Decorating My Room for $20

RE: Decorating My Room for $20 By melapril (Guest Post) Well, you should go to the craft store and buy some black and white roses for like 10 bucks. and you can spend the other 10 buying some hot throw pillows at the dollar store or a discount store. Or you could spend 20 bucks buying a cool lamp and a bead curtains from discount stores. Maybe add some pink in your new room by posting pic's of you and your friends in funky frames randomly around your room. Think you should really just use what you have and save your money up to buy what you really want for your room like maybe a cool 17 bedspread!

Thrift stores are the way to go.

You'll be surprised at the paints people return to the store... I'd be tempted to pain the walls a shade of pink or dusty rose..

Try to take a picture to show us when you've finished....we'd love to see what you've done. I know you'll have fun creating your own environment!!! Another thing, this can be an ongoing project so you can add things to the room as you go.

Someone else also could not paint their walls so she took a colorful LARGE flat sheet and saturated it with liquid laundry starch, wrung it out (gently) and then smoothed it on her wall like wallpaper! When the time came to move I believe she misted it with water and pulled it off the wall with no damage. She probably had to wash the wall but that's a minor inconvenience. That information is on "Thrifty Fun" somewhere. Posted on 12/30/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Decorating My Room for $20 By Zylo (Guest Post) I agree with Angelique. The black and white look is very attractive. I say paint the furniture black and maybe use the canvas as an "accent wall." Dye some of your linens black. To tie in the curtains, buy some matching fabric and use it around the room. You may even be able to find a matching dye to do accent pillows or something. Or do a completely black and white room with all bordeaux colored accessories: lamps, pillows, tablecloths, anything you can paint or dye.

Meijers department store in my area had a whole line of decor that was black and white, very pricey. All of which can be copied with some black paint. With the canvas comes to mind those black ink prints that you see in movies where the psyciatrist asks the patient what he/she thinks it is. This would be interesting conversation piece. New book from the library called Walls that Wow by Johnathan Fong talks about colored tape that can be applied (and easily removed) to walls to create stripes etc... One idea involves super sticky notes applied allover the wall. Looks great. Have fun.

Posted on 12/30/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Decorating My Room for $20 By brenda (Guest Post) i would paint the furniture or at least add some paint trim to liven it up. also i would buy some 1.00 a yard material from walmart and make some pillows etc. another idea might be to post for colorful items on freecycle. you could also add some color to your walls by using a colored light bulb. just a thought. good luck.

Posted on 12/30/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Decorating My Room for $20 By Persnickety Paula (366) Profile Contact You can use rit dye on white sheets for color. I use sheets for a lot of redecorating, I have made pillows, covered a tiny foot stool, covered a chair cushion, made valances, ect. For a lot of color you could do tie-dying on the white sheets with more than one color. Posted on 12/30/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Decorating My Room for $20 By A.C.S. (Guest Post) Paint it a bright color. Posted on 12/30/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse
