When it comes to decorating a kid's bedroom, there are so many parts that you have to think about. From furniture to bedding to wall art, the possibilities are endless. In this blog post, we will explore 5 essentials you should consider when you begin the adventure.
1. Choosing a Theme
When it comes to decorating a room, choosing a theme is essential. A theme not only adds personality and charm to the space but also creates a cohesive look. There are billions of options depending on your child. Consider your child's interests and preferences when selecting a theme, could be a dinosaur theme like the photo shown here. To bring the theme to life, you can incorporate various elements such as wall art prints, bedding, furniture and decorative accessories that tie in with the chosen theme.
2. Wall Art
Wall art is an easy way to bring the walls to life in a kid's bedroom. Choose the ones that go along with the bedroom theme and colours
A pair of wall art prints or even a set of 3 would be a brilliant way for bringing the bedroom to life. Our shop, Charlotte & Lime Wall Art Prints offers various choices that you can instantly download and print at home or a printing shop.
When hanging the wall art, consider the height at which it will be placed. Lower to the ground for younger children and higher for older kids. Additionally, you can create a gallery wall by mixing and matching different wall art prints to create a unique and personalized display.
3. Bedding
The bedding plays a crucial role in setting the overall tone and ambience. Opt for fun and colourful patterns or designs that match the chosen theme of the room. Consider including comforters, pillows, and sheets that are both comfortable and easy to clean. Don't forget to invest in waterproof mattress protectors to protect against spills and accidents. Adding a cosy blanket can also help create an inviting space for your little one to sleep and relax in.
4. Furniture
I would go for the more sturdy and durable furniture that can withstand the inevitable wear and tear of a child's play. Consider pieces that can grow with your child, such as a convertible crib that can
later transform into a toddler bed. A desk with adjustable height. You can pass on the furniture when your child has outgrown it or even sell them to others. Lighter-coloured furniture would always be the best so that you can use other items around the room to add colours to the room. This way the room would seem more spacious.
5. Storage Solutions
Storage solutions are essential for keeping the space tidy and organized. You need storage options for toys, clothes, schoolwork, and all those miscellaneous bits and pieces that seem to accumulate (my head hurts just thinking about them!) Consider incorporating bookshelves, cubbies, or bins to keep toys and books organized. A dresser or wardrobe will provide ample space for clothing and accessories. Additionally, under-bed storage or built-in shelves can maximize space and keep the room clutter-free. Having designated spaces for everything will not only keep the room looking neater but also make it easier for kids to find what they need, also to keep your sanity!
Obviously apart from wall art prints, bedding, furniture, you can also add a lot of items to further enhance the overall feel of the bedroom decor. Next time we could talk about the various accessories, curtains, rugs and lighting further. Happy designing!
