$100 Challenge

Friday, April 03 2009 - Holli

Let's face it, we all have rooms in our home that are just screaming for a makeover! But spending thousands of dollars on a new look might not fit your budget. I decided to do a little online challenge to see if I could do a bedroom makeover for $100. Keep in mind, for this small budget, you won't be able to give your room the overhaul, but you can give it a much needed breath of fresh air!

For my challenge, I only went to one store: http://www.ikea.com/. Twenty minutes of browsing there and I found a perfect new look for my tired bedroom!

Jonun Fro Full/Queen duvet cover and 2 pillow cases $39.99

Knubbig Lamp $16.99

Ovation Vase $12.99

Noresund Wall Mirror $19.99

Pilatorp Set of 4 Baskets $9.99

GRAND TOTAL: $99.95

Back by popular demand! After the response from the $100 Challenge I posted last month, I decided to do another! For many of our readers, College is looming just around the corner. So, I bring to you, the Dorm Edition!

Dorms are known to be cramped and bare. You don’t have to settle for this! Opt for functional and stylish! Keeping a college student’s budget in mind, I was able to makeover a dorm room for under $150 at Ikea!

In honor of the gorgeous summer weather we’ve been enjoying lately, I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to do a Patio Makeover! I don’t know about you, but my patio definitely needs it! For $250 at Ikea, I think you will be amazed at all I could afford!
