Redo your room: Let there be light!

 
Summer’s a great time to redo your room. Before you start from zero, remember that a couple small changes can make you, um, see things in a new light. Then switch around some furniture, pop up a couple cute new snaps in some frames and, viola! A new room that cost you nearly nothin’!

I want to redo my room but my parents wont let me paint my white walls or get new furniture. The queen bed in my room takes up a lot of space.They say I can paint over my dark-wood brown furniture. I'm really confused.Thanks in advance!




Hey girl,

Since you can't paint the walls but can paint the furniture, use the white walls as a solid background and paint the furniture in bright, funky colors. Paint your bedframe one color, your desk another, and your dresser a different one! You can even use stencils to paint on flowers or hearts. It'll make your room so bright and colorful! x0x0

My room is basically an eclectic theme, but it's starting to look more thrown together. I can't get new furniture, but I can do almost anything else I need. How can I make my room look eclectic, not disorganized?




Hey girl,

Try putting different fabrics in your room, like one on your bed and a different one for the curtains. x0x0

I really want to redo my room. I've had the same furniture since I was 3, and my parents won't let me get new furniture! I'm in middle school and my room looks like it is for a second grader! They won't let me paint my furniture, either. Is there any way for me to make my room look like a cool, fun teen room?




Try redecorating your walls with the latest pics of you and your friends! You could also make collages to hang on your walls! This will make it feel more up to date.

Hey girl, it depends on how old this guy is. If he's only 1-3 years older than you, your parent probably won't mind as much. However, if he is much older, you might want to talk to your parents about it. <3 Jeannie

***MOD***MOD***MOD***MOD***MOD***
I get great grades, i know right from wrong, and hardly ever go behiind my parent's backs. I can't date till im 16 (im 13 now). I really want to date. But i can't go that far behind my parent's back. I'm so determined to get my 1st kiss this summer. I'm soo ready for that, but i feel so confused. Is having a boyfriend, just not going on dates, dating? And if I got my first kiss, do you think that would be like too far? PLease help. I want this to be the best summer ever!




Hey babe! If you really want to start dating, try sitting down with your parents and talking to them. I can't guarantee that they'll change their minds, but you can at least have them start thinking if you talk to them maturely. Also, it's a TON of pressure to put on yourself to have your first kiss this summer. Take that pressure off of yourself and just use the summer to have tons of fun relaxing and hanging out with your friends. You're first kiss will come eventually - I promise - but you're not gonna want to ruin your summer fun by putting such high pressure on yourself.

Hey babes, I would look at some of the art work from tinkerbell stories and bring it with you when you're shopping.  One super cute idea is to have a hanging lantern above your bed, just like the one she was in during peter pan.  Also focus on wispy light fabrics for curtains.  XoLori

For the summer I want to get my haircut for when I go on vacation. It is a little pasted my shoulders now but I haven't seen my mom's family in 2 years and I want to look nice, but I don't want my hair too short. What should I do? Should I do it shoulder length? Or cut even more than that? PLEASE HELP!!!
MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD







Hey babe,

It's always scary cutting off your hair! You never know how it's going to look. A few ways you can try to get an idea of what it might look like are to look at pictures of celebs and girls in magazines who have hair that looks like yours (straight, curly, or whatever) and have faces with similar shapes. Check out what looks good on them and try to imagine how it might look on you. Another thing you can do is just get a little bit cut off when you go, see how that looks, and if you want to go shorter, keep going! Your hairdresser can always cut off more, but you have to be careful because s/he can't cut of less! Good luck!

HELP!!
thanx!







Hey babe,

Tell your sisters that you are really hurt and angry about this behavior. Try to establish some ground rules between yourselves about what you can tell your parents and what you can't. Make sure they understand that if they continue to act like this you're not going to trust them with your secrets anymore and point out that you respect them enough not to treat them this way. Having said that... they're sisters, and sometimes that's just how sisters are, so there are no guarantees that they'll listen to you. If they don't, try getting your parents to intervene.

