If you want to decorate your bedroom but you're on a tight budget, there are smart ways to achieve a fantastic look without spending a lot of money. Everyone needs a home decorating change from time to time and it's especially enjoyable when you can decorate your bedroom and make it an oasis that you can enjoy at the end of a long day of work. Here are a few ways that you can decorate your bedroom on a budget.

Start with the Focal Point of the Room

Did you know that the bedframe is the design focal point of any bedroom? What you do with your bed will determine the rest of the room's style. So start with changing the look of your bedframe. Remember that you can remove your headboard and footboard to add a whole different style. Or you can go without a headboard or footboard if you want a very clean, simple, modern look. You can also paint your frame a different color. You can even purchase a low cost, upholstered headboard that will add a fabric look to your bedroom.

You could also purchase a few yards of cotton gauze or see-through netting and drape a nice canopy look over the headboard area. With a few dollars spent at the hardware store for a bracket, you can easily attach the canopy to the wall and/or ceiling above the headboard for a soft, romantic look. There are any number of ways that you can update and change the look of your existing bedframe.

You can also update this focal point of your room by adding a whole new cover and matching accessories to your bed. Sometimes this can become quite expensive, but if you do a little online shopping at some outlet bedding stores, you will be surprised at what you can turn up with just a few dollars. You can even find designer coverlets, comforters, shams with matching curtains and other accessories that are high quality at outlet prices. Just changing the colors and accessories for your bed will dramatically change the way your bedroom looks.

Rearrange Your Furniture if Possible

After you have settled on what you will do with your bed, you should look around your bedroom to see if there is any way to rearrange the furniture or reposition one or two things that will provide more space or that will simply make your room look different. Be sure to keep in mind that you still want your furniture pieces easily accessible while still looking great in your room.

There are many simple ways to create a new look for your bedroom without spending a lot of money. It just takes some ingenuity and only a little cash to decorate your bedroom on a budget.
