I am a college student, so my bedroom furniture is bare minimum, only having the necessities.
My bedroom furniture consists of: a bed, desk, and TV.
My bed was actually provided by my parents. They believe that a bed should be the most comfortable and expensive item in your room since a good night’s rest helps in daily functions.
It is the single most expensive item in my room.
My desk was purchased at Wal-Mart for $100.
It is sturdy and large, but assembling small pieces together was a hassle, but well worth the money for its functions. Read more »
I have a beautiful rattan desk and chair that I purchased at a flea market for only $45.00.
It is in wonderful condition, excellent actually and came with a glass covering for the top of the desk which is rolls of rattan, therefore requiring the glass to enable you to use the top for writing, etc.
When I saw the desk I just couldn’t take my eyes off of it but thought Oh well, I probably cannot afford it.
A little later I went back and looked at it again and thought I just have to have it. When I looked at the price tag, I wasn’t sure that it was saying 45.00 or 450.00.
Finally after admiring it for awhile I decided to ask the person who was selling it what the price was and was told that it was there on commission and that he thought the price was $45.00. Read more »
I purchased a computer desk from Dollar General about six months ago. I chose this piece because I am in college and needed something cheap and something to do homework on with my laptop.
I also have limited space in my sunroom, so it needed to be slim. I don’t believe I would choose the same thing again. Even though it was only twenty dollars, I would rather have something with more space.
I put it together myself and it was a hassle! I did feel a sense of accomplishment having done it myself without screaming for my boyfriends help.
The desk has a little drawer and 2 little shelves underneath the drawer. I don’t have a chair since they were too expensive, so I just use my dining room chair when I’m sitting at it. Read more »
My bedroom is very small, but I’ve managed to stuff it with a lot of furniture.
I have a huge desk from K-Mart. Sure it’s not the classiest place in the world to be buying furniture for the long term, but it was what I could afford at the time. It’s gigantic.
I love it. I wanted a desk I felt like I could live in, and this is definitely it. It was all kinds of special compartments and tons of room for everything I need to store.
I recently got a dresser from IKEA, it also is a little bit too big for the room but I love it. It’s black, but there was a wrong color piece of work included so there’s a regular wood colored stripe that runs along the bottom.
I don’t really care though, because the doors open and close very easily and I finally am storing my clothes somewhere instead of just putting them on the floor.
I also got these really cool mirrors from Ikea in an S shape. There are two of them side by side. They’re a great alternative to a traditional full-length mirror.
Finally there’s the actual bed itself. It’s queen-sized, which again is just a little bit too big for the room. I guess that’s my running decorating theme, but that’s how I wanted it. Read more »
My main piece of office furniture is a desk that was made by my husband. We looked at several office supply stores for ideas and then he made me an 8′ “L” shaped desk with two deep single drawers on each end of the “L”.
I wanted a lot if space so I didn’t have to constantly move things about when working on a project.
I also purchased a four-drawer (HON) gray filing cabinet that had been discounted over 70% due to dents at the top edge during shipment.
My chair is a swivel receptionist chair that does not stay lifted to the correct height and I’m waiting to find a better one at a thrift store or one that is deeply discounted at any local store that I happen to wander in. Read more »
