Organise Your Bedroom



Are you tired of looking at your same old bedroom? Many kids and adults have wanted a change in scenery where they sleep and put their heads on. However, lots of times you simply do not have enough money, or you do not have anything at all. In that situation, what are you supposed to do? Read this blog for some very helpful tips on how to organize your bedroom furniture.
1.      Make plans - Search online for some best ideas and designs. Like you wish you had a couch in your bedroom. Don’t you need a reading room or a study area? Look for some decorative pictures that can give you inspiration on how to do.
2.      Find few free things – Find free cycle within your area or ask friends and relatives for their old items. Ask for some old clothes and sheets for fabric. Go to some nearby garage sales. Often they sell boxes with many free items that may be used for decorations. Ask for old swatch books at a nearby wallpaper store or some old carpet swatches at the furniture stores.
3.      Re-arrange and add furniture - Create space by placing your bed against the wall and by adding comfortable chair for reading. If you have furniture at other places in the home, such as bookshelves in living room, then move it to your bedroom for a change.
4.      Make some pillows - Make big pillows from small pillows. It should be large and thick pillows against the wall behind your bed in order to create some sort of couch. Sew old and small t-shirts together and stuff it with cotton or even more t-shirts to re-use old clothing.
5.      Make own curtains - However drape fabric over the top and the down side of a curtain rod. Slide the valance and swag over the curtain rod. Add little ruffle. Do not forget to add fabric loops instead of curtain rings. Use expensive small hooks and pegs or even some doorknobs to hang and tie these curtains in place.
6.       Make some decorations - Make arrangements of dried grass and wild flowers that you found on the roadside. Cover the lampshade and make some decorative mats or even a bureau scarf. Make jewellery trees for your dresser to look pleasant. Arrange dry branches in a vase and place nearby to your bed. They do not necessarily need a frame to put on walls. Attach them to the wall with some of your common pictures. Make mobile of knick knacks in order to hang from your ceiling. This will add a mix of fun and tropical atmosphere to your bedroomfurniture.

Decorate Your Own Bedroom



Sometimes parents just would not give in and buy some beautiful looking lawn decor for the coming winter. Do you still want to be in the festive mood and want to buy bedroom furniture? Then this blog is right for you!
1.      Get some leaves, strings of leaves or even single leaves that are available at new stores or any other craft stores at very cheap prices during winter. Now string the leaves around the bookshelf or the window or maybe even scatter some on the desk in your bedroom. This way it is cheap and easier way to bring some of winter festivity to your own bedroom. If you do not want to buy leaves then print some templates out and make one on your own.
2.      Buy indoor or outdoor lights if you may afford it. There is a spooky Halloween theme lights available at Stallions or Walmart for around 7 to 20 dollars. They will look beautiful at night around your head board or around the bedroom door. These may be little expensive but you can look in to thrift stores for more bargains. Also make sure you have your parent’s permission.
3.      Buy some of the Jack-be-little. Jack-be-little is small and is a miniature pumpkin. These are very cheap at a farmers market. These come around for 50 cents each. They do look extremely cute when just randomly placed in your bedroom or on a night stand. Also squeeze some lemon juice on them so that they do not rot.
4.      Gel the window clings which are a must! These are extremely cheap in terms of dollar bins at Stallions and are usually around one dollar for a pack of gel clings. Do put some on the window or on the mirror. They do add some festivity to your bedroom - as easy as pie!
5.      Make some paper ghosts. Roll up the paper and then glue it so that it comes together as a small tube. Then use paper glue to attach some of the tissues or the crepe paper in order to make it look ghostly. Draw a face and you are all set. Also add some glitter to it if you want. Put them on the desk or a nightstand for some ghostly winter décor.
6.      Candles are Fun coloured and tiny candles can really add some spooky lighting effect to your bedroom. Stallions offer coloured and unscented candles at very low prices. If you want something to really scent your bedroom then try Bath and Body Works candles or the Yankee Candle. Though they look pretty costly and they smell delightful to offer warm pumpkin winter time smells.
Add some cushions using bright colours like orange and green that make huge difference and adds up a cosy feel to your bedroom. This way you can add up complement to you bedroom furniture to look good in the room.
