Hey,
Choose your favorite design ex. stars or hearts. then take paint each wall a different color then paint each design a different color.

Good Luck,
Advicegodesses2

this is a really stylish way of doin your room:choose 1 colour, then paint 3 walls in that colour. then the biggest wall you should cover with a really nice wallpaper in the same colour as your other walls.ok, hope i helped.please rate me!

you could paint each wall a dif color but that would be tacky, just pick your favorite out of them all and then decorate your room with the other colors :)

let me know how it goes, and good luck!

I think that you should paint the walls the darkest color ( I am not sure what one that is) then take a plascit bag( Wal mart bag) Then scrunch up the bag and dip it in the green then the other colors! It's like sponge paunting but with a bag instead! It's cheaper and really color! My sister has her walls like that but with diffrent colors! I hope your room looks great in the end! :)

Stripe, Stripes, Stripes. Just Mix n Match the 3 colors to make stripes for ex. Blue and purple would look good with Lime green. Do stripes for only 2 walls and it has to be across from each other. The other two walls just paint it purple and blue. Happy Decorating Hun!

Why dont you try painting it purple and doing blue and lime green paint splatters or sponge stuff on there, my one friend did that and it looked totally cute =)

xfixatedlies answered Friday August 26 2005, 1:12 pm:
You could do Stripes on all your walls, or each wall a different color, or horizontal stripes, there are endless posibilities. Or you could paint all your walls one solid colors, say purple, and get a stencil and stencil different things on your walls with the blue and Lime Green paint :) Hope i gave you some ideas.

You could paint each wall a different color, and then stripe the remaining wall. One of my friends put big stripes on one wall, then checkers on the other, and painted her other walls with one color.

Calelizabeth14 answered Thursday August 25 2005, 5:52 pm:
I think that you should do stipes. I have that for my room. But i only have light green and light pink stripes. You could do big strips that are vertical beacuse it will take a shorter time to paint. Hope it helped.

karenR answered Thursday August 25 2005, 5:40 pm:
Splatter it. Cover everything in your room including the floor. Better yet move everything out if you can without much trouble.

This works best if you have a solid background wall color ( my daughters was white).

Open your paint one can at a time. Grab a brush. Get some paint on it. A good glob of it is good!
Now just kind of throw the paint on your brush at the wall. Anywhere, everywhere just splatter it. Looks really cool. Get a couple of friends, some old clothes and make a party of it! This is a really FUN way to paint your room, and makes it unique. :)

xXxpinky615xXx answered Thursday August 25 2005, 5:38 pm:
I personally am not 100% sure about the color choice of purple with blue and lime green, but hey it's your room.

Anyway- Why don't you try painting one wall purple, one wall blue, one wall green, and tape off stripes on the last wall and make it in stripes of all the colors? Not really thin stripes, but big thick ones, like a foot in width or something. That could be a cool idea :-) Or instead of doing the stripes, whichever color is your favorite, you can make it like this (just an example)

Purple
______
Green> | | <Blue
| |
|____|
^Purple


Or you can do 2 green walls, or two blue.


Whichever your prefrence. But have fun with it!!

How about stipes.. &hearts; Dez

Also you could paint two walls one color and two walls another color then like the wood around the dorr and real close to the floor paint it the third color that would also look real cute.. &hearts; Dez

sunnyville answered Thursday August 25 2005, 5:26 pm:
Walls could have shining stars,small roses,teddy bears,handbags,makeup cosmetics on them or other things you like.You could paint your walls with nice fancy zig-zags,cute curvy lines,shapes like clouds on then with the color blue surrounding it.You could also combine the colors together to see how it looks but first paint it on paper to see what color it will turn out to be.Or paint each different wall with a different clor like one side purple,other side blue,and the other one lime green.

XSugarPieX77 answered Thursday August 25 2005, 5:23 pm:
Ok, have the lime green run across the middle of your wall, in like a zig zag way, going up and down and up and down... then have purple on the top and blue on the bottom. Thats how mine is except, its different colors. It looks awesome... the zig zag line is sorta like one of those heartbeat lines. Hope I helped!

SAMzasis answered Thursday August 25 2005, 4:36 pm:
heh, really? Four walls eh? Oh man, I'm cold hearted as usual. Okay, so first off, do the coolest thing, and make swirls and swirls. That way, if you ever get.... insane, you won't know, cause your room would look swirly anyway. Or another cool things are stripes. Pick two of the colors, and keep making like different width size stripes horizontally in your room. Then with the other color left, make different sized circles. It's not weird; it's creative.

DancinCutie08 answered Thursday August 25 2005, 4:28 pm:
well do like 2 of your walls 1 color the other wall another color then the 4th wall make it like stripes or polka dots of the 3 colors then maybe do the 3rd color as an acent on the other 3 walls. also if you have a faulted ceiling it would look cool if you painted it 1 of the colors.
