Reuse Old or Torn Fitted Sheet on Box SpringI have lovely fitted sheets that complements my bedroom, but had a center tear. I like to save those for putting over the box spring.
Curtain Rod HeadboardUse a curtain rod and a couple pieces of fabric to make the most elegant headboard. Headboards can be expensive, and if you try to make your own from wood boards and foaming, it can be a little tough. Mounting a curtain rod over your bed is very easy. You can also change colors whenever you like!
Homemade Headboard IdeasA cheap door can make a good headboard. Laid on it's "side", of course, and attached to the wall. Gardening fencing, or garden decorations of metal look good also. Just attach to the wall.
Decorating with a Paris ThemeI wanted people to feel like they were in Paris when they walked into my bedroom, so I started looking at different web sites getting ideas for my room. I got a mini Eiffel Tower and clock, and a pillow with a city that looked like Paris.
Make Too Large Dust Ruffle Fit with Duct TapeLast winter I bought a really nice comforter set at a good price, but it was a queen and the bed is a full size. The dust ruffle was quite large but no problem, I grabbed the roll of duct tape and the fit was perfect in no time.
Bed Canopy for a Finished LookI bought a canopy at a bedding store and it really makes my bed look nicer. I get many compliments on it.
Use Curtains for Canopy BedsInstead of buying those expensive drapes made specifically for canopy beds, why not try curtains. Curtains are less expensive if you buy them at the right store. Just make sure the curtain's rod length fits the canopy's frame rods. It is easy and cheap!
