DesignRchic's Ideas for Karma's BR
UPDATE: I just uploaded all the products listed her in my Fab Finds under "karmasabitch bedroom ideas." For some reason, the Crate and Barrell Leaning desk had difficulties going into the Fab Find, but you can go to their website under "Home Office Furniture / Office Desks, Armoires" and scroll down to the Leaning Desk.
Sooo Karma, Here's my vision for your bedroom. If you're not going to end up buying a loft bed, or any other bed, my suggestion is replacing the one you currently have in your room with your daybed.
Here are some Black/White/Magenta bed's in a bag that are on sale at Target (go online).
Not sold out on this one, but you get the idea.
OK, OK, I'm feeling this one...
Here are some pillows you can buy that are also on sale at Target. They're cheap, and add so much to a room. You can put a few on your black couch and bed.
This one added on 2/9
This pillow is 16.99!! at www.wrapables.com >under "Sale/Decorative Pillows"
MAGENTAAAAAAA, as accent color.
I LOVE Whip's idea of mounting shelves on the wall to save space too! Another way to save space and have a desk, is to EVENTUALLY get something like this Leaning desk/bookshelf. I have one of these in our tiny condo, and let me tell you, it's perfect for small spaces!
Crate & Barrell $199.00
I'd also suggest getting rid of the brown bookshelf, the one to your left as you enter your room. It doesn't go with the rest of the room and with mounted shelves, you won't need it.
I'm thinking of finding a TV stand the same width as the wall between the closet and entryway...
TV Stand?
And finally, the layout for your bedroom. I tried to get as accurate as possible with dimensions.

Post a CommentCute! I love these ideas as well. Karmas room will be slammin in no time!
very cute ideas!! I really like the bedding!!!
i LOVE target bedding.. it's inexpensive (most of it) and a lot of fun - a splash of color can really change the room!
thanks girls! Let's hope she likes it. Hopefully she'll get that job so she can buy some of these things
Adorable. And I love your floor plan.
Another idea - this won't maximize space, but it'll make the room LOOK bigger - is to hang a big mirror on one of the walls. If they're not all covered with shelves, that is.
Yea, that's a great idea Whip! Mirror do give the illusion of more space.
I love that bedding DC.
Thanks Twink
too cute and functional too.. you don't do this for a living or anything, huh?
I'm not an interior designer, I wish. I'm going to buy a sewing machine next week!!! And then take classes. It's an area I'd love to explore.
wow Dchic!!!!!!
Love LOve the bedding!! even the magenta, I love the black, white and black. OMG you have the best taste!
DC, great job!!! I love the last bed! I also really love the magenta & black throw pillows for the bed and couch (perfect). Whips, idea of the shelving is awesome. The room set up is perfect, in my opinion. I also like how you created an area for her TV, and I like the TV stand you found. You did a really beautiful job!!
Delias.com also has some really cute bedding. Since you have a twin (it looks like) you could get them. I'm always bummed that they don't have their stuff in a king.
Ooooo girl I love everything!
That TV stand is gorg and the pillows
The layout is sweeeeeeeeeeet but my room definitely won't hold the couch + bed like that.. if I had the couch there, I'd be lucky if the bed fit pushed all the way against the back wall. Also the magenta tables.. I only have room for (possibly) one right now with the bed pushed up against the wall.. So I'd have to store one which would be FINE
Thanks girl!!!
I'm thinking.. I love where you have the couch/bed set up..
Delias is awesome SPM!
DC I have a friend that loves Target bedding but I've never gotten anything like that there.. my last few sets have been from Ikea and this one is just a temp set I bought asap when I got here. I'm so on that
Oh yea SPM, Delia's has decor like this too!! I found these online at Target. Sometimes the shipping is free and most of the items I posted are on sale. (College Student sale that is
) It was a bit har to arrange everything without dimensions. But think away girl!!! I'll update
this blog with the links to the items.
DC I'm so loving those dang magenta pillows! I got a blanket in that color for Xmas that would match PERFECTLY!!!!!!!
Cool! And Once I start sewing, I'll make you a few pillow and mail them to you
.
*pillows
WOOT WOOT!
Plus a
stuffed animal don't you forget biznitch
Oh yea, HOW could I forget!
for you AND a PINK
for Yayi
Yeah *pillows* I thought you were Chinese speaking English as a second language for a sec there hahahah
I want a giant
blanket in the exact shape of this smiley 
OMG KARMA, now THAT would be BAD decor on my part
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH Come on DC! Where else could I ever get one?!?!!?!? You have to make it
OMG the ladies at the fabric place will look at me like I have 3 heads when I ask, "Excuse me...can you tell me where I can find a
pattern?"
HAHAHAHAHAH a giant
and googly eye button thingies
Oh Karma, you KNOW I can go all out with this shizzznit!
Dchic I absolutely love your taste!!! I would so make a room exactly how you say. THe set up looks awesome, too bad karmys is smaller
No pink pepino for me Dchic hahahaa I would kill Karma hahahahaa
Hahahahaha he needs the pepino stripes, googly eyes, and the red mouth and white gloves
DC what prog did you use to make that room layout?
Probably some super DC design program
Yeah I'm curious which one you used DC because I looked and I do have all of the microsoft apps on here.. If I could put in measurements of the room/furniture and figure it out on the comp that would be AWESOME
Do it!!! karmy
Hi girls! I used Quark Xpress to do the layout. The program's mainly used for print, so I design ads, posters, magazine layouts, etc. I wish I had a 3-D modeling program. I'm racking my brain trying to figure out which Microsoft application you can use that you can plus in measurements.... hmm...
yeah!!! I know how to use quark Dchic, I used it in College for print advertising campaigns. It was mandatory to learn Quark and photoshop.. too bad I havent used it in ages. It wasnt that bad though, although Im sure they have much better versions now hahahaha.
Im talking over 6 years ago
yeah babe!!! my fave junk food! tomorrow is junkfood day.. pink your fave guilty pleasure Dchic
A cuban sandwich maybe??? hahaahhaa
PIZZA!!!! Pepperoni Pizza to be exact!
You guys are killing me with your effing buffalo wings and pepperoni pizza, I just started a diet today
Okkk so unless you come up with a new idea I will be sending one of you measurements for my room layout
BOO YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Sounds good Karma! BTW, I'm on a diet too! The worst part of having pizza on my avey is that I'm babysitting 3 boys tonight AND the mom left $$ so I can order pizza for dinner
I'm going to try REALLY hard to not have a slice!!!
Oh no DC, that's the WORST. I hate it when I'm dieting and someone orders pizza.. salad.. hot wings.. dessert.. BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Be strong girl and don't break the diet.. you'll feel soooo much better tomorrow if you resist. Just make a good healthy dinner and fill up on that so you don't get the crazy urge!
I'm looking through all of the bed in a bags on the Target website btw
COOL!!!!!! They have free shipping on $50 or more too.
and tempting me to bit into the soft
cheesy pepperoni pizza!
I know I'll feel better tomorrow if I resist. I might eat a
snack before I get to their house tonight.
Thanks for the encouragement BTW, I'm glad you're not
I noticed that too! They have some really cute stuff
Oh totally do that, have a healthy snack that is somewhat filling before you go! And bring something small with you just in case you find yourself reaching for the pizza
Give yourself a mental b*tchslap and eat your own food
that first bed looks great! but karma is going to destroy it in a week with her dirrrrrty acrobats
