Decorating Boys Bedrooms

Kids Bedroom Idea Guides for Boys Aged 4-12

When decorating boys bedrooms you should typically use bolder colors. Paint is the least inexpensive way to change a boys' bedroom but be sure to choose your color after you have made your other selections.

Wallpaper Borders

Wallpaper borders are easy to use and the new improved products make it easy to install and remove which makes them very useful for renters or any homeowner who wants easy removal after their child's interest change. See Themes for the borders available.

Wallpaper Murals

Murals are a convenient way to give a lot of impact when decorating boys bedrooms. The boys wallpaper murals install like wallpaper and come in narrow panel widths for ease of installation. You can turn a playroom into a prehistoric land or a plain wall into outer space.

Wallpaper murals can transport your child into another place and time! If you do not want the time involved in installation, try one of the minute murals that hang like art work but gives you the effect of a mural.

Sudden Shadow Murals

One of the newest products available that is both easy to install and remove are the Sudden Shadow Murals. They take on whatever color is behind them because they are a neutral gray and are inexpensive but very impactful over a bed or chest. Use some of the new Simply Stripe Borders to add to the drama.

Wallpaper Appliques

Want super easy? Use Wallpaper Appliques in the theme of your choice. Repositionable and removable, wallpaper appliques add pizzazz to any surface --- painted walls, ceiling, windows, doors, mirrors, tile, furniture or lamp shades.

Use in combination with a wallpaper border or alone. Kids love to decorate their walls with this easy to use product. Also a good choice for bathrooms and playrooms!

Boys Room Furnishings

A lamp, rug and art are easy ways to create a boys bedroom theme and can easily be changed out when the child has outgrown the look. See your favorite boys bedroom theme for accessories available. The Décor section can be helpful if you are looking for a particular item, such as a mirror or washable rugs.

When choosing furnishings, consider the use of second hand furniture that can be painted a bright color to coordinate with your other selections. Or apply appliques to give the furniture a unique look or add drawer pulls to carry the theme. Look for the off beat when decorating boys bedrooms, such as a metal locker for storage in a Space room. Or a keg or barrel as an end table in a Pirate theme bedroom. Willow rustic furniture has been used in the Age of Reptiles room pictured above.
