Children’s bedrooms – let your imagination go free!

October 22nd, 2008

I can’t wait to have children, just so that I have an excuse to decorate a child’s bedroom! There’s so much that can be done with a little imagination… I remember I used to love my first bedroom – one wall was covered in Peter Pan wallpaper – and not just a picture of him, but a whole beautiful scene – with Tinkerbell, Wendy, the boys! And I also had bedding and curtains to match… I wonder if there any companies out there that still do this kind of thing? Anyway, here are some really cool bedrooms, enjoy…

Isn’t this such a beautiful, cute little room? It’s girly but without going over the top with pink and flowers… And the house construction is a brilliant idea; not only does it give the beds a warm, cosy feeling, but I think it will also make the child really feel as if this is her own space…

Although these bedrooms have massively high ceilings, the rooms don’t feel cold at all and that’s because the owners have really put the height to good use, with the helicopter pendant in one room and the moon designs in the other!

Boys will always be boys. You can never go wrong with your son’s bedroom if you choose a car- shaped bed, and most definitely not, when it’s a Ferrari car!

This is the nursery of Chistina Aguilera’s son, Max. I love the wallpaper and the moon – must have cost a fortune, but why did they make it so sinister-looking though? I also think that it’s a fantastic idea to create a showcase of the crib and put it right in the middle of the room… we’re always tempted to squash things up against walls and corners, but this looks so much better! Have to say that the armchairs and carpet look a little grubby though…

This is a great room for any age really, but especially for a young teenager. Simple and cool… and who knows, if it’s looking so good, then they might even be inspired to keep it tidy!

    maybe, but I think it’s inspirational for children to have rooms like this to feed their imagination… i would like the top one as my room now! :-)

    I’ve found that children are seldom the ones afraid of being extreme. Thank you for sharing these.

    I saw a documentary the other day and the moon that is in christina’s son’s room was a prop from one of her concerts. I guess if she’d had known she’d be using it in her baby’s room she’d probably have told them to make it abit churpier : )

    where can we get these beds?

  9. Katie on June 3, 2010 11:39 pm

    hi Jessica, they are custom made to order, however it might be worth looking in some high street furniture stores for something similar

    I’m sorry Jessica but we just blog about things we like, we don’t actually sell the products. Perhaps you could have it custom made to your specification?
