New Ideas in Wallpaper for Kids Bedrooms

Wallpaper is a great choice for kids' rooms. No need to keep it to stodgy styles, though. Here are some fun ideas:

• Mix it up Stripes with florals, geometric with fun prints, and even multiple patterns in varying sizes can make a kid's room exciting. Check collections of related patterns from one manufacturer to make it easier to choose patterns that work together.
• Use borders and friezes. Instead of papering the whole room, combine fresh paint with border designs, paper murals, and other accents. This can be an economical option for a room you want to change frequently. You never know when that obsession with ponies will gave way to robot madness!

• Be practical Wallpaper varies considerably in its care requirements. Make sure the paper you choose for your childrens' rooms is washable.
