Offering a pretty room to your child is a good solution to allow him to enjoy a little cocoon in which he feels good, elegant, stylish and colorful. Girl or boy, it’s much easier to dream in a beautiful, well-decorated room full of originality! To help you bring your desires to life
10 decorative ideas for a stylish and colorful child’s room
Why should girls’ bedrooms always be pink and boys’ bedrooms blue? Why not bet on originality by moving away from clichés? The choice of a unisex color is very trendy. Indeed, colors like yellow or orange are appreciated for their energizing effect and good mood. Light green also joins this category. Dark green can bring a stylish note, provided it does not saturate the room, like all dark colors such as burgundy, purple or plum.
For parents who appreciate the more traditional, you can turn to derivatives of traditional pink or blue to give your child’s room a more original note. A pale and tender pink or, on the contrary, a flashy pink that tends towards orange or red; a tropical blue on the verge of green… all ideas are open to you!
Notes of color in a neutral setting
Nothing and no one forces you to surround your child’s entire room with paint. It is even to be avoided so as not to become heady. Play on the notes of color skilfully dosed and distributed in space for a much more successful effect! If your little one’s room is white, stick with a wall that you paint or wallpaper in a very distinct color or pattern, whether light or dark. Then opt for colorful furniture, in your harmonious tones. The idea is not to overdo it; just dose well for maximum effect.
Create a unique atmosphere
Does your child love nature? It is possible to fill it very simply by adorning a wall with green patterns evoking vegetation or animals. Does he like the sea? Wallpapers imitate the colors of a lagoon to perfection. Does he dream of traveling in space? Why not imitate a starry sky? All ideas are possible and at a lower cost. A little paint or wallpaper and some accessories will help you get a nice result. In addition, when your child grows up, it will be much easier for you to give another style to his room, without breaking the bank.
The idea can be declined in space. Teepees are very fashionable and allow your child to have a small personalized cabin in their own room. As for the bed coverings, they multiply at will to make this space a cocooa in its image in the form of a cabin, a boat or even a car.
Create a cozy cocoon with throws and rugs
To make your child’s room pleasant and warm, decorate it with throws and rugs. Carpets will be all the more appreciated if the floor is tiled and therefore cold. However, even on parquet, linoleum or carpet, the rug is pleasant and brings a new touch of color, bright and distinct or on the contrary more neutral and soft. As for the plaids, they can furnish the bed with a pretty stylish shade.
5: Place graphic cushions
Cushions are always nice! Synonymous with comfort, rest and tranquillity, their softness and roundness will delight your child. Opt for fabrics with geographical patterns, completely in the current fashion. Very original and designer, they give the bedroom a stylish and elegant atmosphere that breaks up the baby atmosphere a little, without distorting it.
Matching furniture
The fashion is for retro furniture and wooden, solid and rustic accessories. You can easily bring a touch of yesteryear to your cherub’s room. Wooden toys are also coming back into fashion and can accessorize a bedroom with more neutral hues. In addition, be aware that wood is very easily repainted. If you get tired of it or if you ever want to change the atmosphere of the room, a coat of paint will be enough!
Consider installing practical storage spaces to encourage your child to put away his toys when he no longer uses them. His room will seem cleaner and more orderly to you.
Stickers, a simple way to bring a room to life
It is not always easy to dress a child’s room to bring it originality, especially when you are tenants and painting is not allowed, or when the budget and/or time does not allow to embark on such work. Stickers are a very interesting and inexpensive solution to remedy this. In black or in color, they distribute their little notes with elegance. Quotes are very fashionable, but you can dare all styles of stickers! Pop, plants, animals, geometric, stylized, flashy, modern, old… everything is possible! However, be careful not to overdo it, at the risk of saturating the room.
An “in-house” personalization
Another idea for dressing up the walls is to install garlands. Garlands of letters are trendy and allow you to personalize your child’s room by putting their first name or a message that is close to your heart. Also think about small garland patterns. The advantage is that this type of decoration is quite achievable “home” and can be the subject of a manual work workshop to do with the family.
Bet on originality and fantasy
Dress up the fancy space! This is another way to bring life to a white or neutral-toned bedroom. Make pendant lights and garlands that you can hang from the ceiling. Butterflies, rockets, teddy bears, cats, birds, stars… vary the patterns, sizes and colors and hang them at various heights for a successful effect!
