What do you do with an old bedroom that’s 1970s green and pink? Re-do it! Top to bottom. And Melanie here gives the perfect instructions how! She created the perfect sky blue, healthy and relaxing theme. Read how she did it all herself and for a reasonable amount.
I decorated my own bedroom a while back. The theme was definitely blue. I was inspired by the fact that the bedroom hadn’t been decorated since my family had moved in and I thought it would be nice to give it a new look. It was fun to do, but exhausting. Initially, I wanted to paint my room a new color. It was originally a horrible, greenish color with a pink pattern! Ugh. I chose a sky blue. I had to move furniture around and some of the bigger items had to go out of the room in order for me to be able to do a good and complete job. I did a good chunk of it the first day but finished the next day. I also decided to paint the ceiling with the same color. The original color was white with another horrible, triangle-like pattern. Having a blue-colored room made the space feel very soft and pretty. I also put in new carpeting. It’s beige and plush. It covers the whole floor. I had help installing it and then the furniture was moved back in place. However, I had bought some new pieces and those went in first. I put in a new bed with a wooden frame and a dresser drawer to match. Of course, I had to get new bedding to go with the bed and bought a quilt, quilt cover, blankets and sheets, all blue! Lastly, I decided to add plants to my room, for better health and for additional, natural beauty. I bought two hanging plants and three small plants to put by the window. They definitely added a nice touch to everything. The cost was over $1,000 because of the furniture, which I got at a local furniture store. It took me a bit longer to complete the decoration of my room than I had anticipated, but I was glad to do it.
