In this episode of Design on a Dime, the team takes on the challenge of updating a bachelor pad with a tight budget of just $1,000. The client, a young professional who recently moved to the city, wants his space to feel more mature and pulled together, but doesn't have a lot of money to spend.

To make the most of the budget, the designers decide to focus on a few key areas: the living room, bedroom and entryway. They start with the living room, which is currently furnished with a mismatched sofa and a few hand-me-down pieces. The team decides to invest in a new, more cohesive sofa and a statement rug to anchor the space. They also bring in some new artwork and a few decorative accessories to add interest to the room.

Next up is the bedroom, which is currently very bare-bones and lacking in personality. The designers decide to focus on creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. They add some new bedding in a rich, warm color palette and accessorize with some new throw pillows and curtains. They also invest in a new bedside lamp and a few decorative accents to add some interest to the room.

Finally, the team turns their attention to the entryway, which is currently being used as a catch-all for shoes and coats. They decide to invest in some new storage solutions, including a coat rack and a shoe organizer. They also add a console table and a few decorative accents to create a more welcoming entryway.

Throughout the episode, the team faces several challenges as they try to stay within the budget. They have to get creative with sourcing materials and come up with innovative solutions for some of the design problems they run into. Despite these obstacles, the end result is a beautiful and functional space that the client is thrilled with.

Overall, this episode of Design on a Dime is a great example of how you can update your living space without spending a fortune. By focusing on a few key areas and investing in a few well-chosen pieces, it's possible to transform a room and create a space that's both functional and beautiful.
