If you've ever tried decorating your home with all the items you really want, you may have started to notice that it can become quite expensive to decorate a bedroom. It sort of stinks because most of us use our bedrooms for more than just a place to sleep. It's a place to get away, our paradise at home so to speak. It's the place we go to when we just want to get away from everything. But, you don't have to spend tons of money to make your bedroom your paradise retreat — there are actually quite a few ways we will be covering on how to decorate your room without spending a ton of money.
Bedroom Sets
Available in most furniture stores, these sets will usually include a bed frame, a night stand, a bureau for your clothes, and maybe an etagere or TV cabinet. Bedroom sets can get expensive, so it's important to shop around or find the same items individually. One of the most expensive things in the set is the bed frame, which is a shame — it's just wood with a box spring and mattress. To solve this problem, you can instead opt for platform beds on sale. These platform beds actually don't take box springs, just mattresses. This is how they are designed. They are also aesthetically pleasing to the eye and of great quality!
Clearance Furniture
I guess a lot of people assume that because something is in the clearance section it's because it's not of quality value, but this is rarely ever the case. A clearance item is on sale for one of three reasons: the item isn't selling as much as the manufacture had hoped; the manufacture is releasing new items and needs to get rid of the stuff they have now for spacial concerns; the furniture has already been lightly used and is in an "as is" section. These might be pieces that are missing a knob or drawer handle, or have a small nick somewhere along the surface.
Upholstery
If you have a sitting room or sitting furniture in your bedroom and you want to change the color or design, you don't have to buy brand new furniture. All you need to do is upholster it. You can either do this yourself or have someone do it for you. This might cost a few hundred dollars or less depending on how big the item is and how complex the upholstery is going to be. If you want to do this yourself for a much cheaper price, there are guides online. You can also choose the alternative option and buy a slipcover. These come in an array of designs, styles and colors and the "seam" portion that goes under your furniture is barely noticeable.
Paint Alternatives
A lot of decorators discourage painting an entire room, especially for small rooms. Instead, try adding simple touches to the room. For example, you can incorporate art to add color instead of paint. Or you could choose to buy a simple border (wallpaper) for the top of your wall. You can also choose various room accents and different ways to paint the room. Try different brush techniques such as sponge accents, which use less paint.
These are just a few of your options. By the way, when you do buy platform beds on sale, it's important that you find a place near you that can deliver. This is also going to substantially save you money on delivery charges. For example, if you live in New York make sure you find a mattress discounters New York or if you live in Florida find a mattress place in Florida. Some of these sites will even offer free shipping and handling if you are in the vicinity, so this is definitely something worth looking into!
