Article: One of the easiest ways to make your bedroom look brand new is by giving it a fresh coat of paint. Select a color that coordinates with your furniture and that you won't mind seeing every day when you wake up or go to sleep!  If you have a smaller bedroom, consider painting your walls a light neutral color to make the space look larger. Look for shades like white, light cream, pale yellow, or even light brown. For an even easier redecorating project, paint only 1 wall of your room in a different color to create an accent wall. Adding a wallpaper feature in your room will be a visually appealing work of art. Position a piece of furniture in front of the wallpaper, like your bed or a seating area, and let it act as a fun backdrop for the room.  For a less permanent option, consider using sheets of repositionable contact paper. Instead of traditional wallpaper, you might put up textured wallpaper or adhesive vinyl. For example, you can find faux shiplap, brick, or wood wallpaper or vinyl to decorate your walls. Textured walls can create a big impact for a low cost! Although it's a lengthier project, removing carpeting and adding wood or laminate floors can transform your entire space. To ensure that the job is done correctly, consider hiring a professional to remove the carpet and lay the new flooring. Then, place a plush rug under your bed to round out the room.  Laminate tends to be an inexpensive option for most people, but the cost will depend on the size of the space and how much flooring needs to be removed first. If you have vinyl flooring, you can paint or stencil it for a new look. Use paint labeled for use in high traffic areas. Large thrift stores and some antique shops can have inexpensive furniture and unique decor items for your room. Once you find a piece that you like, you can refinish the furniture to fit with the new theme of your bedroom.  Unless there are signs posted stating otherwise, it's normally okay to negotiate with the salesperson at the thrift or antique store to lower the price of the item. You might be surprised at how much they're willing to take off of the price! Antique stores tend to be slightly more expensive, but you can take a look at the sale items, or “damaged” items that might have scratches or missing fixtures. It's easy to fix these pieces up and get them looking good as new! If there aren't many thrift stores or antique shops near you, look in the local newspaper for estate sales or auctions where you can purchase furniture. Ask your friends and relatives if they have any extra furniture they don't want. They may sell you a great piece for a low price or give them to you for free! Websites like Craigslist and Facebook have marketplaces where people in your area can sell or give away furniture that they aren't using. Browse by the type of item that you're looking for, or navigate to the “free” section to see what great items you can find. You can also download local marketplace apps like LetGo, OfferUp, and Nextdoor which have sections for selling furniture and home decor. While you redecorate, you can make your room seem more spacious by adding a place for relaxing. Select a comfortable chair or 2, and position them across the room from your bed. You can even add a small table next to the chair to complete the sitting area. If you don't have space for a chair, consider getting a small upholstered bench or floor cushions for creating a versatile seating area when you need it!

Article: The most important thing you'll need for this craft is a sock. Socks that are missing mates are ideal candidates for making bean bags. The weave of all potential socks should be close-knit enough at all points to prevent stuffing from passing through. Additionally, you'll need:  Sock(s) Spoon or scooper Stuffing (like beans, rice, popcorn kernels, etc.) Use your spoon or scooper to evenly distribute stuffing between socks. Be careful not to overfill socks. Larger socks might be able to fit a lot of stuffing, but if the stuffing is heavy, it may cause the sock to rip and make a huge mess. Aim for a texture that is floppy without the bag being so large that your stuffing is spread thin.  Bean bags roughly the size of a normal adult fist will be ideal for most young children. Avoid over stuffing your sock(s) with beans. Overstuffed bean bags will be harder, and could hurt someone. . Take the sock by its open end, so the beans are in the toe of the sock. Hold it above the stuffing with one hand so that your pointer finger, middle finger, and thumb meet to encircle the sock. Then:  Hold position with the hand encircling the sock. With your free hand, take the open part of the sock and wrap it around your pointer and middle finger. The mouth of the sock should now be positioned so it is oriented in the same direction as the toe of the sock. Take the mouth of the sock behind and through the loop it has formed. Pull the mouth of the sock through the loop firmly to tighten the knot. You can leave the mouth of the sock as a handle, or you can trim it off with scissors. Your homemade beanbags might not stand up to wear and tear as much as store bought ones. In some cases, the material of your sock might stretch over time and stuffing come free. If you pick up a no sew sock bean bag and the knot feels tight and there are no holes in the fabric, your bean bag yet has life in it!

Article: Let the oil sit in your hair for at least 3 hours, or allow it to soak in overnight. Don’t wash your hair until you’ve left the egg oil in for the desired amount of time.  If you rinse the oil out too early, then it might not have the desired effects. Wrap a towel around your hair if you’re leaving the oil in overnight. Take a shower and clean out the egg oil with your usual shampoo. Massage your fingers through your scalp to make sure that you’ve removed all of the egg oil. Follow up with your usual conditioner.  Be sure to use shampoo to remove the egg oil from your hair instead of rinsing it out with just water! For this treatment to be most effective, use egg oil in your hair about twice a week. Pour a pea-sized amount of oil onto your fingertips and rub them together. Next, swipe over the aging or dark spot with your oil-coated finger. Repeat this treatment several times a week for maximum effectiveness.
