To keep your child's room looking harmonious, you'll want their kids' wall art to complement their decor. Here's how to find the right pieces.
Themed decor
If your kid's bedroom has a distinct theme, such as princesses, outer space, or the sea, it is a good idea to look for kids' wall art that features items, animals, or persons from that theme.
This can range from obvious to discreet, depending on the other items of decoration in your child's room. Choose simple art depicting a single item or person in rooms that are already rich in detail.
If you have a simple background to work with, choose a larger scene with multiple points of interest.
Color
Using kids' wall art to pick up an accent color in their bedroom is a great way to incorporate different styles of artworks.
Either focus on a color in the picture itself, or a brightly colored frame. Choose a secondary or tertiary color that features in your child's bedroom, such as one found on their bedding, furniture or curtains.
General Style
Modern or traditional style bedrooms look better with different types of kids' wall art.
Modern
- Opt for abstract images featuring bright colors.
- Canvas art works well in modern bedrooms whatever the subject matter.
- Large mono letters in metallic shades also add a modern touch.
- Large full door or wall stickers featuring realistic or imagined scenes can also enhance the appearance of a modern style child's bedroom.
Traditional
- Growth charts are a traditional favorite and often have a range of traditional motifs.
- Blue or pink are traditional for nurseries. You may want to decorate your baby's room with pink or blue wall art. This can be less overwhelming than a floor-to-ceiling color.
- Framed kid's wall art also works well in traditional style kids' rooms. Wooden, white or gilded frames give a nod to traditional rooms of days gone by, regardless of their subject matter.
