As I have talked about before in my Display YOUR Personality post , everyone has a unique way of displaying their individuality. I personally feel that interior design is definitely a form of fashion. It relies on balance and what is in and out. So if someone walked into my room, they could definitely get a taste of who I am.
My room is pink and orange. I started out with a comforter and went from there. It took me weeks to figure out how I was going to make my room unique and then weeks to actually do it. I ended up painting polka dots on one wall, using cardboard pizza inserts and butter dish lids as stencils. Then on another wall I painted diagonal stripes that I had to tape off. Underneath those I used magnetic paint so I can hang things on my walls. Although it’s not as strong as I thought it would be…
So my room sounds really bold, right? Well, I think that I do a good job on balancing the boldness with soft, feminine things. My room is my oasis that shows off so much of my personality, and changes as it does. I love my family and friends. I love the country. I love to read. I love to be creative. I love antique pieces, especially if they are glass. I love the beach.
I think that my room does a good job of showing all of these aspects of my personality. The photos, the cowgirl hat, the stacks of books, the glass dresser knobs, and the overall design of my room help to portray myself to the world. And the cool thing about it is, as you change, so can your room! But not many people get to see my room so I decided to share it with you guys!
So these pictures are only a split second of the past. And my room has definitely changed since they were taken. Maybe I have added or removed things. There are a few more clothes on the floor, along with my backpack and some other random stuff. Even this says a lot about me. That I’m either lazy, or was in a hurry this morning (probably a little of both), that I am a student, and maybe my life is a little hectic right now. But it’s my favorite place to be, no matter if it is messy or perfectly clean. It’s my masterpiece.

I would love to have my room look like that at college! I love fun colors and patterns. One small problem.....you can't paint a dorm room. And worst of all you can't get anything, I mean anything, to stay on the walls. I couldn't even get a little magnetic strip to stay up so I just gave up. Oh well, the bedding and rugs and little things are still fun.
