    WWW I have an idea and need help on it

    Here's how i want to decorate my apartment:

    Rainforest with a asian ambience

    I know that i want to use fake plants and various green as my theme, but i don't know if i can paint the walls in my apartment. Does any one have any ideas that involve anything but painting?

    I don't know how big your living room is, but I know some people at the dorms at my old college would put fabric on the walls. I don't remember what they put to make it stick, though. Seems like it was liquid starch in a can or something.

    My fave place to go for home decor ideas:

    Ive gotten sooo many ideas. Most that are very inexspensive and look great.

    My personal suggestion is a nice couch cover and some colorful pillows. Always brightens up a room.

    YES! Liquid starch!!! Get some fabric and "paint" the starch on the back like wallpaper. then you put it up..just like wallpaper..and "paint" the starch on over it! When you move, it'll just peel off!

    Rainforest with an Asian ambiance...hmmm. Brings to mind some bamboo and/or rice paper accents. Sounds really tranquil.

    Why do you want to use fake plants? You can grow some lovely ones indoors.

    I am not that good with raising a lot of plants. So i wanted to have a majority of fake plants, along with a few real ones.

    Bamboo is very easy to maintain indoors. You just put it in a container with a couple inches of water, and touch up the water once a week so it doesn't go dry. I am notorious for murdering plants, but I've been very successful with bamboo. It does have to be near a window, though; it needs sunlight.

    Lots of bird sounds in the background, including the laughing kookabura, and an occasional thunderstorm/rainstorm sound lasting for hours. Oh, and heat, steam and humidity galore plus the smell of decaying vegetation. Not to mention the sound of a hunting tiger about once every 2-3 days.
    I loved going to strip clubs; I actually made some friends there. Now things are different for the clubs and for me. As a result I am not as happy.

    Customers are not entitled to grope, disrespect, or rob strippers. This is their job, not their hobby, and they all need income. Clubs are not just some erotic show for guys to view while drinking.

    NOTE: anything I post here, outside of a direct quote, is my opinion only, which I am entitled to. Take it for what you estimate it is worth.

    Split leaf philodendrons are almost impossible to kill. Just water it. I have one that is HUGE now, and it is very tropical looking with big leaves.

    I love the fabric and spray starch idea! That is great.

    You could also get some 1" x 1" peices of wood, and paint them black. Use some glue and staples and make a grid pattern out of the wood. Staple muslin fabric to the back and then trim the edges. If you hang this on your wall like a picture, it will look like the paper walls of Japan. Use some very light wood (or MDF that you can get at Home Depot- Cheap). You can easily handle the whole thing yourself, and completely cover a floor to ceiling section of wall...or an entire wall.
