I am doing my daughters bedroom this month and she has requested the color hot pink on the wall with black trim and doors. The black scares me and and I wanted to know what you thought or if you can direct me somewhere for a visuial. One more note, she mentioned something about glitter over the pink using clear paint with glitter mixed in. Has anyone done this?

mother mayhem- Welcome to A2K! Very Happy

One thing that I DO know, is that bedroom walls need to be a quiet, soothing color, for the best restful sleep. Could you talk her into white walls, with hot pink and black accessories?

Pink can be nice for a girl's room, but I would choose another
color for contrast.

Hello Mother Mayhem... you can go to the Benjamin Moore website & play around with color samples on their sample rooms or on yours. If you just use theirs, you don't need to register.

Go to homeowner, then project notebook & you'll find the samples. You get choices for walls, trim & ceiling color. Have fun!

How about black for some of the furniture rather than on the trim? Hot pink could be really cute if you use the right accessories.

Piff, that Benjamin Moore site is great.

I just discovered that I'm going to need to paint my ceiling darker than I'd planned in my next project. Lighter/white woulda made the room look, well, icky.

Beth... if you knew how much time I spent playing around with Benjamin Moore, you'd be shocked. Wink

Same situation...
Hey all,
Just searched and found this post from mother mayhem, two months later! Although, i still have the same situation..though the roles are reversed and im the daughter who wants to paint her room some wacky colours! Just wondering if mother mayhem still comes onto the site, and was wondering if you agreed on those colours with your daughter. I dont know how long i have wanted to paint my room black and pink (my two favourite colours) but whenever i bring up the topic to my own mother, she acts as if im asking for the impossible. Just wondering how your daughters bedroom went, and if you could please email me at:
Xx_icaughtfire_xX@hotmail.com
it would be much appreciated. Thanks.

hey
Hey..I just recently painted my room tooty fruity pink on the walls and black on the ceiling. It looks AWESOME! It took a lot of begging though but it very comfortable to "chill" in with my friends. Although it is going to be a pain to remove it off the walls it looks sooo cool! My mom even agreed that she liked my room which was something I never thought I would hear from her because she like nuetral colors. Anyway if you would like to see pictures just email me and I can show you how it turned out! m_shields_@hotmail.com
sincerely,

Meghan
