Children’s Bathroom Decorating Ideas

Be sure, too, that any throw rugs on the floor outside the tub have a non-slip backing to keep kids from falling and hitting their heads on the tub. In addition, big, knobby clothes hooks will cause less head pain when bumped than pointed hooks. And, if you are adding a step stool to help little ones reach the faucet, be sure the bottom is equipped with non-skid rubber footings.

Creating plenty of storage in your child’s bathroom is a must, whatever the age of your child. Toddlers are surrounded by nappies, creams, powders and heaps of bath-toys, while teenagers can really accumulate those toiletries. Choose baskets or boxes without lids — that way there is more chance that they will actually be used! Keep storage boxes and baskets within easy reach. It is also a good idea to keep a shelf free near the basin or mirror, for those few items in constant daily use.

Now that you have created a safe, practical and neutral basis for your children’s bathroom, think about personalizing it, with a ‘splash’ of color. Combine your neutrals with a vibrant wall color. Try using your child’s favorite color on the walls. Or, choose from those perennial children’s bathroom favorites — bright blues, turquoise, orange, yellow or lime-green. Always use a specialist bathroom paint, which will help to prevent damp and mold growth.

Jazz up your bathroom decorating scheme with stencils, borders, wall murals, wall and tile transfers or stick on tile decorations. Ideal themes for decorating children’s bathrooms are boats, lighthouses, fish, mermaids, starfish or flowers. Carry your theme on, in your choice of accessories, too — shower curtains, towels, soap dispensers, toothbrush holders, light pulls etc.

Get as creative as you like — and have fun! You have created a great framework for decorating a children’ bathroom. The details can be quickly and easily changed now, as the kids get older, and tastes begin to change. (Via)
