooms [zombiedansen] [ mood | busy ] Hey everyone, just a short question here while I rearrange my room for the new year. I know I'm not the only person on this community that takes some number of pills every day. The problem is I have to leave the bottles somewhere I can see them or I will forget to take them (which is bad considering one is birth control and the others are for my bipolar-ism and I simply cannot function normally without them at this stage.) That being said, how do you store your medications? How can I keep them in sight without drawing attention to them and creating an eyesore? Sorry if this seems silly, but I get all in a huff about little things like this for some reason. Thanks =] 24 comments|post comment

air mattress [18 Dec 2009|08:33am] ourbedrooms [fadedglory187] I'm moving into a tiny 1 bedrooms apartment in a few weeks and I'm still trying to decide what to do about a bed. I was going to take my twin bed from my parents house but this bed is very heavy and I'll live up on the third floor with winding stairs that are a pain. Has anyone used an air mattress before as their main bed? What brands are the best to get? I'm looking into any that are fairly inexpensive yet durable ( I have a cat so I'll need one that's pretty puncture resistant). I'm only going to live at this apt for about 6 months so I'm thinking this might be my best bet. 19 comments|post comment

help finding drawers for Ikea storage unit? [17 Dec 2009|11:13pm] ourbedrooms [brittanyhocake] [ mood | anxious ] I typed this all out then accidentally submitted it, then hit back in the process and it got lost I guess. D: Anywho, I'll do it again. Where are places where I can get these drawers? I've seen them in various colors and I don't like the zipper ones at Ikea. ( click! ) I'm planning on getting this, and that's what I need them for. Also, is that the storage unit I should get? Or should I get it from somewhere other than Ikea? Any suggestions are appreciated <3 thanks so much! (I hope this post all makes sense I'm in a hurry!) xoxo 7 comments|post comment
