My room is old and boring. How do I make it more homely on a budget?

Published by:  JuliaE

Hello ^^ I recently moved from my UNI dorm to a rented apartment, but there is one problem. It’s old and very ugly. There is no decoration, the walls are gray and curtains are torn. I already asked my landlady if I can change anything and she approved. So, now I need help with decorating it. Does anyone know any cheap homeware shops? And do you have any ideas about what I can do to make it brighter and more pleasant to live in?

Hey Julia. It’s great that the owner of the apartment approved it. I got most of my stuff from ikea so definitely look there- most things are very cheap. There are curtains and pillow cases so that’s a good idea.

Yup I got lots of things from IKEA too. Sometiems there are even sales and discounts so you can get stuff very cheap.

About how you can make your bedroom look brighter. Are you allowed to paint it? If it’s not white, paint it white. Or add a new wallpaper in a light color. Also buy light color curtains and don’t shut them during the day. Ypi can buy a desk lamp and a nightlamp to have more light at night.

I agree with Mahek! Another tip – you can add fairy lighrs over your bed. They sell them almost everywhere and their cheap.
