IDEAS DECORATING KID'S ROOM

BOYS BEDROOM

Click this blue underlined link, to find ideas decorating kid's room projects for a GIRLS BEDROOM or this ROOMS link will assist you with painting and decorating other areas of your home.

One of the best things to keep in mind when doing kid's room projects is to use a theme or start with a border and build on it.

Draw from the borders design to inspire your choice of colors and ideas.

For example, with an army wallpaper border you would use the same khaki colors for the walls, accessorize the area with a green tent style bed, then add shelving for small soldiers, tanks, and jeeps.

Try and stay with your child's style. A room will lose balance when you design with accessories, colors and toys that have little or no relation to each other.

Below I give you a list of items and ideas to decorate along with a few suggested themes.

BORDERS:

PAINT:

FABRIC:
