A WOMAN has revealed that she gave her daughter’s bedroom the ultimate makeover, whilst on a budget.
So if you want to give your home an overhaul, but the cost-of-living crisis has made your purse feel tighter than ever before and you aren't sure where to start, you’ve come to the right place.
Sarah Louise Lewis explained that she used bargain buys from B&M, B&Q and Home Bargains to give her daughter an incredibly grown up bedroom.
Sarah took to social media to show off a before and after look at the bedroom, leaving many open-mouthed.
Posting on DIY On A Budget Official, a private Facebook group with 2.2 million members, Sarah Louise Lewis shared snaps of her little darling’s bedroom and penned: “Promised my daughter that I would redecorate her bedroom when she started comp last September.
“Seven months later I finally got around to it. At least she thinks it was worth the wait.”
Sarah then explained how she saved money on the carpet, as she added: “New carpet was an off cut from local shop, so had a bargain.”
Not only this, but she also got her wallpaper for half the price too, as she continued: “Wallpaper was being discontinued so was half price.”
As well as this, Sarah saved money on the stunning light fitting too, as she nabbed it from Debenhams when they had a “huge sale on lights”, as she confirmed: “The new light fitting was reduced from £300 to £68.
“Even my electrician brother was impressed.”

Sarah later explained that she bought the side drawers and her daughter’s handbag picture from a local furniture shop and had the paint colour matched in B&Q to save cash.
The savvy mum revealed that she got canvas pictures for the bedroom from B&M as well as Home Bargains.
What was once a very pink bedroom has now been given a mega, modern makeover, and the black and white decor is super on trend.
Not only has Sarah's daughter got a new bed, but she's also got a posh dressing table area too.
Sarah’s post has clearly impressed many, as it has quickly amassed over 380 likes.
