Room Makeovers on a Budget: Boys and Girls Bedrooms

New Series! Sometimes you just need a little inspiration (and links!) to get you going.

Designers somehow know how to take the different elements of a room and pull them all together so they all look fabulous together. Some of their finds, though, can get really expensive. Luckily, nowadays there are so many stylish and well-priced items that are available online that can help you get that same “designer” look. And we’ve pulled the looks together for you here so you have a foundation to get your room going!

We’re starting you off with a boys’ and girls’ bedrooms. What other rooms and styles would you like to see next? (And comment if you found this helpful!)

          Just added a textured white set that would look great! For an added touch, added a quilt to go over that as well!.

    I did white dressers from Ikea for all bedrooms
    But for my girls room instead of a beanbag I put a swing from ceiling around 70$
