A weekend project: how to renovate a bedroom in two days. Master Class

With the arrival of the new season, we acutely feel the need for changes: in the wardrobe, in the menu and, of course, in the familiar interior environment. But what if there is simply no effort, time and extra funds to make drastic changes. We will tell and show about this using the example of a bedroom..

We want to convince you: changes are necessary and possible even with the use of insignificant investments, and to find out how – read on.

Different ways to update your bedroom

Before you change anything in the bedroom, stop and consciously weigh the following nuances:

Wall surface capabilities. If they have recently been pasted over with wallpaper, you should leave the dyeing venture. But the faded drawing just needs to be replaced, for example, with a clean, beautiful shade of paint.
Number and weight of furniture. Often, completely unnecessary bulky items are placed in the bedroom. Think, perhaps, for a significant transformation, you just need to remove excess from the room, in particular, an old heavy cabinet.

Seasons. With the arrival of the cold season, you can even visually insulate the bedroom, that is, hang blackout curtains, change the light rug with a large soft carpet, cover the bed with a bedspread with long fluffy pile.
Fragrances. Use incense in the form of smoking sticks, choosing warm aromatic scents: cinnamon, coffee, tangerine and cloves.

Combine different prints and textile textures

A simple, and most importantly, affordable way to change the look of the bedroom is with new bedding, a stylish bedspread and several decorative pillows.

Many of you, we are sure, already have a similar autumn – winter set, which is put into the closet until the next season with the arrival of spring. But if there are no such items, head to the fabric store to select a small piece of felt or knit for pillows, or faux fur with an animal print..

When the time for handicrafts is too short, we recommend visiting specialty shops that sell home decor. There you will find not just beautiful, but cheerful designer textiles – what you need for autumn.

Be decisive: in textiles, give preference to non-standard patterns, geometric patterns and animal color.

Decorate the walls with eye-catching paintings

Juicy colors have not spoiled anyone’s mood, on the contrary, they contribute to its improvement. Decorating a bedroom with colorful panels is a pleasure, we only advise you to do it carefully, thinking about the harmony of color combinations of the painting with the main environment of the bedroom.

♦ Decor feels best like decorating clean, neutral walls that do not go in opposition to the abundance of bright colors..

♦ You may have been confused before about where to define the abstract work of an artist you know. But designers are increasingly decorating the most expensive interiors with such things..

Advice: Use a large colorful panel or painted canvas as an unusual headboard, a niche or wall decoration, or just a floor decor.

Set the color

Many of you, one way or another, prefer neutral shades in interior design, believing that it is a soft scale that is appropriate in a room like a bedroom. We dare not disagree, but sometimes, nevertheless, you can move away from the usual framework and try something more daring, even innovative. For example, paint one of the pieces of furniture (cabinet, chest of drawers, coffee table, bench) in one of the colors of the rainbow.

A radical solution to change the look of a bedroom in two days can be local painting of the walls. You will need one or two small cans of paint, one wall and a good mood to make the room look fresh and new..

White bet

If you don’t know what to do, use white: in textiles, decor, furniture. It is known that this color can be combined with any other shade, making the room light, elegant and always relevant..

Hang up snow-white tulle, arrange white ceramic vases and figurines, and spread airy bedding. All this, combined with pure color, will help to quickly refresh the bedroom and fill it with air..

White things that decorate the bedroom make an incredible impression if the contrast for them is dark blue, chocolate, wine shades of walls and furniture.

Decorate with fresh flowers

Not window sills, but the room as a whole, of course, if there is enough daylight in it. Place a wooden planter with a tree plant on the floor, decorate the bedside table with a lemon or coffee tree, and if the bedroom has shelves, you can place pots of decorative peppers on them.

Living plants will look very decorative in the bedroom if you choose the right containers for them..

Advice: When choosing, be guided by the style of the room, so ceramic pots will organically fit into the interior of a Provence-style bedroom, and metal buckets with plants will decorate a modern, not too pretentious bedroom.

Change your wallpaper

We are not talking about a complete replacement of the existing wallpaper, but about a partial update, the so-called batch application on a selected area. Act in an original way, use wallpaper with an unusual floral pattern, birds or animals, dense geometric patterns.

It is these motifs that have been the most popular in wallpaper design for several seasons. At the same time, it is not at all necessary to visit expensive salons to purchase the coveted roll. Go to a construction hypermarket to buy a decent analogue at an affordable price.

If you act skillfully, you can spend one day to paste over the desired wall (opening, niche, panel), and another one to dry it thoroughly.

Play with the light. Master Class

The easiest way, without a doubt, is to buy a new lamp, or several, depending on how much and the quality of light in the bedroom you need. But buying a decent chandelier, floor lamp or a pair of decorative lamps can be very expensive. Therefore, you should think about how to create a new original lamp from an outdated model with your own hands using materials at hand.

We bring to your attention a master class on updating a table lamp using unusual balsa wood.

balsa – a tree that grows in South America, when dry, it is very soft and light. The extraordinary properties of this type of wood have been appreciated since antiquity, and now it is used, in particular, for the manufacture of high-quality surfboards and table tennis rackets. In addition, rescue water equipment is produced from balsa, and is used in layout and decor..

So, to create a stylish table lamp you will need

♦ balsa ribbons;

♦ table lamp with a shade;

♦ hot glue gun

Step 1

Take two tapes and glue them, respectively, along the top and bottom edges of the lampshade.

Step 2

The next thing to do is to start intertwining the ribbons, gluing them with different ends to the upper and lower edges of the lampshade, but so that they do not completely adhere to it..

Step 3

Make sure that during operation the ribbons completely hide the base of the lampshade

Step 4

Hide the ends of the tapes, securing the result with glue.

You have got an extraordinary item for decorating and transforming your bedroom interior.
