Would like to redecorate a room for less than $100. Need some tips.

Do you have an Ikea near you at all? I love that store. They have a lot of really cheap things and I pretty much think all of it is cute. I bought my computer desk there for like $15 dollars and my dresser for $50. They have a ton of decorating stuff (pictures, frames, posters, paintings, comforters, drapes, etc etc) that is pretty cheaply priced. If you haven't checked them out, that's an idea. Good luck.

For the bedding, do you want full bedding sets or just comforters? I know stores like big lots and family dollar sell bedding sets for fairly cheap, but the selection is minimal. If you just want comforters, you could get 2 sheets in different but complimentary designs, and quilt them together with a layer of batting yourself if you can sew. Or see if you can get a friend who sews to do it for ya. For the paint, if the walls are already white you probably won't need more than one coat. If the walls are colored it'll take a lot more -- I know someone who painted a small bedroom that had been a dark lavender with a white with a touch of peach paint. It took about 4 coats. Your best bet there is to shop around, see if you can find a good sale and buy as much as you need. Also, if you want curtains and (again) if you can sew, you can use sheets to make the curtains out of.

There are some great deals on the bed in a bags that you can find either online or in the stores. You might even check Sears besides WalMart and Target, Kmart. Thrift stores can also have comforters or bed spreads that you might like. I have found some pretty ones there. The only problem is that sometimes they charge too much for them. But it couldn't hurt to check out your local thrift stores. You hadn't said if you could sew but if you did, you can use sheets or other things to make curtains for your bedroom and living room. I do that. Or Wal-Mart's craft department sells fabric, sometimes some pretty ones for as low as $2.00 a yard, just have to look through their selection. We just spent $40 and bought an entire bolt of this fabric that we liked and I just made a hem in each end by hand, not even on the sides and hung them on small tension rods that we also got at Wal-Mart for only $3.00. And they look beautiful if I do say so myself! :-) My mother buys the oops paint all the time at Lowes or Home Depot. She will buy a gallon here or there or that smaller can for only a few dollars and she has got some very pretty colors. True, they are not white but some of them are so beautiful and expensive paints but they can't sell them once the customer has refused them so they mark them down cheap. You might have to ask at the paint counter at the store if they have them or where they keep them. Yard sales are another great way to find things to re-decorate with. I've found that rummage sales for groups usually have the lowest prices though. I hope that some of these ideas will help. I love re-decorating and I watch Home and Garden Television [HGTV] all the time!

For comforters you can find good ones at wall mart for fairly cheep. I payed 20$ for twin comforters. You can get good paint at wall mart or big lots. Its good paint and is about 10$ a gallon. Buy painting suplies like roller, tray, brush as a kit. Its usually cheaper this way. I am going to redo my sons room and I priced it at 65$ to do colored paint, supplies, and new bedding {sheets, one comforter, and pillow cases} for two beds. I thought that was a pretty good deal from Wall Mart. Hope this helps some.

Walmart has paint sections in the area I live. Sometimes you can get really good prices when you watch for sales. When you are shopping for bedding look around for "Bed in a Bag" it is the best way to save money on bedding. Comes with a set of sheets, a comforter, dust ruffle and pillow shams all in one. If you sew you could buy some really nice fabric and make a duvet cover for you old comforter. It is just like making a pillow case and then you choose whatever decorative touch to close the pouch..... the possibilities are endless.

The best time to paint indoors is in the winter. There are more discount sales on paint. Everyone paints mostly during the spring-summer-fall months that is why it is so expensive. So I would hold off on the paint until it goes on sale. As for as comforters, I am not sure of inexpensives ones online. Maybe Overstock.com. If not there if you have any ROSS stores near you, they always have really nice cheap comforters and sheets and a large selection.

Hi. I dont know what its like in your area or country of residents, but most areas will have "demolition" stores, whom sell alot of great stuff for under half price eg; interior and exterior paints, Also second hand or surplace stores, can be helpful too, people are always dropping off unwanted paint, and stuff, still in good condition... Its worth a try, to keep within your budget... I dont know what comforters are so I couldnt comment on it... Goodluck bqueen...

go to second hand shops and find some fabric or something u can make your bedding out of if u can sew great if u can't u better get baking and get over to the friend that can. paint i would look at getting a plain colour but maybe look at getting an out of line colour to make one wall a feature wall this may cost next to nothing as a shop may only have one tin left which is enough to paint the one wall. white paint i would assume never goes on sale as everyone buys it maybe be a little risky and get some colour in your life
