How You Can Give Your Kids a Bedroom Makeover They Will Love
Whether your kids have their own bedroom or they share a space, it is important to make it unique and special just as they are. A bedroom makeover may have been on the cards for a while, or it may have been a relatively new idea you have had. Whatever point you are at present, you need to start focusing on how you will makeover the bedroom and how you will make sure it has the impact and effect you want it to.
What is Working Now
Look at the bedroom as it stands and see what is working. Also, at this stage, see what your kids like about the space. When you can establish what is working now, you can then start pushing ahead and making changes where you need to. Through this process of evaluation, you may find that not everything needs to be changed. You may also find that your efforts and energy are focused on areas of the bedroom you had not thought about before, such as the soft furnishings, the drapes and the flooring.
Adding a Theme
Your kids may be mad about a film series, or they may love an action figure or playset. If you can, try and incorporate this into a theme for their bedroom. A themed bedroom can feel like a haven for a child (especially smaller children). If your child is not a fan of films or TV series, then do they have an idea they would like as a theme? For instance, do they like unicorns and fairies, or are they more into dinosaurs and dragons?
Making Sure Furniture is Suitable
A bedroom makeover may end up being bigger than you had originally planned. Sometimes one job can lead to another, and before you know it, you are looking at new beds and furniture. Looking at the furniture your kids have now is important. Is it going to last, and will
it still look good are two key questions that you should be asking yourself. After looking at your current furniture, you may find that the bedroom needs a new wardrobe or dresser. Or you may find that you need to consider bunk beds or bunk bed mattresses from reinforcedbeds.co.uk. Ensuring furniture is fit for purpose and usable (both now and in the future) is important. Durability and sustainability are essential when making over a kids’ bedroom.
Letting Your Kids Paint or Design Artwork
No matter how little (or big) your children are, you should still give them the opportunity to have a valuable input in their bedroom. This may mean that you let them design a piece of artwork you hang up in their bedroom. Or it may mean that you let them help with the painting and decorating. When you let your kids help you with their bedroom makeover, they feel involved and they feel listened to. When they have had their own input, they will have a greater connection to their bedroom. This then means that they should enjoy it more.
