Simple design ideas are ideal for a kid's bedroom.
Decorating your child's bedroom to incorporate the things he enjoys gives him a place he can go to surround himself with the things that help define his personality. Using easy-to-find items available in stores or online, along with a few simple tools, you can create a special room for your child on your own. Does this Spark an idea?
Furniture
Since a child's interests can change frequently, consider using primarily wooden furniture that you can paint to match a theme and repaint when your child discovers something else of interest. Simple furniture works with boys and girls and is easily altered to fit changing themes.
Storage
A main feature of a child's bedroom is the storage area, which is especially true of younger kids who have a lot of toys or children with a lot of books. To conserve space, consider bookshelves built into the wall. Look for storage ideas that match your child's bedroom theme to serve the duel purpose of hiding unused toys and adding to the decor of the room. A pirate-themed room, for instance, is ideal for decorative treasure chests that store toys.
Windows
You can make your own curtains using old sheets and fabric paints. Use fabric paint to stencil designs onto curtains. With the variety of stencils available, you don't need any artistic ability. Also, putting stencil designs on your homemade curtains is something your child can participate in.
Walls
Paint walls any color to match the theme of your child's room. You can also use stencils to paint shapes, action figures, cars, dolls and a variety of other designs for murals. Don't fear making the wall the focal point of the room since you can walls always paint over walls if the theme changes.
Knickknacks
Purchase dolls, action figures, toy cars or sports equipment in a variety of price ranges. Use these items to complete the themed look of your child's room. Utilize display ideas such as shelves, bookcases or display cases to show off these items, which you can swap out if your child's tastes change.
