When it comes to ideas for children’s bedrooms or baby's nursery decor ideas the possibilities are endless. But as children tend to change their minds easily, it’s advisable to keep the furniture neutral and really go to town on the walls. Or go beyond the town…all the way to infinity and beyond!

So you can have great fun making a focal point that really provides a sense of contrast, making your design choice as ambitious as you like. It’s also achievable in a weekend and doesn’t cost as much as decorating all the walls.
