CLEVER DECORATING
GIVE THEM A LIFETIME OF GREAT MEMORIES WITH THESE CREATIVE ROOM IDEAS
Upgrade basic bunks
Turn bunk beds into stylish, enclosed sleeping pods with a bespoke decorative frame. Paint the back wall to match and add a curtain to make them even more snug.
Personalise each bunk bed with different artwork, cushions and bed linen.
LIGHT THE WAY
Fit each bunk with a wall-hung light that pivots to where it’s needed
Make a bookshelf house
Cut-outs of left-over wallpaper create a wall feature and give simple cube storage the potential to be used as a doll’s house as well as hold toys.
Supersize the house by using multiple cube units and drops of wallpaper.
BLURRED BACKDROP
Choose a contrasting paper with a small-scale design
Create a view on the ceiling
Give little ones something to look up to by papering the fifth wall in an abstract pattern. With high ceilings, you could continue down to the picture rail as a border.
Paint the coving and dado in a contrasting colour to add even more decorative detail.
CORONET CURTAIN
Create a magical look with a ceiling-hung drape that can stay when the bed changes
