What does Nadia think about her room makeover?
She absolutely loves it. She loves the colors, she loves how practical everything is (nothing is precious, we did most of it after all). Tell us about some of the diy projects here. Wow! Where to start? For her bedroom we painted the main wall blue, and all the wood was painted white. I sewed pillows for her bed and a cushion for her desk chair. I refinished her bedside table/dresser, made the floor pad under her desk. I made lampshades for the swing-arm lamps and the little lamp on her desk (a salvage piece). I made the mobile on the ceiling, the sign over the door, the bulletin board and a lot of other things in her bathroom. She made the monogramed trash bin almost by herself. Our budget was US$200, and most of it was spent on paint, so I had to get really creative to get things done without going out and buying things. Do you have any advice for parents who want to embark on a budget-friendly makeover like yours? Get creative, rummage through your house and see what can be repurpos
