Bedroom Makeover - Under $10.

When I first moved to Omaha, I celebrated by buying new sheets and a comforter cover for my bed - that were NOT Twin XL. Okay, I still sleep on a twin bed, but there's something about being off the college-issued long beds that made me feel more adult.

I was a big fan of the yellow and dark gray, and that hasn't changed.

sorry for the bad pictures - bad lighting in my apartment.

However, I finally hit the Target jackpot last week. I never seem to have the awesome luck other people have at Target - finding those endcap deals? Almost never anything I want badly or need (because let's be honest, most of the stuff at Target is stuff you just WANT). However, as I was meandering through the aisles a week ago on a day off from work, I saw sheets on sale. Clearance, actually, not just sale.

And duvet covers.

ON CLEARANCE.






So for a meager ten dollars, I did a quick bedroom revamp.


And I'm loving it. I'm digging the gray/white combo with the red for more of a wintry feel (because yes, it is winter), and I love that I'm able to alternate between the two from now on. The duvet cover also has a more grown-uppy feel than the yellow one. Not that the yellow is bad; just different.

Anyway, I was super psyched about revamping my bedroom (ok, whole apartment since I have a studio) for less than ten dollars.

What's the best thing you've ever bought on Target clearance?

  1. I bought my duvet for my last apartment for $8 for a queen. I found it randomly stuck in with some towels. And a few weeks ago I got a crapload of frames on clearance for 47 cents each. Even the cashier couldn't believe it.

  2. I've been looking for that exact duvet cover there forever to make curtains out of! I saw a tutorial for it, and I have such a weird shaped window that I wanted that one! I'm going to need to make a trip there asap!

  3. Great deal! I just scored some new bedding at Marshalls. I never shop there but I felt something tell me to go in and I'm glad I did! I spruced up my room as well!
    Love the colors!
