When the home is decorated, the personal tastes of each one will always be taken into account, the functionality of each thing, the colors and the sensations that they transmit to us ... in the decoration of a children's bedroom it is exactly the same. When decorating the bedroom of a baby or a child, all the senses must be used to achieve the best results, and for this ... you will have to avoid making mistakes.
Although we know that erring is human, we also know that we have enough intelligence to be able to learn from our own mistakes, but also from those of others. In this sense, It should be noted that there are some errors that if you know them you can avoid them and in this way, to be able to decorate the children's bedroom with greater success.
The ideal, in addition to choosing the right colors for the children's bedroom, is to choose the pieces and furniture that complement the environment and with which you want to create a good atmosphere in your children's bedroom. But in any case and taking this into account, you need to avoid some too common mistakes due to ignorance, From now on you can't say I haven't warned you!
Choose furniture that is functional
Avoid overloading the baby's room. It is important that in order to keep the room well ventilated, that it is more practical and that it does not overwhelm, a good space is created for circulation (of air and people). In this sense, you will have to avoid having furniture that does not have a specific functionality. Avoid accumulating furniture and objects that are useless at all costs for you even if they are well-intentioned gifts from the family. It is important that you only have a fair amount of clothing (trust me, babies grow very fast and half of the things you will not be able to open them), and accessories that you will actually use every day or almost every day.
Be careful with the theme and decoration
It is important that when you go to decorate your baby's bedroom you do not think of a theme that could overload the decoration of the room too much. Although we know that decorating can be exhausting, I advise you that if you want to add a theme, don't use the same pictures and figures over and over again. It is better to opt for more neutral themes, remember that your child is a baby (or too young) and will define their tastes as they grow. If you decorate with a theme and overload it too much, when you have to redecorate the bedroom it can become too tedious a task.
The importance of textiles
Decorating a children's bedroom without taking textiles into account is like wanting to decorate a garden without flowers, it has no beauty. It is important to choose fabrics that are easy to clean and dry, that are materials that do not cause allergies, or that have a texture that may be uncomfortable for the baby. Make sure the texture is smooth and that the colors fit well with the decoration of the room and the chosen theme.
The textiles that you should take into account for the children's bedroom will always be two groups: the textiles for the bed or the textiles for the curtains.
Be careful with the curtains
The curtains you choose should be meticulously chosen. I am not referring to the design that will be based on the rest of the decoration, but you should think about its size. It is better to focus on a blind or at least the curtain does not reach the ground. Think that if your baby is small he will start to crawl and move, so he could roll in the curtain and suffocate in the worst case. You could also tear the curtain when playing with it, so the size you choose is very important to take into account.
Avoid rugs
You should also avoid rugs, because although they are beautiful and can help you achieve an excellent decoration by creating a warm and comfortable environment, it is better to leave it for when your child is older. Why is it like this? Carpets need special care and take time. TOAlthough if you really want to incorporate a rug into your children's room, then the ideal is to choose a model that is not slippery or that can provide any danger, thus you will avoid accidents and protect the child from possible allergies and unnecessary contamination.
Put safety guards on the sockets
Sockets in bedrooms can be highly dangerous for babies who are beginning to crawl or walk. Do not overlook them, you need to be very careful with them. To get to protect your baby, You can choose to buy safety plug protectors that you can find at any hardware store. So your child can explore without you being afraid of inadvertently sticking his fingers into a socket.
Do not be afraid in the decoration
Even if you see that you may have limitations in the decoration or that it is better that you focus on a neutral decoration to achieve good results for your child, do not be afraid to experiment new things. Creativity is the best way to achieve a truly original decoration full of personality. You can look for alternative ideas to ensure that the rooms are full of love so that your child feels welcomed and loved from his first days of life.
You can try style combinations such as vintage with rustic, or with color combinations that you thought could not go well, you can add a drawing or pictures on the wall made by you ... you choose! Let your imagination start to fly!
Have you ever decorated your children's bedroom? Did you make any mistakes? What do you think you have to take into account to avoid making mistakes and that the decoration is really charming? If the room is for a baby, you should think about everything, but if your children are over three years old, you can take their opinion and their personal tastes into account to be able to fully get the decoration right. Even if you make the most important decisions, remember that your opinion is also important.
