Hi Basically i need to make some bedroom decorations as i don't have much money, I have a few photos and the negatives from the film, colorful paper clips, fabric, urban graffiti cards and a lot of white walls and places to put things.
I have no idea where to start and am looking for some good craft projects.
anything would be good :) id like to make use of the photos, but don't just want to stick them to the walls, want to create something interesting.

My favorite is :
http://www.doverpublications.com
They have all types of books, including craft books & very affordable. And if you are still having problems locating something, email me & I'll give you my other email address.
I taught arts & crafts for many years.
My daughters are away at school & I get emails from all their friends asking for help just like this.

Take a piece of plywood or other large piece of wood , i.e. 18X24. Lay a piece of batting on the wood and a piece of the fabric, cut 4 inches larger than the wood. Stretch the fabric to the back and staple it down on all four sides. Get a roll of ribbon from Hobbly Lobby, Joann's or Michael's that coordinates with the fabric and make a diagonal grid on the "bulletin board" spacing the ribbons about 4 inches apart. Hammer tacks on the front of the board where the ribbon intersects.
You can tuck pictures or memorabilia behind the ribbons. You can also make these smaller, 10x10 or so, and make multiple ones using different fabrics to cover more wall space.

wikihow is a great site to start
make origami or someother thing YOU are interested in
also shelves and organizational things are a good place to start decorating ur walls u can get plain wooden ones and decorate them urself
buy some tempra paint for $5 and take a large paintbrush and splatter ur walls, great effect, low cost and fun, call some friends over to help =)

use the fabric and make a "curtain" sort of thing but pretend the curtaian is drwn back, tie it back with ribbons or clip it. In the middle, beneath the curtain top put your pics.... you can make frames out of constrauction paper. good luck!

With fabric, make flag garlands and string them up.
