In this photo, designer Betsy Burnham filled this bedroom for a preteen girl with white bedding, a white rug and chair and white curtains, then added just one piece of furniture, a bit of paint and a few accessories in the girl’s current favorite color. The room can easily (and affordably) take on a new look if her taste in colors changes as she grows. (Associated Press photo)
