We Made Over a Rental Bedroom With $200

Redecorating can be a bit overwhelming. You might get stuck deciding on what style is right for you or even just anxious about how much it'll all cost. Eventually it can get stressful to the point where it just feels easier to avoid altogether and live with what you've got.

Which got me chatting recently with a few fellow editors about what a good "budget" price point would be for a quick room refresh. Sure, I could make $500 stretch pretty far, especially in a small space. It would afford me some new furniture, maybe some fun wallpaper and art, but frankly, it just seemed like too much. Coming up with that kind of money isn't exactly easy for most of us.

So my next dollar amount was $100, and while the idea of redecorating for that little money seemed exciting (and challenging), I didn't think it was truly realistic. Which leads me to where we landed: $200. How far could we stretch it based purely on purchases (a.k.a. no DIY)?
