$ 150 guest bedroom transformation!!!!

If you have been following along on my Instagram stories, this bedroom transformation was created by my husband challenging me to do a bedroom makeover without spending more than $150 (before taxes). We were expecting guests and this bedroom has been neglected for years. It has become the recipient of furniture that I no longer use or don’t know where else to put. It’s basically the project that you always find an excuse not to do, that’s it!!

So here is a before photo so you can have an idea of what it looked like before…

Think about the feel you want to achieve

Top 3 things that I considered and asked myself while doing it:

What the room would be used for?

What is the environment feel you want??

What is your inspiration??

It’s important to consider every element involved when working on a space. It’s a guest bedroom so I was looking for a hotel/vacation feel where my guests could potentially feel relaxed and knowing they are on a home, but not in theirs.

Planning is Key!

When taking on this project I had to take on consideration the budget and my non-negotiables.

My non-negotiables were two things that I knew that by changing them it would create a huge impact on the bedroom.

1- Paint!!

TIP. Cheapest way to change a room without spending a lot of money.

2- Bedding issue

I already owned a bedding set, but that comforter wasn’t giving me “life” and I knew that after changing the color on the room I would have to invest in at least a new comforter. So I went for a safe option, white.

Let’s break it down
