Redecorating Bedroom – If your bedroom needs a change, but you don’t have a lot of dollars to spend, don’t worry! It’s easy to redecorate your bedroom on a budget with these easy tips.
One of the easiest ways to freshen up the look of your bedroom is to simply rearrange it. It’s also the cheapest! Try moving the furniture so that it emphasizes the best features of the room. If you have large windows, don’t cover them behind bulky furniture. Built-in features like fireplaces or ceiling beams should be highlighted by your furniture and décor, not hidden!
After you rearrange, try some new bedding! The bed is usually the focal point of the bedroom so it should highlight the changes you’re making. New sheets, dust ruffles, shams and duvets can be expensive! If you’re working with a limited budget, don’t think you need to purchase a whole new bed set. Update the bedding you have by changing just your duvet and shams. You could also purchase new throws. Decorative pillows and blankets change the look of your bed without the cost of new bedding.
Painting is one of the best ways to update the look of a room. Repainting is a great start to revitalizing the look of your bedroom. Painting is inexpensive and can breathe new life into a room. If your bedroom is small, it’s a good idea to use a light colored paint. Lighter colors reflect more light, making the room seem larger. Dark colors absorb light and tend to make spaces seem smaller. Remember: always choose your paint color after you pick your textiles. It’s much easier to match paint to a fabric than it is to match fabric to paint.
Don’t stop after you paint the walls. Giving your furniture a fresh coat of paint or sanding down and re-staining wood furniture makes for an easy weekend project that will make your bedroom look brand new.
Once you’ve updated your color scheme with paint and new bedding, enhance it with a few accessories. Window shears are a great way to let natural light into the room without sacrificing too much privacy. Try hanging some in a coordinating shade. Reduce the amount of clutter in your room by clearing off some of the horizontal surfaces. In place of what was there, set out a few decorative vases, plants or photo frames.
Redecorating bedroom doesn’t have to break the bank! A few new pieces and a fresh coat of paint is all you need to revamp your space.
