Five Wall Dcor Solutions for Your Childs Bedroom
02/08/12
by: Melissa A. Boyd
Is it time to decorate your childs bedroom and you find yourself staring at a blank wall? Walls are the perfect canvas for creativity. Here are five wall dcor solutions to give you a head start on your planning.
Paint
It may sound a little too simple, but using paint in creative ways can create a dramatic effect on walls. Whether you are choosing subtle pastels or bold colors, have fun with your design. Paint each wall with a different color. Experiment with stripes and other geometric shapes. Visit your local home improvement or craft store where you will find a great variety of stencils and faux finish kits.
Framed Art
Placing posters and other artwork in frames can create a sophisticated or fun look. Posters and prints can be purchased at most retail stores. Want to portray a personal touch? Use your childs artwork or family photographs. Involve your child by purchasing a disposable camera for them to take their own pictures. Utilize home imaging software to enhance and add effects your child will love! Another benefit of framed art is it can easily be changed to create a new look.
Wall Stick-Ups
A less permanent solution to decorating your childs walls is using wall stick-ups. These fun wallpaper-like cutouts are a simple low-cost solution. Designs can be found to fit most any theme, from castles to cartoon characters. While some products require using water, most available today are peel-and-stick.
Shelves
Not only do shelves spice up a wall by adding a third dimension, they create a storage solution for your childs gadgets and gizmos. There is a great variety of shelving options available on the market to day.
Bulletin Boards
They arent just cork board and push pins anymore! Bulletin boards come in all sorts of sizes, shapes, and materials. Your child can pin up pictures of friends, study reminders, and more. Many bulletin boards come with additional features such as built-in photo frames. Better yet, make one with your child by using cardboard and fabric. Tie ribbon tightly around the board as a push pin alternative!
