Tired of walking into your bedroom and seeing the same old thing, but don’t have the budget for a YouTube style makeover? Then it’s time to upgrade your bedroom design on a shoestring budget. Here are some great ideas to reinvent your cosy bedroom.

Moving around your furniture is a simple, yet effective upgrade. Re-position your bed against the wall that’s opposite your window to experience the refreshing morning sunlight. You can also try breaking up the space with a folding screen to create multi-functional areas.

Reuse furniture and decor from other rooms in your bedroom design. If you have extra, but unused seating in the living room, bring it to your bedroom and hang a simple pendant light to create a cosy reading spot. Alternatively, you could also turn a few old crates into a lovely accent table. Check out Nutcase, Basant and Kapoor Lights for some nice options for pendant lights and table lamps.

Transform an unused wall into a feature wall, to upgrade your bedroom design. Paint it a different accent shade, or opt for wallpapers for an inexpensive, yet effective statement of luxury. Wall decals are also a fantastic budget-friendly option for modern homes. You can check out wall decals from Gloob Decor and Wall Design. Alternatively, Artisan and Talking Textures have nice wallpapers to choose from.

Storage is essential for a good bedroom design, but your choices must also complement the aesthetic. Clever pieces of furniture that also double as storage can free up a lot of room. For instance, some ottomans and poufs allow you to store extra blankets and pillows within. You can also add a versatile piece of furniture like a chest of drawers.

String lights or scented candles can make a huge difference to your bedroom design. You can also add a little extra lighting in your bedroom to make it feel brighter. Strip lights under your bed or behind the headboard can lend an opulent aesthetic. You can purchase LED strip lights from Philips at an affordable rate.

Replacing knobs on your wardrobes and dressers can immediately change the vibe of your room. Sleek, modern knobs work well for contemporary homes, while a metallic or antique finish suits most homes with a lot of woodwork.

Plants are a great way to incorporate colour and life into your bedroom design. Simple succulents or cacti are hardy plants that require very little maintenance. On the other hand, good quality imitation plants are also excellent alternatives!
