|
Relaxation, Romance and
Comfort
A Bedroom makeover doesn’t have to be
expensive or hard. A few key decorating ideas can give a
bedroom a completely different feel. And chances are you
already have most of what you need at home. So have fun this
weekend with these easy steps to the perfect bedroom
makeover, and make your life a little sweeter.
Enchanting Bedroom Makeover:
Step #1
The easiest and best way to give your
bedroom makeover a romantic, elegant feel is to change the
wall colors.
To save money, why not mix a few colors that
you have lying around in the garage? If this means you’ll
only have enough color to paint one wall, that’s just fine.
Give every wall a different, though complimentary hue. If
you don’t have enough paint, check out the discount paint
section at your home improvement store. And don’t forget the
ceiling either.
Paint a square in the middle of it to create
the illusion of a tray ceiling. Here's my step-by-step
article on
painting a faux tray ceiling.

Step #2
Increase the elegance of your bedroom
makeover by giving character to the floor. Add a beautiful
accent rug to cover your carpet or floors. This will add a
plush feeling under your feet, as well as bring out the
highlights in your walls and ceiling.
Maybe there’s a rug in
another room that you can move to the bedroom? Check out
closeouts in home improvement and home decorating stores.
Have fun with your choice, but be sure it compliments your
walls.

Step #3
There’s no need to replace your
bedding with expensive new things. Reduce the cost of your
bedroom makeover by simply buying a beautiful set of sheets.
Buy an extra flat sheet to toss over your bed as a cover.
This will keep the bed fresh and inviting.
Add accent
pillows for beauty, but don’t overdo it. Let your bedroom
makeover be all about comfort, relaxation and romance.

Step #4
Add whimsical decorations to give
character to your bedroom makeover. Hang a wind chime at the
window, or a gauzy mosquito net over the bed. Add a water
fountain for the soothing sound of water and the purifying
scent of rain.
Finally, finish your bedroom makeover with
whimsical elements like fairy decor or dragonflies, shoes or
decorative keys, silk butterflies or lantern decor.
Enchanting Bedroom Makeover:
Step #5
Complete your bedroom makeover with an
electric fireplace and two small seats before it. To save
money consider building a mantle around a small fireplace,
or buy a mantle separately and install a cheap electric
fireplace unite in it.
Make the seats before the fireplace
bean bags for fun, or cheap wicker chairs for simple
elegance. Sitting by the firelight to read and chat will
become a favorite pastime.
