4 kids’ bedroom ideas and playroom ideas

Have a whale of a time

Painting a wall mural is a great way for you to play with colour and create an inspiring kid’s bedroom. Choose a theme that speaks to their personality and interests, it could be a mountain scene for a little explorer or a wild backdrop for an animal lover.

We painted this ocean-inspired kids’ bedroom design in just 4 hours. You don’t have to be arty to bring this seascape to life, just watch our YouTube video for expert tips, and use Dulux Simply Refresh One Coat and Feature Wall paint colours.

Go for the win

With vibrant colours, bold stripes and graphic numbers, this sports-themed kid’s bedroom is sure to score points with any budding athlete or devoted fan. Creating a kid’s bedroom design that echoes their energy levels, will also keep their creativity flowing, even after practice! Kick off your transformation with these simple steps.

Keep it simple

Playroom decorating ideas don’t have to be theme based. By simply choosing your little one’s favourite shades, you can create a space that’s totally unique to them. And why stick to the walls? Add blocks of colour to furnishings or shelving to liven up their room and show off their personality. How about a cool combo of Summer Medley 4, Javan Dawn 2 and Kiwi Burst 2?

Do not disturb

As your children grow, they’ll want to have their own personal space. But this can be tricky if they’re sharing a room. Painting a diagonal and colourful divider is a clever kids’ bedroom design that can give each sibling their own separate area and keep everyone happy. Start by choosing two separate colour palettes, then learn how to paint stripes, which you can do here.
