Pick a Color Scheme and Use Wallpaper to Make It Pop.
Whether you choose a bold monochromatic color scheme or something more eclectic, picking a color palette is the first step in designing your kid's room. Take your pick from playful wallpapers with floral patterns and bright wallpaper designs to bring your children’s room alive. Matching accessories like throw pillows, carpets, lamps and furniture also help create a unified look.

Mix It Up with Vintage and Modern pieces.
Choose a mix of vintage and thrifted pieces to decorate your kids room along with modern items to create character and charm. For instance a thrifted dresser will be a perfect contrast against a beautiful wallpaper like this floral peel and stick wallpaper available here. Pair it with an old-school steel bedframe (like this cute one from IKEA) and perhaps a mirror with a DIY spray painted ornate frame and watch your kids room become a cozy cute and warm space.

Choose Creative Storage Solutions.
Keeping the kids room tidy and organized can be a challenge, so it’s important to choose creative storage solutions. Baskets, bookshelves, cabinets and drawers are all great choices for finding a place for toys and other belongings. Installing shelves or pegboards at kid-level can be an easy way to get them involved in keeping the room neat and tidy. Finally, add playful details like hanging buckets or labeled bins that your kids will love!

Bring in Funky Furniture Pieces.
If you want to make a statement in your kids room, choose modern furniture pieces with bright colors or unexpected shapes. Invest in a vintage bed frame and opt for storage beds that can hold toys and other supplies beneath them. You can also add classic rocking chairs or bean bag seating to complete the look. It’s all about creating a cozy corner where your little ones can play, relax and ultimately have fun!

Add Playful and Elegant Textiles and Soft Furnishings.
Incorporating playful, yet elegant textiles and soft furnishings to a kid’s room is a great way to add texture and color. Choosing a selection of neutral tones as well as bright shades of color can bring warmth to any bedroom. Select stylish bedding and curtains as well as colorful cushions to create an inviting atmosphere without sacrificing style.

Add Greenery with Plant Containers.
Get creative with cute plant containers that your kids can help decorate themselves! Not only do plants bring natural beauty and life to any bedroom, but adding planters is an easy way to teach children about the environment and responsibility. For example, green plastic flower pots can be decorated with puffy paints in all sorts of fun shapes, like stars or animals. Or opt for mini terracotta pots for succulents – just add a fun coat of paint along the inside rim and voila! Your little ones will look forward to watering their plants each day.

Encourage Organization With Storage Baskets.
Keep toys, books and stuffed animals organized with labeled baskets. It’s a bonus if they have lids to keep visual clutter minimal. Choose colors and patterns that coordinate with your décor, then label each basket with a cute phrase that will help your kids learn to take ownership of their possessions. Plastic storage bins are perfect for sorting items or keeping out-of-season clothes clean and dust-free. Hang woven fabric storage bags from curtain rods, then instruct kids to put away all their toys after playtime so the room looks neat and clutter-free.
