Design on a Dime is a television series that showcases how an impressive room makeover can be achieved, without the need to spend a fortune. In this season 9 episode 5, the theme centers around creating a Spanish-inspired Den. The homeowners, a young couple, desire to convert an unused room into a relaxing space that exudes a Spanish flair. The couple looks forward to their Den becoming a haven where they can entertain friends and family, or simply chill and relax after a long day.

The host of the show, Casey Noble, presents multiple design ideas and affordable solutions to the couple. Casey takes the couple on a scouting mission to a local store where they can procure materials and essential merchandise that can be incorporated into the final design. The focus of the show then becomes watching how the couple's ideas come to life through the creation of their cozy den.

Casey's design inspiration highlights the Spanish culture and colors while complementing the couple's style, personality, and taste. The first task is to transform the walls. Casey decides to paint the room with a vibrant shade of burnt-orange. The color immediately bolsters the room's ethnic feel and transforms it into a space that radiates warmth and passion.

Next, Casey turns her attention to the room's centerpiece, the couch. She guides the couple on how to alter a couple of their old sofas to match the rest of the furniture without breaking the bank. The transformation of the couches included striking textiles, cushion covers, and Spanish-style patterns.

The well-thought-out décor strategy also includes a table, area rug, and light fixtures that project Spanish ambiance. Casey cleverly utilizes a collection of vibrant throw pillows that adds a pop of color and highlights the uniqueness of the room. The Spanish-inspired elements are all put together to portray a sense of cohesiveness and complement the room's theme.

The room’s window coverings and floor are dealt with in a seamless fashion such that the two complement each other. The final touches include furnishings that immerse the room in Spanish culture, such as a traditional pottery piece, a bull's horn, and decorative plates.

Finally, Casey stuns the couple with her creativity by incorporating a budget-conscious accent wall. To achieve this, she uses unique stencil patterns that are prevalent in Spanish homes.

Design on a Dime season 9 episode 5 offers a lesson in how to transform an uninspiring, unused space into an elegant, chic, and cozy Spanish-inspired den. The show demonstrates that while creating a stylish, relatable space may seem like a daunting task, with proper planning, sound ideas, and creativeness, it is achievable. The finished product leaves the homeowners happy and overwhelmed with the transformation, a perfect balance of functional beauty. Overall, Design on a Dime season 9 episode 5 provides an excellent guide to creating a serene retreat that personifies Spanish flair.
