You can get all sorts of things everywhere. I'm trying to do the same thing for my room. A lava lamp is always fun. You will want to get interesting colors and shapes to put in your room, like on a table or a wall. I went to Claire's and got a jewelry holder that looks like a guitar and has some swirls and things poking out of it. Just remember to center on your interests in your room. Hope I helped!

To make your room look funky and retro you should choose a pattern of polka dots, stripes, plaid, or tie-dye. Those were really popular back then. Also choose bright colors such as firetruck red, bright orange, sunshine yellow, candy apple green, sky blue, or plum purple. Chocolate brown, black, and white look good along with some of those bright colors. www.pbteen.com is a good website with bedroom ideas.

good luck
i hope this helps

im doin the exact same thing this summer.
a real "in" thing right now to do to your room is have very vibrant colored walls, then white furniture. it looks really mature and stylish. my room, for example, will have 2 shades of violet on my wall with a big white bed and desk. also things like bookshelves, mirrors, blown-up pictures, etc. nailed to the wall look really good.

good ideas there
