Favorite Colors Give Inspiration For A Child's Room Decor
Children love color, so it is only befitting that you can build a color theme for their bedroom based on their favorite colors
. Not only will the room be appealing to them, it will make them feel like the space was personally designed for them.Conventional Colors
If your child loves friendly conventional colors like yellow, green or blue, it wont be difficult to imagine the walls painted in an appropriate shade of that color. Even if the favorite may be too dark for all the walls in the room, you can choose a lighter shade and then add accents in the bolder hue. For illustration, if your son is crazy about the color royal blue, like many boys, you can implement a cool denim blue to the walls and bring in white for the trim. Against this crisp palette you can then bring in the royal blue as bedding and bedding accents.
You can even outline the edges of a bookshelf, chair rail, use painted metal wall art or tropical wall hangings in the brighter blue and balance it with other bright colors like grassy green, red or bright yellow. Wall decals, stencils, accents and usable items like toys, walls hooks, and games can be used to repeat the bold colors against your more sedate backdrop.
When the Favorite Color is Black?
You may feel an initial sense of panic when your child tells you that their favorite color is black or when your daughter chooses an electric shade of purple for her bedroom decor. Using the favorite as an accent can create some very interesting and coordinated looks in the bedroom. Your first step is to figure out where the color inspiration is coming from for your child. For illustration, your son may be completely drawn to a football team that uses black in its team colors. In this case, you can use a neutral white for the walls and use the black and other team colors to accent the room. Of course, in this case, using the team logo and an overall football theme will make your son very happy.
The bright purple may be from an outfit worn by your daughters favorite singer or the sweater worn by a favorite doll. Again, you now have a motif to build upon that includes the inspiration and the color.
You can down play its effect by blending a bold color, like bright pink, with more sedate colors, such as pale blue, cream, gray, and pale pink. Bring these other colors into the mix as accents and through patterns and designs in fabrics and other accessories.
Accenting with Bold Color
Don't be frightened to implement bold colors in the teen's or child's bedroom. Starting with white or pale neutral walls, bold juicy colors like orange-aide, lime green and grape can be used as color accents in throw pillows, floor pillows, desk accessories, metal wall sculpture and accessories. Mix the colors in fresh modern designed fabrics and accessories. The biggest advantage of using this approach is that you can easily alter the accents and accessories when your child gets a little older and chooses a new favorite color.
