Daughter's Dream Room Makeover

For my daughter’s birthday, she wanted a room makeover, and I had a $600 budget to make it happen. I built her a loft bed using leftover 2x4s, only needing to buy a couple of 2x10s for the sides and some melamine shelves for the desk. I used shelf brackets and a $100 Amazon drawer unit (an IKEA Alex dupe) for support. Total cost? Less than $200—thanks to already having a mattress! I also grabbed a closet system for $130 on Amazon and some motion-sensor LED COB lights for $15 from AliExpress. With some budget left, I splurged on a smart TV/monitor and a budget-friendly mini PC for under the loft, and some cool LED Lights. She hasn’t left her room since… just kidding! But she absolutely loves it, and that’s all that matters! submitted by /u/kerrnadian [link] [comments]
