Check out my colourful master bedroom makeover reveal. Everything was done in one month with less than $100. Proof that a small budget can still make a big impact.
Is it time already? It just can’t be!! I was gone on a blogging conference 2 weeks ago so I had one less weekend to finish my projects. I knew it when I decided to do this challenge, but still, it went pretty fast! I’m not complaining because everything turned out perfectly: the conference was totally worth it AND I’m completely in love with my master bedroom makeover!
Week 1 (The plan) | Week 2 (Stencil) | Week 3 (Painting the blinds)
Let’s recap! This post contains some affiliate links for your convenience and at no extra cost to you. Click here to read my full disclosure policy.
Remember the plan?
I had a lot on my plate for this project. I was hoping to make all of these things (the one checked are the one I actually did!):
- Painting the blinds white;
- Hanging the curtains that I had in the previous house and that I never hung;
- Stencilling the wall of the window with this awesome stencil;
- Changing the light fixture;
- Make the windows of the french doors opaque or translucent.
If I had the budget and time, I also wanted to:
- Spraypainting the furniture’s hardware;
- Give a makeover to the table lamps;
- Add throw pillows of different accent colours.
With all of this, I wanted to change the layout of the room so that it made a beautiful focal point when we came in.
Plus, someone mentioned that it’s “Feng Shui” to have the bed facing the door! Maybe I’ll sleep better! 😉
Master bedroom makeover reveal
So, here’s the before and after from the entrance:
It is so much more colourful than before! I love it! I’m glad I went with the two colours for the stencilling.
I even DIYed a new lamp for 0$! (I already had everything on hand since I had made something similar for my dining room)
I love the pattern it makes on the ceiling at night.
If you’ve been reading my blog for a bit, maybe you remember these deer wall art? I made them for my bathroom for my first $100 Room Challenge. I think they look better in here, don’t you think?
I also have free deer printable so you can easily make them too! You just need to subscribe at the end of this post.
And yes, no more clear windows for the French doors! Privacy! Finally! 😉 Are you curious about what I did? Well, you can see the tutorials here and it involves a 5$ shower curtain! lol
Here’s how it looks from the outside.
I’m so happy with the end result of my master bedroom makeover. If you don’t really like your bedroom, you should really give it a try! Now, I even feel like making my bed in the morning!! lol

Wow!! Your room turned out amazing!! so beautiful! Glad you participated in the challenge this time – isn’t it so fun! I need to check back for your privacy trick for the french doors because I have french doors leading into our bathroom too and want to do something to them.
Thanks Christina! I should have that post soon!
Hi! Just letting you know that your post is being featured tonight at Best of the Weekend Link Party (8 p.m. EST). Thank you for sharing with us!
Oh! thank you Liberty, that’s so cool!
I love it! I like the color– everything! What a room to enjoy, so much better than before! Thanks for sharing at Best of the Weekend Link Party!
Thank you Liberty!
Jaw-Dropper! Wow! This room looks totally different, and I am absolutely loving it! Just moving the furniture made a huge difference, but adding color just made this room pop. And however you managed to use that shower curtain for privacy… it looks like it was made to be a privacy door all along. Incredible job!!! Thanks for joining in on another round!
Thanks Erin for letting us participate to your awesome challenge 🙂
So pretty! I absolutely love the stenciled wall and the colors that you used! Such a great transformation!
Your room looks amazing! I love the stencil you chose and the blue is my favorite shade of blue! Simply lovely!
Thank you Loni, It is my favourite colour too!
Natalie you straight up knocked this out of the park! I am in awestruck that you did this for less than $100!! Seriously you’ve got mad skills!!!
Haha! this is so sweet of you Brooke! I tend to fill my plate way too much. If only I had more time!
Wow, what a difference! I love the colors, and I can’t wait to see how you made the light and covered the french door windows. This looks like a totally new room – I love it!
Thank you Meredith. The post will be coming out this month (hopefully!!!)
Your bedroom looks lovely and inviting. Love the colors and your stenciling job was awesome.
Hope you totally enjoy it.
Blessings,
Nellie
Thank you Nellie! I enjoy it daily (or nightly! haha)
Natalie, this came out fantastic! There is so much to look at and so many vibrant colors now. At first when I saw it I thought the stenciled walls were curtains. Imagine my delight when I realized you had stenciled them! And your solution for the french doors is brilliant! Enjoy your new bedroom!
Thank you Mary! I do plan on adding curtains to better frame the bed. It will be for another time!
Love that color. And the stencil makes a great statement.
It’s been fun participating in the $100 Room Challenge with you
Thanks! It was really fun indeed!
Natalie it looks amazing! I am so impressed with all of it. I love the colors. And the pattern on the doors coordinates so well with the stencil. I can’t wait for that tutorial! It’s beautiful! Now come do mine!!!
Hahaha! Wendy, this is very nice of you to say!
WOW this looks gorgeous! So Mod and Chic love this stencil and color you chose to make the statement. You did a great job with the $100 budget and really created a very lovely space.
Thanks Jen!
Love it! The room looks so happy and colorful now and I can’t wait to see more about that light!
Thanks Carrie! Yes, I need to work on these posts now! lol
Natalie, this looks AMAZING!!!!!! I Love it! I am contemplating using that same stencil. What great bold colours you used. I love all of it!!
