I moved into My new room yesterday, it's excellent, if a bit tiny. The only problem is it's a not very nice very light yellow colour (somewhere about this sort of color), and it has a very high ceiling so all the walls look very barren and sparse right now. So I need suggestions of things to do to make my room look brighter. I'm probably going to put some shelves in, so I can stick my books and stuff on that long wall and break it up a bit, and maybe a pinboard, but it'll still look very white.
So I need suggestions of ways to make it look brighter and less emptier. Suggestions that don't involve irreversable things done to the room (screws are the limit really). And while posters are good, too many scare me.

But posters are boring. Plus good posters are hard to come by.
personally I like doing things the retro and girly way - cover you're ceiling with glostars from the gaget shop, get a UV light, and voila. It isn't bright, but definately funky. And the girls love it.
Yes but you have to live in a girls room.
Do what I do and just pick up crap from magazines etc. Got some virgin guy showing his ass.
Yep Virgin Mobile.
I can't even remember the fight scene!!
Also, why don't you just take a picture of your room and put it up instead of making a diagram of it??
And what's that wierd thing between the CD tower and the door?
Here's a tremendous idea for home decor (so tremendous we did it in our very own living room): buy a whole lot of instant noodles, the ones with the strangest most exotic looking packets, eat the noodles, save the packets and press them in a big heavy book for a wee while, buy some large frames from Ikea for 2 quid each, arrange the pressed noodles packets in a pleasing pattern within the frames and hang them on the wall. Instant exoticism!!
Mmmm oriental wall hangings. So much better than pressing flowers.

Posters will do the job nicely.
