Our House Thursday

Welcome to Morgan's room.  I have decided to feature it on my blog because we are moving in two weeks and I need to document our house (read about our house sale here).  I'll break it down for you so you know just how inexpensive it can be to decorate.

Bedding.  I made the blanket and the pillows.  I bought the material at Joann's with a 50% off coupon so it all cost roughly $20-$30 (it's been a while so I don't remember for sure).  I got the little rocker for $1 at a garage sale, painted it white, and reupholstered it.  The book holder we had, but you could find a basket at a thrift store for super cheap.  I just painted it and voila... 

The curtains were from Burlington Coat Factory and I think they were $6 each.  The white thingy over her bed was $10 at Ikea.  And I'm thinking the garbage was from Ross and I'm sure I didn't pay much for it.

I bought the shelves at the thrift store for $1.50 and painted them.  I got the pink frame for free from my old job and painted it.  The lamp was a Goodwill find for $5-ish.  The nightstand was my grandma's and it has been painted a willion times.  The big rocker was $15 at a garage sale.  It used to be red with red pillows.  I painted it white and made the black and white cushions to match the rest of the room.  


Total cost: Approx $64.50 for accessories and maybe $15 for paint = $79.50.  Sorry I can't be exact.  I'm going to be doing her new room totally different and I will feature that with exact cost.

Pretty please follow me.  I will be having a give-away soon!

I will be Linky partying on these blogs.
