I'm going to move into a new house soon, and need some ideas. I am due with a baby boy in November, but I already have furniture and Noah's Ark bedding for him. I also have a 13 month old boy but have no idea what I want to do for his room. He has always slept in bed with us and never had his own room so I have nothing for him (actually, the furniture and bedding for boy #2 was originally for my oldest but never came out of storage and has never been used). The room he will be in has a high bay window, too. I want to do something original with the paint, maybe a cool theme room. I don't want any cartoon characters, though. I refuse to do winnie the pooh or cars or anything too cliche. I like the idea of maybe a forest theme with trees painted on the walls, or a beach theme - something like that.
Any suggestions?
Toddler bedroom? (Also in Home %26amp; Garden)?
since his room has a large bay window (lucky little one!) I would definitely go with a "nature theme"...think in terms of longevity (you might not want to do a mural of trees only to find out in a few yrs he's a sports fanatic and hates camping lol)
use decorative accents to match your theme (and you can buy a white "wallpaper" type materieal so your decorations aren't permanent)
example- an outdoorsy theme- light blue walls...darker blue as you get to the ceiling...those cool glow in the dark star constellations) hang a fishing pole on the wall, etc...
beach theme would be good too (same kind of color scheme...you could use beach balls, umbrellas, sea shells, sand art etc)
have fun!
Reply:it sounds like you know what you want kinda, look into pottery barn, they have some great ideas for boy rooms, they have a bed shaped like a boat, ask you local lowes or home depot about paint and how to, they are a great help. but also a room to grow with would be a sports room.
Reply:Well all boys love Thomas The Tank Engine, i have an 11yr old boy who has loved Thomas since he was a baby and now my 3yr old loves it. You can get cute Thomas beds and chairs and even wall decos
