Getting the Room Ready

This is when we take long hard look at the Room and some decisions have to be made. Purging is Never Pretty. LOL.  

If you also are contemplating getting rid of some items and possibly making a Little Money to help the Cost of the Refresh, consider selling your items on Facebook Marketplace.  I have done this for years and it has worked Great.  I am putting together a Post about how to Buy and Sell on Facebook Marketplace.  Be sure to check that out.  It will also cover the Safety Tips you need to know before buying and selling.

Now that we have a Clean Slate/Room.  Let’s lay what we call the “Foundation” of the Room. You could also call it the “Vibe” you want.  

Let’s Think About Color

We each have an our color palette; from our wardrobe to our walls in any given room.  Choose what makes you happy, calm or exhilarated.  It is the tone that you are trying to set for YOUR  Bedroom.  The emphasis is on You/Your. Following trends is OK but you have to live in that room for 365 days out of the year. Will it bring you joy?

The color of your walls and accents can make a huge difference in the overall feel of a room, so when it comes to decorating on a budget, consider sprucing up with paint. Painting is one of the most cost-effective ways to transform any space – and it’s easy too!

These are the colors I chose for my Bedroom Refresh.  

I am not very fond of painting myself and maybe you just might be the same.  For me painting is super tedious, and I am not very patient.  Keep in mind that you need to cover up and protect your stuff (flooring including), use painter’s tape, get all the nooks and crannies, and so on. Then “watch the paint dry”.  So, if you’re full-on and just lack the patience (like me) for this project because you might need multiple coats, and that could take tens of hours), then consider hiring a interior painting contractor this is always an option, it has been for me. I have hired out this job in the past and it saved my sanity.  But if you have the time and the patience, and you’re willing to do whatever it is that needs to be done, then by all means, you can totally just DIY it!

Choose colors that will evoke feelings of comfort and relaxation, like blues or greens. If you don’t want to commit to painting an entire wall or room, consider investing in some paint samples instead, then use these samples as accent pieces in your bedroom, such as by painting an old side table or dresser.

You can choose the perfect color palette for your space with bold hues or calming neutrals. Mixing textures is also key for making any room look more cozy and inviting. Think of adding different cushions, carpets or throws – all these elements will help bring personality into your room while elevating its style. Don’t forget about using natural elements such as plants and flowers which will add freshness and life into it too!

What Is Your Style?

Decide on a style: Before you start redecorating, decide on a style that you want for your bedroom. This will help guide your design choices and ensure that everything works together cohesively. You might consider styles like minimalist, bohemian, traditional, or modern for example.

As you can see from the image above of the bedroom, I tend to lean more towards clean lines with pops of color. It’s called Eclectic (wasn’t that a song at one time? Lol. Oh, it was….

THE ELECTRIC SLIDE

Man am I dating myself. What Eclectic means is: meaning that I like several styles. Don’t be alarmed. If you are as well a  variety of styles, we get the best of all worlds and we enjoy every bit of it.

I have put together a grouping of the decor items from my Bedroom image above. I have links if you’re interested in checking them out in detail.

Thrifting

Shop secondhand. Check out thrift stores, garage sales, or online marketplaces like Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist for affordable furniture and decor options.
