If you don’t know where to begin or how to go about the interior design process, check out these 6 ideas for decorating your kid’s room!
6 ideas for your kid’s room
Accent wall: The accent wall can be painted, decorated with stencils, or even hung with wall accessories. Regardless of the choice, it’s a great way to create flow within a room and make it pop. It’s also especially perfect for your kid’s room because it gives them the choice to decorate that one wall any way they want to (well, almost any way). Therefore, you only have to deal with one wall, instead of four, when it comes to changing it down the road.
DIY headboards OR unique bed frames: DIY headboards or unique bed frames can make your child’s room pop. Whether you make your own headboard or you consider purchasing a unique bed frame, they both will add a fun touch to any room.There are even many websites that give you step by step instructions in creating your own DIY headboard. (Pinterest is a great source for DIY projects)
Mirror Accents: Mirror accents are great for multiple purposes. Of course, they can be used as every day mirrors when your child is getting ready for school or picking out an outfit. In addition, they can also be used to create the illusion of making the room seem bigger than it actually is. With so many mirror shapes and sizes, you can easily create a variety of styles.
Mixing Bold Colors: Mixing bold colors is a fun way to decorate your kid’s room, giving it it’s own unique flair. Instead of making your kids have to choose between one or two of their favorite colors, this allows for them to have a mixture of all of their favorites. It gives the room a fun, fresh feeling and is easy to change as their styles and favorite colors change throughout the years.
Choosing a theme: By choosing a theme, you make it a lot easier on yourself when choosing the design elements of the room. It not only gives you a clear direction, but it’s a fun way for the room to resemble your child’s favorite hobbies, sports, or passions.
Keeping it simple: For some and usually most, your kid’s are always changing their mind on what their favorite color is or what their favorite hobby is. This can mean constantly repainting the room, and starting back from square one. By keeping it simple, you can choose a more neutral paint color, and simply change out the bedding and accessories gradually as your child grows. This allows for the room to keep a fun presence and represent your child, but requires less maintenance and work in the future.
