Ditch the Pink or They’ll Die of Embarrassment
Ever seen the look in a little boy’s eyes when they think of the color pink? Most boys won’t even look at the color, let alone sleep in a room filled with it. For boys you’re best off using blue, green yellow, orange, or any other color your kid chooses.
Some boys enjoy darker colors, which is fine. but darker colors won’t make the room look open and inviting. To combat a dark color choice, present your child with predefined choices. Instead of asking them which color they want, present the choices and ask which they like best?
Double the Size of a Room with Ease
Inevitably you’ve gone into your kids room only to find the floor covered in toys, clothes, shoes and sticky stuff. You hope the sticky stuff is candy, but with kids you never know. If that’s happened you know that space is a huge concern for kids’ bedrooms.
You can easily increase the size of a room with a floor to ceiling mirror. In most cases it can double the perceived size of the room. Mirrors are a cost-effective way to create depth and energy inside a small room.
The best place to position the mirror is on the outer side of a closet door or across from a window. opting for a closet door will make the floor space look larger. If you need more light, place the mirror across from the window for a burst of early morning energy.
Choose the Right Floor Plan
Designing a room involves more than making it look larger and incorporating vibrant colors. You need to plan how to design the room to ensure all furniture will fit. Planning before moving furniture saves you hassle and energy. Here are three amazing floor plans to visualize before beginning your redesign.
The Library in the Corner
Without a doubt your child will love having their own personal library in the bedroom. The floorplan is perfect for oddly shaped rooms. If your child’s room has a small nook or cranny that’s too small for furniture, incorporate a makeshift library.
Make sure that any big furniture is placed against larger walls. Then simply hang some wall decorations, add some pillows and a small bookcase. You will help your child foster a love for reading, and it looks super cute! Add some stuffed animals to encourage use of the newly incorporated library.
The Study Under the Stairs
Is your child a Harry Potter fan? If so you can design a floor plan that uses vertical space. You’ll need a raised bed to make this work. Simply install the bed according to the instructions. Usually this means attaching long bedpost legs to the frame. After you build the bed, place it against the largest wall in the room. You’ll immediately see the fruits of your labor.
There will be a large space beneath the bed where you can place a bed, desk and lighting. Here’s the part your child is gonna go crazy for. The bed has stairs to climb to reach the upper sleeping area.
You’ll never worry about extra floor space again! Teach your child to use the area under the bed for toys and falling over toys becomes a thing of the past.
Storage Galore!
Last but not least, let’s talk about storage. Children always need more than adults and giving it to them is super simple.
You can choose hanging pegs to utilize wall space effectively. Match these with the color palette of the room for extra zing.
If you don’t care for pegs, you could choose storage boxes that can be stowed beneath a bed or in a closet. The advantage is they’re out of sight and mind.
Another independence building option is to add rails into their existing closet space. They’ll love that they can reach these rails and hang their own clothes. Make this a game and perhaps you’ll free yourself a weekly chore.
