Ideas to Upgrade Your Bedroom Without Buying A Thing

Revamping a bedroom doesn’t need to be an expensive endeavor – using existing items and creativity can often provide the most cost-effective and viable solutions.

Recycle old glass bottles and jars as decorative holders; use rattan baskets for storage; select colors that bring you joy while being affordable – these upgrades can create lasting changes in any space!

1. Rearrange Your Furniture

One of the easiest and least costly ways to give your bedroom an instant facelift is to change up its layout. Take a good hard look at all your furniture pieces to see which pieces don’t belong or can be relocated from another space such as an office.

Rearranging the layout of a room can make a dramatic impactful change on how it feels and provides an opportunity to repurpose a piece you love from another area of the home.

Layering bedding is another cost-effective way to update your bedroom. Start with new sheets in your favorite shade, adding texture with throw blankets and accent pillows – this simple switch will instantly elevate your bed!

2. Add a Rug

De-cluttering surfaces that tend to collect clutter is key to creating an organized bedroom space, says Heather Goerzen of Havenly. Heather advises Insider that when considering what items belong in each space that use flat surfaces “be sure only to keep those which add value or meet their intended purposes”, particularly nightstands and dressers which often accumulate stuff.

If your nightstand or dresser is littered with items that clutter the surface, consider layering woven baskets from Atlanta-based Atelier Davis to make your bedroom visually pleasing without breaking the bank. This simple DIY hack will instantly elevate your bedroom while adding texture-rich focal points without breaking your budget.

3. Declutter

One key part of maintaining an orderly bedroom is eliminating clutter that makes the space seem disorganized, according to home organizer Marine Andre of professional organization firm En Route to Joy. Start by taking inventory of what items you keep, making sure each one fits with your vision for the room – such as moving chairs that become catch-alls for clean laundry, dirty clothes you plan to wear before washing and even hats you plan to style next season elsewhere.

Organising your dressers, drawers and shelves can help eliminate visual clutter in the bedroom, while using storage baskets to store extra blankets will give the space a sleek appearance. Designating homes for each item helps prevent things from being misplaced which causes clutter build-up on surfaces.

4. Paint

Setting the atmosphere in your bedroom through paint is one of the easiest and most effective changes that you can make. Different colors evoke different emotions; select those that best represent you as an individual,” advises Nikki Klugh of Nikki Klugh Design Group in Omaha, Nebraska.

Enhancing your bedding is another effective way to quickly transform a space without spending much. Selecting sheets and pillowcases made from fabrics that coordinate with your design scheme will instantly elevate it, instantly elevating the room.

If your room contains wood furniture that could use some TLC, try painting it for a cohesive look. Refinishing an inexpensive dresser in an eye-catching hue while adding special drawer pulls can instantly revitalize the piece and bring new life.

5. Switch Out Your Lighting

If you’re feeling stuck when it comes to bedroom decor, try shopping your own home instead of the store. Grab an inexpensive decorative pillow from the living room, add a bar cart from entryway or steal art piece from another space for quick updates – often this approach offers the most cost-effective means of refreshing bedroom aesthetic.

Another easy and cost-free way to upgrade your bedroom without purchasing anything is switching out its plain ceiling fixture for something eye-catching, from chandeliers to pendants – instantly adding style and adding instant panache!
