How to Makeover Your Guest Bedroom for Cheap!

yellow-themed bedroom with white shutters and green corner plantThe time came to renovate your home and so you began upgrading and demolishing, styling and fixing. After a while, you ran out of steam (and money) on your renovation project, except it was not yet complete. After pouring all of your time, energy and resources into the main areas of your home, you’d discovered that some very key areas had been left untouched.

 

In this article, we’ll take a look at how to makeover your guest bedroom without spending too much money.

Fixing the Furniture

Furniture can make or break a room, which is why it has to be acknowledged during the makeover.

 

Rearrange It

You want to make over a room, but you don’t want to go searching for new furniture. Don’t worry – simply rearrange it. Change the position of the items in the room, potentially bring in some furniture from other rooms that you have renovated.

If you have a bookshelf, rearrange its contents. Even the smallest touches can make a room shine. Consider adding a personal touch: a small vase, artworks, photos. Your guests will appreciate the effort you put into the room and it won’t cost you anywhere near as much as completely remodelling it.

 

Plump the Bed

Whenever people enter a bedroom, the first thing they see is the bed. This is no surprise considering its size and location. If you want to makeover your guest bedroom, you’re going to have to focus on the key piece of furniture within it: the bed.

Making the bed look inviting and comfortable will give the whole room a completely different feeling. Change the sheets and add a neutral coloured duvet. Then to really make it pop, add some splashes of colour with cushions or pillows; these can come from other parts of the house or you can make them yourself.

 

Update the Blinds

 

Rooms depend on light, and one of the best ways to make a guest bedroom pop without altering too much is changing the amount of light that comes in. This could be done through adjusting internal lights, such as lamps, but it is best to take an external approach, by regulating how much sunlight comes in.

 

Guest bedrooms should have modern blinds to allow light to come in, but not so much light that the bedroom is completely soaked in it. The aim is to make the bedroom appear warm and inviting, but not as open as a lounge or kitchen.

 

If there’s one thing you should update in your guest bedroom, it’s the blinds, either by replacing them or giving them a new coat of paint. If your guest bedroom previously had curtains, consider adding blinds to give it a modern finish. By spending a little, you can make the whole room feel brand new.
