I originally planned to do a post on how to redecorate your bedroom for free until I realised that there were a lot of things I wanted to say but they actually costed money. So here is my ideas on how to redecorate your room on a low budget, emphasis on the low. Just to let you guys know that I'm not going to talk utter rubbish as this time last year, I completely changed my room, you wouldn't even recognise it now!
1. Pick a theme - you should pick a colour scheme or theme in your room. My room's colour scheme is red and white, with three walls being white and four walls red. A really great idea is to pick one wall to be a feature wall and it could have a different colour to the other walls. If you're on a super low budget, try checking if you have any pots of paints at home and you could use those.
2. Less is more - when choosing your wall colours, you should always remember that the colour(s) you pick have to be suitable for all seasons. Bright colours aren't advised as they are super distracting. If you're going minimalistic, try using neutral colours like whites, beige and creams.
3. It's all in the details - if you can't paint your walls completely, buy a small tester pot of paint. You could draw an outline of anything you like on your wall, eg. your name, and you could paint it on. Tester pots are really cheap and are around £2ish.
4. Move it all around - by simply moving your furniture, you could really change your room.
5. Mirror, mirror on the wall - whether you're a girl or a guy, we all need a mirror in our room. Small ones are really cheap or you could get a big one so you can see your whole outfit.
6. Shed some light - a lamp is really great to light up your room. If you have a bedside table, it's a good idea to put your lamp there so you can use it before you go to bed. Alternatively, you could put it on a desk.
7. Make it your own - select a wall or an area on a wall to personalize. In this area, you could add pictures/photos, posters and loads of things that give you good memories! On my wall, I have a couple of pictures of me and my friends/family, a couple of gig tickets and an autograph from the amazing singer songwriter, Passenger, you should all check him out!
8. Tick tock - add a clock to your room. It could be a totally cheap one to give your room a vintage/antique look or you could customise one by adding things around it!
I hope you found these tips useful!
