If there is an issue we unfortunately hear about every day, it is the crisis. We know that there are many people without jobs and with economic problems and for many It is not a good time to furnish a room Even if it's the baby's. But if the situation is already sad in itself, it is worse if we also cannot enjoy a pleasant environment and provide it to the children.
The good thing is that to great evils great remedies and nowadays you can get beautiful furniture at a better price than years ago and there are also solutions to furnish a room and make it great without spending a lot of money. So that is today's topic in our special baby room decoration, how to decorate a room with a low budget in times of crisis.
Plan to fit the budget
We have already insisted a lot on this subject, but it is that planning is essential always and more when there are problems, it is important if the space is reduced and also if the budget is low, we should not start shopping without thinking before or we will have finished the money available before having the whole room.
The first thing is to think about the furniture we need for the room, what we have to buy and what We can do for ourselves to minimize expenses, we can ask for several quotes or look at prices in stores and in internet catalogs, there are many options to buy cheap and tutorials that can help us do things manually.
We can make a list with what we need, look at prices, write them down and add, making several combinations we will reach adjust to the budget we have available to furnish the room and it will be then when the time comes to buy the essentials and get down to work.
Buy low cost furniture
The furniture that we assemble for ourselves They tend to be cheaper than the furniture, the majority come with the tools and instructions necessary to make assembly simple and perfect, it is even fun to spend an afternoon with the family to assemble them, the question is sometimes in looking for the positive side of things.
The Basic furniture is cheaper than decorated, natural wood, unvarnished, or lacquered, although it seems to us that such a piece of furniture is bland, there are a thousand and one ways to decorate it, paint it, wallpaper it, change the handles ... If there is something good that the crisis has, it makes us squeeze our brains more to find solutions and make them Develop more our creativity.
further a piece of furniture decorated by us, to our liking it has more value for several reasons, because it is unique, nobody will have another equal, and because It has much more sentimental value For our personal touch and for the effort we have put into decorating it, on the internet today many people share photos of the furniture they decorate, which can help us to get ideas.
Reuse old or second-hand furniture
The same that happens with the basic furniture of assembly, that we can customize them, also happens with those of second hand, if we have any old dresser, family inheritance or if we are in a market or some used furniture trade a piece at a good price that can fit in the baby's bedroom will not be difficult to renew.
In the case of used furniture, you have to sand first to remove the varnish and for the paint that we give it to get a good grip, but the renovation procedure is not very difficult, anyone can do it at home. I love old white painted furniture for the children's room, then we bring the color with textiles and other accessories.
Decorate with crafts
And if we can paint the furniture to customize them, of course we can do many more things, starting with paint the walls of the room, we calculate the necessary paint and buy it, the basic colors are cheaper than the mixtures, if we want a lighter color, we can mix with white, but choosing the tone in the store is more expensive.
For the details, mobiles, garlands, murals, wall ornaments, We must not buy anything, just some cards or even that because for many crafts we can take advantage of magazine papers or cardboard boxes, including egg boxes, with which the ornament you see in the photo on these lines is made.
In short, what the crisis does not have to force us to dispense with a beautiful decoration, you just have to reduce expenses and increase personal effort, but if we approach it in a fun way, doing crafts and painting at home can be a beautiful family activity and the result we get depends on us and our imagination, but sure That will be excellent.
