How to decorate a shared bedroom?

kids bedroom ideas for girls sharing image

knobby

Ok so I'm a 14 year old girl sharing a REALLY small bedroom with my 8 year old brother.Recently we were forced to moved out due to family problems. The only place my parents could afford at the moment is this extremely small.. 2 bedroom aparment. My old room was bigger then the master bedroom here. And now me and my brother have to share this really REALLY small room.

Basically what I'm asking is a way to rearange the furniture in our room and to organize and what colors to paint the walls and things like that. I want to make it look nice and presentable. The room is very oddly shapped and my bed frame and wood and color is different from his. Everything is mix and matched and placed in odd places in the room. We both have twin sized beds and we each have one night stand and i have a desk. I appriciate if you answer with a lot of detail. Thanks :)


Here I will just explain ( try to) how our furniture at the moment is placed if that will help.
Ok so you walk in and the first thing you see is my brothers bed against the wall vertically. On the right side of the door/ wall is a sliding door closet, the closet is the whole wall ( the people with aparments, hopefully you understand or have an idea or image of what I'm talking about) and Three feet in front of the closet is my bed. So when you walk in his is virtical and mine is horizontal and they kinda make a 'L shape' ( if that makes any sense.) Next to my bed is my night stand and on the same wall my head board is against is a window and theirs another one close to it on the wall my brothers headboard is against and under that window is my desk....... Ok I get that probably didn't make any sense.. Maybe it did idk.

If you didn't get that.... Then I'm sorry ._.

Answer
The L-shaped beds sound just fine.
You can decorate any way you like.Your style doesn't have to be like your brother's.
Or you could do a little mix and match.
Each of you pick a color for this bedding.Or you can both pick the same color but use different sheets.http://www.garnethill.com/elementary-comforter-26-sham/bedding-bath/kids-bedding/view-all-kids-bedding/306936?defattrib=&defattribvalue=&listIndex=2
You may not be able to paint but that gray sure looks nice.You can add a memo board to your side and even have some inexpensive paper lanterns hanging from the ceiling.http://www.lunabazaar.com/paper-lanterns.aspx?gclid=COT6m57_ubgCFZCe4AodFxcAvg

Don't give your parents any grief.They most likely didn't want to move either.This economy is difficult for all of us and we need to make changes to accommodate this.
Enjoy your room.

Having trouble getting a bedroom ready for two little girls to share?

Our house has 3 bedrooms and we are about to have our 3rd child. Buying a 4 bedroom house is not an option right now. So our son has his own room, but my daughter and they new baby girl will have to share a room. I am just having trouble fitting all their stuff in one room. I feel guilty moving my daughter's stuff over to make room for her sister's stuff, cause it's been HER room for 3 years now. Any ideas on how to organize better?

Answer
Put your son in the smaller room and spend some time ELIMINATING, not just organizing. Most people have too much crap. Unfortunately, with young children, storing UP is not only not very practical since they can't reach it, but also because it is a safety issue. You don't want a kid to try climbing a bookshelf or dresser and having it fall on them. In addition, consider making a storage area for lesser used stuff in your son's room. No reason why he should have complete exclusion in his space when nobody else does.
