I have a circle bed with a big pink comforter, and I have like a aqua pillow, a lime green one, and a pink one, along with the one I sleep on. My walls are a melon-salmon ish pink, and I have light purple and pink and lime green stick on flowers on one wall with my name spelled out in the same colors. My curtains for my windows are light pink with thousands of hearts with the same colors as listed above.

The thing is, I have a wood desk, a wood nightstand, and a wood dresser. It is like tan wood (sorry I dont know the name of the wood). It feels like wood, like it isnt smooth or shiny. I have a vanity that is dark wood colored like a deep chocolate brown, that is smooth and shiny, kind of like plastic feeling, but harder.

What color should I paint the dresser, nightstand, and desk? A light pink or darker pink than my walls? Or should I do a completely different color?

(The reason why everything is pink is because I am a girly girl. I do pageants and model and act. I am also 15 :)

I just moved to a new place and the screens on the windows in my room have some holes in them. Rather than buy new ones, what can I use to patch them up? I tried packaging tape and duct tape, neither of those work.

I have a window AC unit. It is way to small for the window I have. Is there any way to be able to prop it up on something in my house to be able to use it when indoors it is 85 degrees? Is it safe?

I'm moving into my first apartment, and I really have no idea how to decorate the bathroom. I usually think themed rooms are tacky; however, I'm on a limited budget and did stumble across this one at target: http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/602-7554679-7303036?ie=UTF8&frombrowse=1&asin=B000HZBOHQ
Do you all like that one? My walls are an off white/bone kind of color, so I don't want to get the white matching towels.. What color towels should I hang? And also, if you have any other ideas let me know, cause I'm definitely not dead set on this one yet.

My friend just moved into an apartment and it has the grossest ala 1970 linoleum on the walls. She doesnt want to put any money into the place, but I thought if she could paint over it it would really make it so much nicer.

I'm off to a place where I will have to spend about a week sleeping not in a bed but on the floor, Anyone have any product ideas or suggestions that may make the time on the floor more comfortable? I hate to say this but I know already of the egg shell type foam mattress pad thing, I'm looking for something different than these as I just would rather buy one thick thing than several nearly think things. Savy? and thanks in advance!

The stains are relatively large, made by a male Rottweiler, and are a few months set-in. We were good about cleaning up the urine right away, but have procrastinated with the stains. I have decided to rent a professional carpet cleaner and just need to know what type of soap/agent to use. The carpet is a light beige in color. Thanks for your help!
