Create a Wonderland
Fun Wall Décor
I am such a huge fan of fun wall décor for children's rooms! Pictures, postcards or magazine clippings are the perfect solution. Try hanging them with masking tape, or make a creative photo wall collage. It makes the room feel more fun and definitely won't break the bank.

The Perfect Bed
Beds for kids come in all different shapes and sizes, and can be designed to fit any home or child's room. I definitely believe that a bed can make or break the room. With so many different options out there on the market, trying to decide which bed is right for your kid's room will all depend on your style and aesthetic. I for one am a huge fan of Kalon Studios' beds. They offer simple yet beautifully designed statement pieces.

The Rug
Is it hard for you to find that perfect rug? There are endless rugs out there but finding what is right for your child's space can be difficult. Here are a few tips for finding the perfect one:
- Get something cute in a pattern that will grow with them
- Measure the space before you go shopping so you don't get something that's too small or big for the room
- Choose a rug type based on how your child is going to use it (i.e., if they are going to play on it, be sure to get a rug pad)

DIY Clothing Rack
Make a fun focal point in your child's room by creating a DIY clothing rack. It's the perfect display for your child's favorite clothes, but it's also convenient for changing her clothes as well. You can create a similar look to this clothing rack by selecting a sturdy tree branch and painting it white. Hang it and voilà … you're all set!
