opinions on decoration a playroom?
I am gutting my garage and making it into a playroom for my 1 and 3 year old boys. i am basically working with a blank palate. I love those cute cabinets with the cube storage. I saw this one at ikea and have basically decided to go with it. It is the dark wood and I lile dark wood for a boys space. I am trying to decide on a color that is fun but will look good with dark wood. I am driving myself crazy looking at HGTV all day. Any color ideas?
For boys, you can never go wrong with blue. As they are very little, you can try a powerful blue. I don’t think dark wood can contribute to child’s imagination as a lively color (blue, green, red, yellow).
Be careful with the cabinets and check their corners (some of them are really sharp, and rough).
You can also try adding some swinging horses and other kind of swings. Your boys will love them, and not just for the moment.
Also, you can add blackboards on your walls to provide them some drawing spaces.
you dont have to go to ikea just go to home depot get kitchen cabinets a beige would go good maybe put wall with blackboard paint so they dont write on the walls also a area to paint etc
and carpet that comes in squares so if anything is spilled it can be replaced its also waterproof
