Relaxing Bedroom Retreat on a Budget

If you’ve wanted to add to a charming space for sometime now but just haven’t had the time or the budget, you may be surprised at the places you can visit to find affordable furniture pieces and décor elements. From second hand stores to looking at newspapers for furniture sales, there is a way to create a relaxing retreat that will help you unwind after a long day.

Second Hand Stores Have Bedroom Treasures

Many second hand stores have furniture that’s only slightly used or antique furniture that’s easy to repair. Spend anywhere from ten to fifty dollars on a nice piece of furniture and develop your own DIY project on a fun weekend. You might find a lattice headboard that will look amazing in your relaxing space or a lamp that’s chic with its retro lamp shade.

Look through the Newspaper for Daily Sales

Unfortunately with a bad economy plenty of companies are going out of business or have occasional weekend sales. To stay in the knowing of sales, check your newspaper, subscribe to favorite site newsletters, and always be on the lookout when you drive by your favorite stores. If you’re going for a relaxing retreat bedroom look, visit sales that offer plush pillow and blankets and buy them for half the cost. Or, find a new coverlet from a shop like Target in their sales section and use this pretty cover to make a bed look dreamy and inviting.

Scour Pinterest for DIY Relaxing Bedroom Ideas

Pinterest is certainly addicting, so why not use it to your advantage and come up with inexpensive ways to create your relaxing retreat? From old mirrors from fish tanks, find items that you may already have in your house and use them to develop your relaxing bedroom. An old mirror can easily be repainted to create a charming shabby chic look and a fish tank can be cleaned and reused as a fun tank full of fish that’s perfect for a bedroom. Look through the images on Pinterest and use your imagination to create a dreamy bedroom. Also, start hunting and find old décor pieces that are already in your house or in the attic. With a fun DIY project they can be transformed!

So instead of thinking that there’s no way to create a beautiful bedroom retreat that will help you unwind, it’s time to start being creative and think of ways to be frugal. You’ll be surprised when you find inexpensive pieces of furniture at a second hand store and will be thrilled to also find relaxing elements that are already within your house. All of these treasures are just waiting to be implemented into a relaxing retreat in a creative way.
