How can I make my bedroom look more mature?

Q. I'm gonna be 16 in a few days and I keep thinking my bedroom looks really childish. How can I make it look more mature? My walls are light yellow and the furniture is cream with wood accents. I love the bedrooms in Pottery Barn (but not PB teens!)
Unfortunately I'm not allowed to buy new furniture or paint/wallpaper my walls...

Answer
It's not the wall color or the furniture - it's the accents. First check out some design magazines for ideas, then look into new fabrics for curtains, bedspreads and throw pillows. Put the kid clutter (your sentimental stuff) into storage bins or decorated boxes (you can make your own by covering lidded boxes with wallpaper or contact paper) and put a plant in your room. A throw rug and chair can create an "adult" sitting area in your room.

Where can adult toys be hidden in the bedroom where kids can't find them?

Is there furniture or bedroom accessories out there that have hidden storage for valuables or adult toys?

Answer
You could go to a furniture store that sells chest. They have lots of room to stash all your magazines, videos, whips, & toys. Look for one that matches your decor style, but also has a good lock on the front. If the lock looks cheaply made, look up a lock smith. They may be able to upgrade or customize one on a chest for you aswell... just an idea
