Answer 1

Neutral tones are especially practical in the world of decoration because their neutrally means they can easily be teamed up with other colors. Warm colors make a room seem smaller and more homey, a place where we can retreat to unwind.

There are many techniques for increasing the expressiveness of the walls and for making your home a place where you feel at ease. Many neutral tones are associated with natural materials, stone, earth, wood, straw, sand or with artificial materials such as metal, glass, and concrete.

Here are ten household helpful hints for choosing colors and wall covering fabrics to decorate your home:

1. White and neutral tones are an ideal backdrop to make a work of art or tapestry stand out.

2. Neutral tones should be applied when a space is overloaded architecturally, or when we want something to fade into the background.

3. Neutral tones age well so they can be used where you do not redecorate, or touch up, very often; or if our intention is to specifically create an aged effect.

4. Variations on neutral tones are ideal for small rooms.

5. White and neutral tones are a great way of combining different decorative styles as they act as a neutral transition zone between one style and the other.

6. Gray metal or gray concrete, two neutral tones, are especially apt for creating modern ambience with a cutting edge feel.

7. Textured neutral tones, like limestone or temperate paint, are perfect for creating rustic effects.

8. Neutral tones fabrics, carpets, curtains, or tapestries are a great help when decorating because they go well with al the colors.

9. If you want a room steeped in neutral tones to be livelier, you can introduce a few dramatic color touches dark colors, even black, are a good solution.

10. A neutral tone is perfect for painting a wall or doors that you want to be inconspicuous.

Paint can go a long way to change the look and feel of a room.

The above website also has "Paint a room" where you can chose a room picture and play with the paint colors you want. I used it when I was trying to chose colors for my living room. Despite it being small I went with dark colors: Deep true blue, crimson, pale yellow, vivid green. It looks very dramatic and wonderful.

Also remember less is more... if you don't need something in the room all the time then remove it! Make one wall a focal point to draw the eye to the end of the room.
If you have low ceilings you might want to think about painting them. Not necessarily the whole celling though. I did a "border" along the edge of the celling the same color as my walls so it draws the eye up and the white looks like a cut out.

Chose furnishings that let the eye travel over or past them. Glass top tables, armless chairs, etc.

To be honest, that's too "babyfied" for 5th grade. That poster would be more fitting in a Kindergarten or First grade classroom. These are fifth grade students, meaning that it's your responsibility to get them ready for middle school, which won't look like that. If this isn't your first year teaching fifth grade, stick to what you used last year. If this is your first year teaching fifth grade, contact the school to see if you can call any of the other teachers and get some tips.

Answer 4

You can paint your room with bright color, try to choose bright color for all the furniture you have and don't choose big furnitures...

If it's possible you can have 2in1 furnitures, like a bed with some drawers bellow it or a chair than can be a hidden storage device. If you know what i mean...with extra hidden storage you can put more stuff in your room without relly seeing the stuff...coz they are hidden there on your secret storage.

Answer 5

put a mirror opposite a window... and always use lighter colours. dark colours make it feel closed. light colours make it look very open and spacious. also just have minimal furniture in the room, or just smaller furniture. for example a small table or bed instead of a large one. that also creates more space and gives the illusion of a larger area. good luck

Answer 6

well what you can do is invest in mirrors that are about 5 x 5 in length or larger and place them from ceiling to floor.
it will give the dimension that your room is actually bigger than it is. it has something to do with the illusion of some sort.

but I know nothing about wallpapers, I personally HATE them.

Answer 7

If the room is rectangle, one of the smaller wall to be painted
contemporary much darker than the other two long wall.
Put large mirror on the third wall.

Answer 8

Answer 9
