How to make your bedroom look expensive on a budget
A bedroom is a room in the house where you sleep, relax, and spend time with your partner. It’s often where we retreat to when we’re tired or stressed and want some peace and quiet. Bedrooms are an important part of a home, and they should be decorated in a way that makes you feel comfortable and happy. If you’re on a budget, though, this can be difficult to do. In this article, we’ll show you how to make your bedroom look expensive on a budget. So, if you were thinking of remodelling your bedroom but didn’t know where to start, this is the article for you.

Choose a zip link bed over a queen-sized one
Do you know what a zip link bed is? If not, it’s basically two single beds that can be zipped together to make a queen-sized bed. Zip link beds are great because they offer the flexibility of being able to be used as two single beds or one queen-sized bed. This is perfect if you have guests staying over or if you need to use the extra bed for yourself. And have you ever wondered why the majority of hotels use them? It’s because zip link beds are much cheaper than buying a queen-sized bed. However, they look the same and provide the same level of comfort. So, if you’re looking to save money on your bedroom remodel, a zip link bed is the way to go.
Buy new sheets
Now that you have a new bed, it’s time to buy some new sheets. But don’t just go for the first set of sheets you see. Take the time to find a good quality set of sheets that will last you a long time. For example, some of the best materials for sheets are Egyptian cotton, bamboo, and linen. These materials are not only comfortable but also durable. So, if you’re looking for a good investment, consider buying sheets made from one of these materials. In addition, you can also shop around for sales and discounts. This is a great way to save money on your purchase.
Fix your windows
Next, let’s take a look at your windows. If you have old, drafty windows, it’s time to replace them. Not only will this make your bedroom look more expensive, but it will also improve the insulation in your home. This is a great way to save money on your energy bill and keep your home more comfortable. However, if your windows are still in good condition and you do not want to replace them, you can just repaint them. Adding a fresh coat of paint to your windows can make a big difference in the look of your bedroom.
Add curtains
In addition to new windows, you might also want to add curtains. Curtains can add a touch of elegance to any room and make it look more expensive. If you’re not sure what kind of curtains to get, we recommend talking to a professional. They will be able to help you choose the right style and material for your bedroom. Some popular choices include silk, velvet, and linen. Windows fixtures can be expensive, but adding curtains is a great way to add some style and elegance without spending too much money.

Add Rugs
Another way to make your bedroom look more expensive is to add some rugs. Not only will this add colour and texture to the room, but it will also help to keep your feet warm on those cold winter mornings. Rugs are available in a wide variety of colours, materials, and sizes. However, the best ones include wool, silk, and cotton. These materials are not only beautiful but also durable. So, if you’re looking for an investment that will last you a long time, consider buying a rug made from one of these materials.
Add built-in wardrobe
If you have the space in your bedroom, adding a built-in wardrobe is a great way to make it look more expensive. Built-in wardrobes are not only stylish but also very functional. They provide a place to store your clothes, shoes, and other belongings. Plus, they can help to save space in your bedroom. If you’re not sure how to go about adding a built-in wardrobe, we recommend talking to a professional. They will be able to help you choose the right style and design for your bedroom.
Decorate the space
Now that you have a new bed, sheets, windows, and wardrobe, it’s time to decorate the space. This is a great way to add your own personal touch to the bedroom and make it look more expensive. There are a few things you can do to decorate the space. First, you can add some art to the walls. This is a great way to add color and interest to the room. You can also add some throw pillows and blankets to the bed. This will make the space more inviting and comfortable. Finally, you can add some plants to the room. Not only will this add some life to the space, but it will also improve the air quality.
Choose new lighting fixtures
One final thing you can do to make your bedroom look more expensive is to fix the lighting. If your bedroom doesn’t have any overhead lights, we recommend adding some. This will not only make the space look more elegant but also make it more functional. In addition, you might want to consider adding a floor lamp or table lamp. This will provide additional light and help to create a cosy atmosphere in the bedroom. However, look for environmentally friendly lighting options to save money in the long run.
So, if you’re looking for ways to make your bedroom look more expensive on a budget, we recommend trying some of these tips. Replacing old windows, adding new curtains, rugs, and a built-in wardrobe can make a big difference in the overall look of the room. You can also add some art, pillows, and plants to really personalize the space. And, finally, don’t forget to fix the lighting. With a few simple changes, you can make your bedroom look like a million bucks!

![[AD] The sun has finally made an appearance and the boys have been making the most of it by spending it
in the garden.
They’re go-to is always football and they’ve been trying to improve their aim and accuracy with the new Messi Foldable Footlball goal from the #MessiTrainingSystem range.
I love the fact the goal is foldable, making it easy to store away when not in use. It is also lightweight so you can effortlessly pack it up and take it to the park or to a friend’s house.
The Messi Foldable Football Goal retails at £36 and can be purchased from @argos

I am fortunate to be surrounded by strong, powerful women in the form of my mum, sister and mother-in-law (along with many others). With Mother’s Day just around the corner, @BootsUK want to celebrate all the different mums and mother figures we are lucky enough to have in our lives. They have a huge range of Mother’s Day gifts to choose from so we can show them how much they mean to us. (swipe to take a look at some of my choices)
If you want to express love and appreciation for the mother figure(s) in your life, head to Boots.com to find the ideal gift. They have a whole host of gifts, so you can be sure to find something to suit all tastes. Celebrate the #LoveForAllMums this Mother’s Day with Boots.
