Quite some time ago I came across this media console from Crate & Barrel. Since we are only renting I really fell in love with the fact that your TV would be mounted but wouldn’t damage the walls. It seems Ikea has also caught on to the concept, only with five colors instead of just one. 
I give you Abbott ($748),
And it’s insanely cheaper counter-part, Benno ($139).
I really fell in love with this Dwell Studio set, but the price tag is still a bit ouch.
$450 Dwell Studio
Includes: bumper, fitted sheet, skirt, and blanket
While browsing pb kids I found something similiar!
$208 Pottery Barn Kids
Includes: bumper, quilt
So it’s short a sheet and a bedskirt, but those don’t cost much compared to the $200+ dollars you’d save by going this route. And you can mix and match. Or buy pink / blue / purple / green / whatever when you find out the sex. Or even use another printed sheet.

Later on this year I’ll be redoing my half of the office in our house.
Here it is before/now (I know, super messy!):
And here is inspiration for what it should look like after:
$199.00 Expedit (white) – I’d HAVE to keep my things pretty and organized if they’re exposed.
$150.00 Ingo / Stefan Chair & Tables – I already have a table that I’ll be painting white. If I had space I’d get this, too.
$150.00 Expedit Drawers (white) – I’d need five @ $30 each.
$ 40.00 Barometer Desk Lamp (red) – Need extra light for work.
$ 30.00 Kassett Magazine Box (red) – I’d need two @ $15 each.
$ 20.00 Vacker Shelving Unit – For paper. It will end up red or white.
$ 25.00 Snille Swivel Chair (white) – My chair now is too big.
$ 20.00 Kassett Magazine File (red) – To go atop the Expedit. I’ll need 5 @ $4 each.
$ 10.00 Expdit Casters – I’d need two @ $5 each.
$ 10.00 Kassett Paper Box (red) - One set of two.
$ 5.00 Chris Noticeboard – Will probably end up red or white or both.
$ 2.00 Fniss Wastepaper Basket (clear) – Just because it matches.
$ 2.00 Billig Plant Pots – will paint red & use for pencils, etc. I’d need 4 @ $0.49 each.
Total $513 (minus the table I won’t need).
So much for this being a “cheap” makeover, haha.
