Make a ’tile’ statement

Decorating your child’s bathroom can be fun. Each and every corner of the bathroom is about fun. It’s the place where they’re likely to start and end each day, so make sure it feels welcoming. You have to make a space with bold themes and interesting details. Don’t forget to fill the space with soft textures and smart organization tricks.

Kids interests and personality are very important if you want to make a place where they will feel comfortable. Put colorful tiles and accessories inspired by Disney characters or cute animals. Keep the bathroom colorful and tidy with coordinated storage for toiletries and more.

Turnkey bedroom solutions | little pipal

For a child, a bedroom is more than just a place to sleep. It’s a spot to do schoolwork, play games, read, daydream, visit with friends and stockpile toys. As you plan out your child’s bedroom, you’ll need a space that serves all those functions — and is comfortable and practical for several years to come. The ultimate experts on what kids like best are kids themselves, so get them involved in the design process by letting them help with selections. That being said, children’s preferences change often, so use accessories and colors that be easily replaced. Overall, whether you’re decorating a playroom, bedroom or nursery, be sure to think about fun, growth and practicality.

When designing a child’s room, think about color, color and more color. Incorporate a favorite hue on the walls or bring in bright accents, but stick with neutral furniture that doesn’t need to be swapped out as interests change. While the furniture should be appropriate for your child’s age, it also should be something that can grow with him or her. Get full-sized dressers and cabinets that can last through the school years, and consider a bunk bed, which is great to share with siblings. As they get older and no longer want to share a room, you can add a desk underneath the top bunk. With so many toys and clothes, storage is key. Add built-ins if you can, but cubbies and shelves are also great for those on a budget.
