Remake Bedroom without Breaking the Bank

When it comes to remodeling and updating homes, bedrooms often get passed over.

They’re tucked away in the back of the house, not usually seen by visitors and often not really noticed by the people who sleep there because they spend most of their sentient hours elsewhere.

It can also get pricey to replace beds, dressers and vanities, though the cost generally pales in comparison to a kitchen or bathroom remodel.

Yet making bedrooms as comfortable and pleasant as possible is important for promoting restful, restorative sleep.

It’s also a space you can truly make your own; you don’t have to take outside opinions into consideration. Here are some affordable ways to transform your sleeping quarters into a haven. q

Color it beautiful

Your room may already be coated in neutral, nonthreatening colors, but do you actually like them? If you find them too neutral, look for a paint scheme that engages you without overstimulating you as you drift off to sleep.

You can look anywhere for inspiration — your yard, closet, travels, childhood memories, ambitions or whatever else sparks your creativity. Consider an accent wall behind or in front of your bed.

If you’re renting you can refresh faded paint with a similar color for a cheerier appearance.

Get creative with wall art

This doesn’t mean you need to paint, draw or photograph something on your own, though it’s a fabulous idea if you have the time and inclination!

Other unconventional choices like rugs, quilts, plates and baskets may be found elsewhere in your home, or you can browse thrift stores, fabric shops and other local businesses for ideas.

If you find something that won’t be easy to frame you, can hang it on a tree branch or curtain rod. If you want to try a heavier object like an old bicycle, make sure you have the right mounting support.

Liven with linens

Sheets and comforters are another obvious source of color and comfort. Finding a new, compelling duvet over a decade-old quilt or blanket might be all it takes to revitalize your space and make it a place that draws you in.

Buying new sheets doesn’t have to be expensive, and it can make your bed much more inviting and soothing as you wind down from the energy and stress of the day.

Invest in personal statements

Sometimes it just takes one large piece to level your bedroom up to a refuge.

A statement lighting fixture can be suspended from the ceiling or positioned as a lamp in the corner to revamp its atmosphere. A roomier nightstand could be more accommodating to your evening and morning routines.

Even investing in a gorgeous wooden bed, either pre-owned or new, can save some money in the long run by being a focal point that doesn’t require much surrounding décor to make the room appealing.

LOCAL NEWS: The Northern Arizona VA in Prescott has provided an update on their Homeless Veteran Program. . . .PRESCOTT, Ariz. – The Northern Arizona VA Health Care System’s Homeless Veteran Program, along with its community partners, housed 445 Veterans in 2022, exceeding their target goal by 157%.Nationally, the 2022 goal was to house 38,000 homeless Veterans— a goal that was exceeded by 6.3%. The Department of Veterans Affairs remains committed to ending Veteran homelessness and increasing housing placements is critical to achieving this goal.“This success is a result of efforts built on the evidence-based ‘Housing First’ approach, which prioritizes getting a Veteran into housing, then provides the Veteran with the support they need to stay housed,” said Steve Sample, Medical Center Director.In Northern Arizona, there are a variety of services designed to house homeless Veterans. The VA’s Health Care for Homeless Veterans (HCHV) Program includes VA Supportive Housing (HUD-VASH) vouchers that provide formerly homeless Veterans with subsidized housing and a wraparound, interdisciplinary case management team to address issues that may have contributed to homelessness. The program provides justice outreach services, employment services, health care services through the Homeless Patient Aligned Care Team, outreach, and transitional housing support. The VA also works closely with community partners to house homeless Veterans through a system called Coordinated Entry, where community agencies along with the VA regularly meet to coordinate efforts and ensure homeless Veterans do not fall through the cracks.“We are fortunate that there is so much support for helping homeless Veterans in our area,” said Jessica Taylor, Homeless Program Coordinator for the Northern Arizona VA. “This success could not have been possible without great collaboration between our community partners, Housing Authorities, Tribal partnerships, and support from our local communities.”Looking ahead, the VA will continue to explore new avenues to house homeless Veterans and overcome housing barriers. In collaboration with U.S VETS, Gorman & Company, and the Arizona Department of Housing, a supportive housing project on the grounds of the VA’s Fort Whipple campus is in the initial planning stages. The VA is also expanding outreach to ensure that homeless Veterans are aware of services available to them. For Veterans who are homeless or at imminent risk of homelessness— or if you know of homeless Veterans in need of assistance, call 877-424-3838.For more information on renting to or hiring homeless Veterans, visit: www.va.gov/homelessAbout the Northern Arizona VA: Through its main campus in Prescott, along with Community Based Outpatient Clinics (CBOCs) in Cottonwood, Flagstaff, Kingman, Lake Havasu City, and Anthem— with additional clinics in Tuba City, Page, Kayenta, Chinle, Holbrook, and Polacca, the Northern Arizona VA provides services to approximately 33,000 Veterans over a catchment area of more than 65,000 square miles.. . .www.facebook.com/VAPrescott ...
