Stylish Not Childish rugs

Recently I was working with a client and when we arrived at the doorstep of her child's room she said I want a stylish but not overly childish rug! This is a comment I hear very often from parents! Whether the rug is being used as a play area in a corner of the living room or in the bedroom they are not interested in cutesy Disney cartoon figures. They prefer a rug that balances a child like attitude but feels a bit more mature!

What do you have in your child's room? Do you go the route of a solid adult like, a more modern version like above or do you like the cartoon figures?

Budget Friendly Wall Decor Ideas - Kids Room

Wall Decals are the perfect way to decorate and they are inexpensive! I love the idea you can remove them easily and as the kids grow change them out. A quick tip when hanging the stickers is to make sure they are "attached" to the pieces of furniture. This will connect the pieces and create a easy flow or "story"Above you can see they have done this with the Bee buzzing close to the chair and crib! Perfect!



A simple molding strip with tacks attached create an instant gallery look for your child's artwork.



I love purchase really nice frames and display the budding artists artwork! It is such a joy to have pieces to show off in a nice decorative way. The difficult part is swapping them out from time to time. There are so many good options!
