OK moved into my new flat and need to do something with my bedroom as its incredibly dull at present...

Plans are:

Freestanding headboard - any ideas? Needs to be cheap and stylish
Feature wall (wallpaepr) - anyone ever done this? would it look daft? Also how easy is it to put back to rights upon moving out?
Bedside table - need a cheap, stylish one with at least 2 draws - ideas?
Table lamp - pref touch, again need a cheap stylish one - inspiration
Roller blind (blackout) - something cheap again but with a cool design or eithe rjust plain and simple white/cream - ideas?
Shelf - want to add a shelf either to the windowsill (would need bonding that sealing - can that be undone?) or attached to the radiator (unde rthe window, unlikely to ever use) - any simple acrylic ones or soemthing about?
Ceiling lampshade - thinking just this (http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/70103410/) but any cheap stylish ideas?

Any help appreciated 0 struggling for inspiration thus far and IKEA website is proving less useful than i expected :/

Go into ikea and have a look at their rooms, rather than the website

Had a good trip to Copenhagen?

Rice paper lamp looks crap. Get something like this instead:

Bedside table, can't beat this at the price:
