BEDROOM REFRESH: WEEK ONE

BEDROOM REFRESH:WEEK ONE
Bedrooms are happy places. A place to unwind and relax! So I thought I’d refresh my son’s room, which doubles as a guest bedroom when necessary! It’s not an easy task to create something that can be used for my son and guests. The most challenging part is to complete the task within a budget of $100. I decided to focus on the bedding for the refresh since that’s an area I don’t think you can ever go wrong with. I like to keep things simple, with crisp white sheets. I’ll keep it classic with a cozy throw and tons of throw pillows. I am loving the color combinations in this bedroom.

What’s so special about our bedroom is the coziness of the sitting area! To keep costs down I have two chairs that my daughter wanted to dispose of, but I quickly salvaged them for the sitting area. This helped save on much of my costs for accessories and bedding.

Most of my inspiration came from Pottery Barn. I was able to find some killer deals at Ross Dress for Less for $5.00 pillow, a blue throw for $10. The checkered material for bedding at Discount Fabric for $20.00… Total so far is $30.00!

Where would you spend your costs if you only had $100 to spend on a bedroom refresh?

I want to thanks Erin from Lemons lavender & Laundry and for organizing this four-week fun $100 challenge…P.S  Stop by and visit more challenges from these talented bloggers.

  5. I love the pieces you already have in there! Can’t wait to see how you add more texture and layers. I bet it IS tricky creating a boy’s/guest room!

    1. Thanks Kathy,, its very tricky because my son is very laid back, but I don’t want it to be girly wither, the maps on the wall he loves! So its having a coastal hotel vibe.

  6. I can’t wait to see how this turns out, Maria! Your inspiration and choices are a perfect balance – a bit masculine but still soft for a guest room. Excited!

    1. Thanks Kim, its crazy trying to make this bedroom suitable for both my son and guests, but its only used when we get lots of family in that he goes and sleeps on the couch. He is a trooper. Most of the time its his bedroom.
