Guests Bedroom Holiday Makeover 
A guest bedroom should be simple with all the amenities your guests may need. I wrote a post a few years ago with a full list of all the guest room tips and essentials.
I was able to create this current guest bedroom oasis on a budget with most of my items coming from Better Homes & Gardens at Walmart. They always have such a fun selection at great prices, which make it easy to do a quick update for the seasons.
I was able to do most of the shopping online with easy pick up or free shipping. This made it easy to create a color scheme for the look I was going for.
You may remember the prior guest bedroom makeovers I’ve done with more BHG items.
- Blue & White Bedroom Makeover – I love the crisp colors and will use this bedding again.
- Soft & Cozy Bedroom Makeover – This was a makeover I did for my sisters bedroom. Which I didn’t even realize until today, that I bought the same comforter for this makeover.
- Around the World Guest Bedroom Makeover – This one was all based on my extra large world map.
Budget Friendly Guest Bedroom Ideas
One of the easiest ways to add style on a budget is with your accessories and accents. 
Decorative Pillows & Throws
I used 3 different pillows to add that extra layer of style to the bed. The grey fuzzy one comes in a pack of two and can be used year round. the Season’s Greetings and the Rudolph Dog are both holiday seasonal pillows you can pull out year after year.
Adding a seasonal throw blanket adds another layer of functional style to any room.
DIY Wall Art
Since I was decorating with seasonal colors, I needed new wall art, but I definitely wasn’t going to invest in new art for just one season.
So I wrapped a plain canvas I already had with Christmas wrapping paper and added a natural fir wreath. It’s perfect for a quick holiday feel!
I also used a couple of budget friendly frames and filled with printables.
One has our WiFi password and the other holds seasonal art that I can fill with something else later.
