Kids Bedding Experts Offer Tips on Decorating Your Child's Room To Last

If your kids outgrow their bedroom décor anywhere near as fast as they outgrow their shoes, you're in trouble. While there's no way to prolong the length of time their shoes will fit, you can design their bedroom to keep them happy for a long time by following these helpful hints.

#1 Choose a color palette and fabrics instead of a theme. Children grow so fast, and their interests change so quickly. To decorate your child's bedroom so it lasts from the crib to kindergarten and beyond, choose a color palette instead of a theme. Try drawing from his or her favorite toys for inspiration! Pulling colors and fabrics from favorite stuffed animals or dolls can be very helpful in determining what your child will like. A foundation like this can be easily updated and refreshed over the years with new kids bedding and affordable accessories that make it seem like a brand new room.

#2 Leave it open enough to let your child's personality really shine. In other words, don't "finish" everything. Kids like their rooms to be extensions of themselves, so be sure to leave some space for your kid to have "free reign." Set up a designated area where they can express themselves, hang pictures, display achievements, artwork, photos of friends and family or whatever they like. You'll find this freedom will keep them happy a lot longer.

#3 Include your child in the decision-making. If they're old enough to help, let them tell you what they like and don't like—after all it is their room. Shopping online can be an easy way to find really special items that your kids will love! The Domestic Bin carries a wide selection of kids bedding for your child to choose from, with styles for infants, toddlers and teens. Whether you're looking for cartoon characters, sports prints or delicate nature prints, you're sure to find a pattern they will love.

#4 Go basic on curtains and bedskirts and update regularly with affordable items. Since curtains and bedskirts are the last to wear out, be sure to choose subtle colors that tend to go with everything. You can give the room a whole new look as often as necessary by updating the more affordable items in the room, like sheets and throw pillows. Name brand kids bedding and accessories can be found at discount prices online at The Domestic Bin, making it affordable enough to replace as your kids get older.
