DIY The Room
Mademoiselle Jo plans our her dream bedroom for this week's DIY The Room.
I created this list thinking about my dream bedroom. I want a style mixing coocooning and modern. I like the quiet atmosphère of neutral colors and the way the textures are mixed. In addition, i'd like to add a little peps, a wake up everything with some flashy touches and happy colors ! Within my selection i thought using wood, candles and pillows to illustrate the coocooning and modern part. My child aspect need funny accessories so i added an adventure book and candy storage with animals on the top !! :D (I really do love candy)

Here's a list of 10 how-to projects that can help you re-decorate your living room like Demi's living room from her house in California
Katie recreates the quirky and colourful room of Penny from the TV show, The Big Bang Theory.
I love Penny, i love the fact she swills Pinto Grigio and kisses cut Physicists all day. However, what i love more is her perfectly cute and eclectic bedroom. The clashing colours, funky home wares and plush fabrics really make it a cosy little haven. yes she may be a bit messy, but hey, when you are that cute....who cares! Although it may look at first glance to be more of a child's room, once you take a closer look you realise the stylist has very cleverly merged funky thrifty finds with classic design. Its a room that i want to look at (ahem...live in) all day!
Ursula from Home Made by Carmona recreates the elegant home of Brooke Shields.
Brook Shields home is a beautiful mix of traditional elements while curating rich eclectic pieces. I love how moody her spaces are without feeling stuffy or antiquated. The style of her home can be achieved by employing dark colors on your walls, and mixing the new with the old. Don't forget to bring in a variety of materials from beautiful wood pieces, to marble, to lucite, and don't forget that bit of brass or gold accents! Use these projects as a place to start, as each of these elements can easily be customized to become the style found in Brooke Shields home.
Victoria recreates the stylish home of Martha Stewart.
Weather you love Martha Stewart or hate her, you can't deny she's got decorating down pat. I've always been in love with her simple and classic decor style that always manages to include lots of natural light no matter what the room. It's hard not to imagine yourself snuggled up with a good book in most of her rooms, so it was with this in mind that I designed the Martha Sunroom.
Ashley from She Makes A Home recreates the look of Zooey Deschanel's room.
I first saw a little peek at Zooey Deschanel's home in a 2009 issue of Domino Magazine. I've always been a fan of Zooey's fashion sense, but I really like her home decor style as well. The room featured in Domino was her home studio space, filled with bold blue color, classic patterns, and framed art. It gave me a "Louis XVI-meets-the-1950s-in-the-future" kind of vibe, and that's the look I went with for my How-To picks. In this list you will find DIY projects that echo the general style, patterns, and projects that Zooey Deschanel might have used to decorate her studio space.
Eszter recreates the fairy-lit room of Sam from the movie Perks Of Being A Wallflower.
In the movie “Perks of being a wallflower” I immediately fell in love with Emma Watson’s character, Sam’s room. A bit of a rebel, a bit of a hopeless romantic, her room is glamorous, cosy, effortless and very-very chic. A perfect mix!
Amy from Stow & Tell U recreates a modern day version of Mary Queen of Scots room from Reign.
I love the TV show Reign and I've been waiting patiently for Mary to make it back to her homeland of Scotland. If and when she arrives, she is going to need a safehouse before she reaches the castle and this is what I would choose for her if it were my job to decorate her hideaway.
