Change is as good as a holiday they say. Decorating a kid’s room may be a little complicated depending on the child’s preferences, your own vision, and the decor in the rest of your home. Decorating does not have to cost a fortune. Here are a few kids room decorating ideas that are inexpensive, fun and sure to get the approval of everyone.
Kids Room Decorating Ideas
• Create Your Own Art Gallery
We all know kids tend to bring home a lot of their own artwork, so why not incorporate this into their room? Have a feature wall where you can hang different sized frames and fill them with your kid’s own handiwork. You can choose frames to blend in or stand out. In a neutral color room, you might want to have some bright color frames on the wall or hand neutral shades in a room that already has a lot of brightness. You can save time and hassle by buying unpainted frames and painting them yourself with colors to suit your choices.
• Mix and Match for a Different Look
You might want to look at adding pieces over time instead of everything at once. You can purchase new or refurbish items of furniture. Maybe buy an older piece of furniture, repaint it and even recover it with other materials to stand out in your kid’s room. Add in some patterned accessories to show off your newly covered stool or headboard. Don’t be afraid to experiment a little with color, textures, and patterns.
• Design Your Own Room Accessories
You can design and paint your own bedside lamps using stamps, paint techniques, and more. Choose new colors for the headboard, bedside tables and desk; give them a light sand and a complete makeover with a fresh coat of paint in your choice of colors.
• Create a Feature Wall
One great idea for a feature wall is painting a wall in the room with chalkboard paint and allowing your little artist to literally write on the walls. Other ideas can include a single wall painted a bright, primary color while the others are painted a more neutral shade, or go crazy and paint each wall a different color. There are a few other techniques that look great on a feature wall such as painting stripes or checks on the wall or making use of techniques such as stamping, sponging or creating an ombré effect. There are so many amazing things you can do with a can or two of paint.
• Wall Decals or Wallpaper
Wallpaper is making a comeback. In a smaller room, wallpaper just one wall or to make a large room cozier, do two or more. Wallpaper is not all flowers and checks anymore, there are a lot of choices of modern styles and designs. Take a look at what is on offer to give you some great kids room decorating ideas. You may also want to try some large decals to put on the wall to give it a different look and finish to normal. Some offer custom sizes and designs, so you can blend in a variety to make you and your kids happy.
