Decorating a child's bedroom is a delicate balancing act. On the one hand, you want it to be a place they enjoy spending time in, one that inspires creativity for play while also feeling restful for sleep. On the other hand, it would be nice if you liked the room as well—that it felt like a cohesive (if more fun!) part of your home.
We've compiled some of our favorite ideas—a formula, if you will—for nailing the decor in a kid's bedroom to help you create a space you'll both enjoy spending time in. Continue reading to see how it's done!
Make a Statement with Your Walls
When it comes to decorating a children's bedroom, we like to think of art as the icing on the cake! To add that extra special flourish to the space, use a mix of fun, colorful artwork. Bonus points if you choose the artwork together or if it was created by your child!
Fun is all it Takes
Even if you use "adult" furniture in your child's bedroom, you can still make the space feel more youthful. We like the idea of including fun, removable accessories that can be removed when they outgrow them. For a little something extra, hang a colorful pennant garland on the wall or a small tent or canopy above their bed. You already know they'll enjoy it!
