[music playing] tiffany brooks: even if youonly have $200 to spend, you can still makesome pretty big changes to your master bedroom. here are my three tips forhow you can make that happen. my first tip maybe the quickest way to get a high designlayer look in the history of interior design. just roll out a bold rugover your existing carpet.
go with a bold pattern orcolor to make a statement, or opt for tone-on-tonelook if you prefer a more subtle palette. treat yourself to achic bedside table. just make sure that it's asfunctional as it is pretty. if you need extra storage,make sure your side table has lots of drawers. and shelves are anexcellent opportunity to show off your favoritebooks and accessories.
just remember asyou are shopping to keep the height similarto that of your mattress, so the scale is right and thetable top is within easy reach. my last tip is a greatweekend diy project. get rid of thosedrab dated baseboards and trim and update tosomething a little bit more fresh and clean. first, carefully removethe old trim so you don't damage the floors and walls.
score the old caulk,then pull one piece at a time, gently scraping anyremaining caulk off the wall so you have a nice, smoothsurface to work with. measure your runs,cut your trim, and install using2-inch brad nails. fill holes, caulk the trim, thengive the new trim a fresh coat of high quality,semi-gloss paint for an instant update that'sdurable and easy to keep clean. so whether you'vegot $50 or $500,
you can still make simplechanges to your space. now, that's whati call a fast fix.