And look for an even sneakier spot for your journal! ;)

I don't really want to talk about it to my doctor, because this rarely happens and because my doctor is a male. Whats wrong with me??? HELP!







Hey babe,

It's probably nothing to worry about. Try cleaning very carefully with a wet cotton cloth and then a dry one. If this keeps happening, you might want to talk to a doctor or gynecologist about it.. If you ask your doctor to speak to a woman, he might know of one he can recommend. You may want to switch doctors anyway - it's important to feel totally comfortable discussing your body with your physician!! s/he can't help you if you can't him/her what's wrong!

none of those would go with my room... it's more of a hawaiian flower style room... and the walls are like, periwinkle... i absolutely HATE it! i want something more grown up, like light pink walls w/a brown stripe through the middle. And i have a bunk bed w/a desk underneath it and i hate that too. i want a normal bed. i want to totally redo my room. like everything, but my mom wont let me.

mod mod mod i started my period a few months ago and can i swim with a pad if not how do ask my mom to let me use a tampon







Hey babe,

If you want to swim you'll have to use a tampon. Pads just get full of water. Tell your mom why you need a tampon for swimming and ask her to help you learn how to use one. If you're nervous or embarrassed about asking you can try writing her a letter. Good luck!

What would be a good hair cut for some one with very curly hair??







Hey babe,

A cute haircut is all about the shape of your face and how your hair frames it. Try looking through a magazine for pictures of girls with hair and faces like yours andsee what you like. You can also look at celebs' haircuts for ideas. Hope that helps!

Painting your room can also make it COMPLETELY different. A can of paint costs $30, so it's not even more expensive than any of the idea's here! Paint your room, re-arrange your furniture... Add some paper lanterns maybe (if you like that look), and TA-DA! A new room!

These are cute!!! ***MOD*** I have like wavy-ish hair that gets curly but with out wringlets in humid weather. I want to curl it, but NOTHING WORKS!!! I've tried curlers, curling it with a big barrel, curling it with a small barrell, scrunching, wetting it then scruching it and putting it in a bun. IT DOESN'T WORK. How can I get cute curls with out all the frustration and re-curling? Thanks.

 

It is very hard for people with straight or wavy hair to get ringlet curls to last.  A cool trick you could try is curling it with a straightening iron!  Wrap the hair around the iron and see what comes out!  it may not be the super curly ringlets you wanted but your sure to get some awesome curl!

The room make-over ideas are endless but it all depends on how creative your willing to get!  You can find your local Ikea store to get ideas from lamps and funiture but why not try some home-made improvements?

MOD!!! I have a question. Okay so I want to start my own business this summer to help animals.But I'm not sure if I need a license or permit to do that .I live in North Carolina if it helps any.But, I don't know what to do.My parents said to look it up.I went to my state's home page and couldn't find any thing that could help me.THANKS for any help you can give me!

 

Hmm.. how about going on Google and keyword your state and animal care or helping animals with it.  That should give you a good list of references of places in your state with your interests!  If your having a hard time just ask Mom and Dad to help with the search!  I'm sure they would love to get involved!

***MOD**** I need good dresses to wear to cotillion class next month, and I was thinking of going to vintage stores, the problem is that there are rules the dresses have to follow... (no shoulder blades showing, no spaghetti straps, and the dress has to be below the knees...) do you think that vintage stores' clothes would be too "hip" to follow these rules, or should I not even bother trying there? thanks...

 

I think it would definitly be a good idea to check it out and see what they have.  If they don't have anything that fits the cotillion's strict requirements try a Macy's, JCPenneys, or Forever21.  All stores with adorable dresses for half the price!  Good luck on the dress hunt!

You say you like braids so what about a braid on the side with some front pieces of hair with the rest left down curly?  If it is too curly to be left down at all what about putting it in a cute stylish bun or pony?  Good luck curly cutie
