Child's Play Guide to Decorating

Decorating your kid’s room will be child’s play with these easy tips!

Designing and decorating your child’s bedroom is a great way to spend quality time together.

It's also a great opportunity for them to express their thoughts and opinions with you but with so many options available, it can be a bit overwhelming.

One way to keep things fun is to design the room around a theme. Remember though that a child's interests can change rapidly so try and keep things simple and flexible.

There are plenty of ways to add fun and creative touches once you've decided on the perfect theme. Here are a few ideas to help you transform your kid's room into their own personal sanctuary:

Stick ‘Em Up

Wall stickers are a great choice as they're inexpensive, come in a variety of themes, cover large areas and are easy to put up and take down.

Chalk It Up

It’s time to read the writing on the wall! Creating a chalkboard wall is easy as chalk paint doesn’t require any sanding or priming.

Bedded Down

A nice new comforter with themed sheets and pillowcases is a great way to mix comfort and style.

Family Frames

Framing family photos or your child's artwork in colourful frames will add a nice personal touch.

Basket Case

Attractive storage baskets that match your theme are a great addition as they make tidying up a breeze!

A child's vision of a perfect room isn't usually as complex or as costly as you'd expect. With a bit of enthusiasm, you can make your child's day by decorating their room with a few simple touches that won’t break the bank.

Whatever you decide, make sure to involve your child in the process so that it’s a meaningful and enjoyable experience that you’ll both remember for years to come :)
