Upgrade your bedroom for free!

So recently I have been watching those 'Room Tour' videos on YouTube and it just makes me inspired to do my room up too. However some of us are not as lucky to be given a budget for this kind of thing so what do we do? We improvise with the things that we already have!

So I wanted those wall cubes for my room and after some searching around they're typically around £15-£40 BUT I recently found that the lid of an old (gift) box is the perfect alternative:




The next thing is using these pretty glass pebbles typically used in vases) to fill up old chocolate trays like the ones I have here. I found these pebbles in a big bag for just £1 in the pound shop


Do you struggle to find ways of storing all your skin care products? 


Well I used the bottom of this Soap and Glory gift set that I was given. I love the retro collage and I think fits well with my beauty theme



More tray ideas: here I have my perfume boxes, I took the perfumes out for display and the lotion in the soap and glory tray. This DKNY box is really nice on the inside and will make a really useful tray whereas the lid will act as a decorate stand for my perfumes!



Now for the wall area around my mirror I decided to stick this Marc Jacob flower cutout. You can find stuff this this in the fragrance section in department stores where they have decorative cards for you to sample their perfumes on. 

 

My next idea is to use old make up products as decoation. Here I have these really cool lip glosses in the shape of chunky crayons. I just stuck them on the wall with the Glue Dots which are very strong and secure.




 You can use your wall hangings to decoratively keep things like clips and broaches. Here I've also put my mustache glasses on :)



More storage idea for jewellery-This gift box


Finally you can use these cute little net pouches that usually come with bits of jewellery. I'm guessing they're also pretty cheap online too. You can use them to keep any electronic equip or anything that needs to be kept secure and tidy
