"Updating Bedrooms Without Spending a Lot of Money - Part 2


Usually, when you want to change the atmosphere of your home or prepare it for sale, you focus on updating the kitchen and bathrooms.


However, updating kitchens and bathrooms often requires a significant amount of money. On the other hand, making small updates to the bedrooms can significantly change the atmosphere of the house. When selling your home, it can also give buyers the impression that they can update the kitchen and bathrooms according to their preferences.


Now, following the previous article, I will introduce ways to update bedrooms with minimal spending.

  1. Adding Unique Hooks

You can find beautiful and diverse hooks for hanging clothes on websites like Etsy. Simply adding these unique or stylish hooks to the wall can instantly liven up the atmosphere of the room.

When installing hooks, it's important to consider how they will look when clothes are hung on them. Personally, I think they should be installed on a wall close to the wardrobe but not directly on it, as placing them on an empty wall in the room can add visual interest without making the wall appear cluttered.


  1. Gallery Wall

Decorating one wall of the room like a gallery is also a great idea. By placing pictures, posters of similar sizes, or landscape photos in matching frames, you can add charm to the room's atmosphere.


When creating a gallery wall, it's advisable to maintain a consistent theme, such as using movie posters or landscape photos. It's also best not to overcrowd the wall; limiting it to 6 to 8 pieces works well. Additionally, using family photos as a theme may not be appealing to potential buyers when selling your home.


  1. Rearranging Furniture

Sometimes, simply rearranging the furniture in the room can upgrade its appearance. Especially by changing the direction of large pieces like the bed, you can make the room look more spacious. Additionally, replacing bed sheets and other linens while rearranging furniture can further enhance the feeling of remodeling.


  1. Dimmer Switch

Installing a dimmer switch for the room's lighting allows you to adjust the brightness according to your needs and mood. Having dimmer switches can also impress potential buyers when selling your home.


  1. LED Bulb with Bluetooth Speaker

If your home lacks built-in speakers, you can replace one of the room's light bulbs with a Bluetooth speaker-equipped bulb. This inexpensive upgrade allows you to easily control music via Bluetooth.


  1. Bedframe Replacement

The first thing that catches the eye when entering a room is often the larger pieces, such as the bedframe and bedding. Similar to an accent wall, if the room's walls have a calm atmosphere, opt for a bright and cheerful bedframe design, while if the walls are bright and vibrant, choose a more sophisticated and understated design to enhance the room's atmosphere.


So far, we've explored how to update bedrooms without spending a lot of money.
