Oh my gosh. Harriet, calm down. Calm down. This is your chance to shine. Come here!
我的天哪。Harriet,冷靜。冷靜點。這是妳發光發熱的機會耶。過來!
Hey. I'm Alexandra, home editor Chatelaine. Welcome to another episode of the Home Primp, where I makeover spaces on a budget.
嘿。我是 Alexandra,Chatelaine 的編輯。歡迎來到《居家改造》的另一集,在這系列節目中,我會在有限的預算裡改造空間。
The Home Primp
《居家改造》
Right now, we're in my guest bedroom. This is the room where my family stays when they come to visit or catsit for us. And this room has got the basics already. It's got a bed; it's got a rug; it's got cute curtains. But it's really lacking any personality. So over the next three episodes, I'm gonna transform it and primp this entire room.
我們現在在我的客房。我家人來拜訪我或幫我照顧貓咪的時候,他們就會住這個房間。這個房間已經有基本的設施了。有一張床;有一張小地毯;有可愛的窗簾。但這個房間非常缺乏個性。所以在接下來的三集中,我會改造並裝飾這整個房間。
Today, we're gonna focus on the bed area. I wanna make this space really relaxing, really cozy. And so I'm just gonna add a few things to make it feel warm and inviting for under 200 dollars.
今天我們會先著重在床附近的區域。我想要將這塊空間變得非常令人放鬆、非常舒適。所以我只是要加一點東西,花不到兩百美元讓這裡變得溫暖又吸引人。
How to Create the Bed Room of Your Dreams
如何打造出夢想中的房間
Full disclosure. I didn't want to spend a lot of money on updating the bed as this is our guest room and won't be used a lot. I found the most inexpensive frame I could and used my favorite shade of stain. It took me just an hour to stain it before I built it. And now it looks so much more luxe.
說句老實話。我不想為了改造床鋪花大錢,因為這只是間客房,也不會很常用。我找到最便宜的床框,並漆上我最喜歡的顏色染料。組裝之前我只花了一個小時漆上顏色。現在它看起來奢華多了。
If you don't have a fancy headboard, believe it or not, this is an easy DIY job. All you need is this long photo shelf. Fill it with fun art, a cute candle. And if you don't have space for a side table, this doubles as a great storage unit for your books. Some kind of textured garland will always make a lackluster headboard shine. I've had this one forever, but I've linked to a look-alike down below.
如果你沒有漂亮的床頭板,信不信由你,這只是個簡單手作工程而已。你只需要一個長形的上牆式層架。用有趣的藝術作品或可愛蠟燭填滿層架。如果你沒有空間放床邊桌,這也是個放書的好空間。放些有特別造型的掛飾絕對可以讓黯淡的床頭亮起來。我一直都有這個掛飾,但我在下面資訊欄放了一個類似掛飾的連結。
The quickest way to primp a side table is to change its knobs. These make this night table look unique. Inside, I'm up to one of my oldest tricks—lining the drawer with paper with a pop of pattern and using a tray to corral all of my necessities. A pretty carafe always makes me feel like I'm at a spa and looks nice, too.
要裝飾床邊桌最快的方式就是換掉手把。這會讓床邊桌看起來很獨特。至於抽屜裡面,我要用我最慣用的手法--將有花樣的紙張放進抽屜內層,並用個小托盤收好我所有必需品。一個漂亮的玻璃水瓶會讓我覺得我在做水療,而且擺起來也很好看。
Don't have a side table? A small pouf you already have can hold books. Or use a decorative ladder to store extra blankets, magazines, and wrap a pendant around the side.
沒有床邊桌嗎?拿個你本來就有的小椅凳也可以放書。或放個裝飾用的梯子來放多餘的毯子、雜誌或在邊邊掛上掛飾。
Next step is lighting. If you're tight on space, a wall sconce is a must. They can be expensive, so it's often more cost-efficient to make your own. You could hang it a couple of ways, with a cute decorative hook like this one or with a wall bracket. This wall bracket cost just two dollars. It's untreated wood, meaning you can stain it or paint it any color you like. This plug-in pendant is made from concrete. The cord wraps around the bracket, and a snazzy light bulb finishes off your custom fixture. Or if you're feeling really fancy, use an oversize Edison-style bulb.
下一個步驟是照明。如果你的房間空間狹窄,那你一定需要壁燈。但壁燈可能會很貴,所以自己做一個比較經濟實惠。你可以用不同的方式掛上燈,用個像這種的可愛裝飾掛勾或用個支撐架。這個支撐架兩美元而已。這是沒處理過的木頭,代表你可以漆上自己喜歡的顏色。這個插電式的掛燈是混凝土材質。將電線繞過支撐架,這個時髦的燈泡就是完成客製化配件的最後一個點綴。如果你想要很時髦,可以用個特大的愛迪生式燈泡。
Bedding is expensive. Instead, keep your original sheets. Something with one solid color is good. And use throw pillows to add color, pattern, and texture. My rule of thumb is two basic cushions and one bold. But you can honestly mix and match any pillows you already have on hand.
床包會很貴。可以留著原本的被單就好。配上單色的床鋪也很好看。利用抱枕增添顏色、花樣和紋路。我的基本原則就是兩個基本款抱枕和一個重點色抱枕。但其實你可以混搭任何你手邊本來就有的枕頭。
And there you have it—a complete bed transformation for under 200 dollars. Thanks so much for watching the Home Primp.
