    You can reuse items you already have in a different way. For instance, you can paint your existing dresser or reuse your decor in a new way. You can also shop at thrift stores, flea markets, and estate sales for inexpensive decor and furniture.

    The best way to make a room feel bigger is to brighten it up. Make sure you have sufficient lighting - add lamps to your nightstands or string lights on your headboard if you need more. Paint the walls a light shade, and make sure you're letting in as much natural light as you can.

    You can add personal touches to your bedroom, like framing photographs on your wall, adding your favorite flowers to a vase on your dresser, and painting your walls your favorite color. Small changes like decluttering and adding a few new decorative accents can make a huge difference!

    You can always repaint it! Try a different shade that looks more pleasing to you. Alternatively, you could tone down the color with your decorations. For example, you could incorporate more neutral colors.
