10 great ideas for decorating boys rooms

Are you looking for some new ideas for your son’s room? Here are 10 great decorating ideas for your boy’s room.

1.     Communicate – Talk to your son and listen to his ideas, how does he want his room. Involve your son, let him help. He will feel so proud of him self for helping bringing things in to the room or organize a shelf…  Have fun together!

2.     Decide colors – What colors do you want on the walls and on the floor? Do you want to paint the ceiling? Do you want to paint the walls or put wall paper up? You can make a large room feel cozy with warm colors. You open up a small room with cool colors or neutrals.

3.     Pick a theme – A boys theme could be safari, animals, cars, airplanes, trains, outer space, army, sports, pirates, cowboy, dinosaurs, knights, a favorite cartoon character… What is your son’s biggest interest? That’s your theme. If he loves blue and animals, make that your theme.

4.     Use the theme – You can use your theme on the bedspread, pillows, a rug, curtains, murals, pictures, art, wall hangings, things that are easy to change if your son grows out of a theme.

5.     Organize –  If you organize the room in a way that is easy for him to help cleaning up, he is more likely to do so. The more storage you have, the better. Make sure the big toys have there spots. Use big bins for small toys so it is just to throw it all in. The easier it is to keep the room clean, the cleaner it will remain. If you have a lot of closet space, organize one of them as toy storage.

6.     Accessories - If you want to keep the walls in one color you can always dress the walls up with colorful accessories. Put murals, wall hangings, pictures or even a little message on your son’s wall. If your theme is animals, take a picture at the zoo and put on his wall.

7.     Your son’s art - Your son’s drawings and paintings make great art and add nice colors to the room. Frame a few pieces and put them up. You can also put a string up with two nails and fasten the paintings on the string with paperclips. Your son will be so proud seeing his own art on the wall.

8.     Open book shelf - Get your son an open book shelf, were you can display the front of his favorite books. Make sure it is in a level were he can reach the books him selves. If your theme is animals put his favorite animal books up.

9.     Space - If your son is younger make sure he has lots of space on the floor to play. If you have an older boy he wants areas were he can do his home work and hang out with his friends.

10.  Small table and chairs for play - This will bring out creativity and fantasy. Here he can play with puzzles, draw or have a snack. If you have an older son put in a desk for him instead.
