Creating a Bedroom Makeover on a Budget | Your bedroom is arguably the most important room in your home. It's the place you finish every day in, curled up in bed and ready to get some much needed sleep. But the chances are, your bedroom doesn't look as nice as you would like it to, which is a shame - because giving it a fresh new look doesn't have to cost a fortune.
The first step is to decide on a colour scheme. If you have accessories you would like to keep - such as a duvet set for example - you can pick one of the colours in the bedding to use on the walls. Paint is the cheapest option when it comes to decorating, and if your walls aren't in good enough condition you can buy some cheap lining paper to hang first before painting over the top of it.
You might also want to think about changing your bedroom furniture. Look out for special deals or end-of-line offers, as these can enable you to buy new furniture for a fraction of what you would normally pay for it.
The same applies to discount beds. Your bed will be the main feature in the room, but you can buy a cheap bed that still looks good and will last for years. Keep an eye out for any bargains locally and look online as well - you can often buy cheaper this way, especially from companies that only trade online.
There are plenty of ways that you can spruce up your bedroom for a minimal cost if you pay attention to what accessories you are using. You can make your bed look more luxurious by purchasing lots of different styles and sizes of cushions in similar colours to pile up on it.
You can also make your bedroom look bigger by being creative with your storage needs. If you have a lot of blankets and spare pillows that you don't always need, consider buying a bed which has built-in storage underneath. These aren't much more expensive than a normal bed, and they are a cheaper option than buying more items of furniture separately to fulfill your needs.
You will find that once you have repainted your bedroom it will instantly look fresher and more appealing. New accessories can be bought over time if you wish - keep an eye out for sales items in the shops, and think about replacing lampshades rather than buying a whole new lamp. It's often the smaller touches that make the biggest difference.
When you have your brand new bed and other items of furniture in place, it will be easier to revamp your bedroom in future, just by changing the accessories as and when you feel like altering the mood of the room a little.
All of which means your budget makeover will last long into the future - giving you even better value for money.
