Having fewer items in the room can make it more practical and easy to use. You can make your child’s room clutter-free yet simple and elegant by having dual-coloured walls with toned down colours. To add a more rustic vibe, include some wooden furniture. Simple shapes can go a long way; put in geometric shaped pendant lighting or a hexagonal rug to compliment the rest of the room.
#10: Vibrant pops of colour
There are times when neutral colours just don’t make the cut. Changing a subtle-coloured room into a bright popping one is not the hardest task. Some kids just need those vibrant bursts of colour to bring out their energies, don’t they?
These bright colours can be incorporated in any part of the room. This room has bright yellows and beaming blues alternating on the cupboard doors.

#12: Greens are goood!
The jade green of this room is quite breathtaking. The shades of green in this room blend in flawlessly with each other. The floral wallpaper creates an accent wall for the rest of the room with its floating petal patterns.
