Playful Painting
Ideas for Boys Bedroom Decor
Painting a boy's bedroom is a delight.
Plain white walls are okay, but character and theme make
painting a boy's bedroom really fun. Something spunky,
something sporty, something full of boyish charm.
And, of course, painting a boy's
bedroom is a cheap way to get a boy's bedroom like no other.
So here's a bucketful of painting
ideas to try when painting some lucky boy's bedroom.
Painting a Boy's Bedroom Out
of This World
Create the feel of outer space on your boy's bedroom walls.
Paint two opposing walls in lime green, the other two in
navy blue. Then stick star and planet stickers on the walls,
to create an outer space boy's bedroom decor. Hang space
ship models from the ceiling using fishing fire, and stick
glow-in-the-dark star stickers on the ceiling (reference: Glow
in the dark kids decor ideas.)
Painting a Nascar Boy's
Bedroom
If your boy loves Nascar, bring the
excitement home by painting his bedroom to match. Paint the
lower half of your boy's bedroom wall in checkered black and
white. Begin by painting the wall in white.
Once dry, tape printer paper to the
wall to form a checkered look. Make sure to roll the tape
under the paper, so none of it sticks out. Next, to ensure
that you paint your boy's bedroom in perfect checkers, cut
long strips of painter's tape and secure the checkered
pattern along the edges, both horizontally and vertically.
Now paint your boy's bedroom wall with black spray paint.
Finally, add pizzazz to your boy's bedroom by painting the
top portion of the wall in his favorite shade of blue. Paint
the number of his favorite Nascar driver over his bed and
hang checkered Nascar flags or car stickers on the walls.
Painting a Surfer Boy's
Bedroom
Bring the summer into your boy's
bedroom all year round. Paint each wall in a different shade
of blue. Then hang cheap surf boards from the ceiling. Cut
clouds out of cardboard paper and use spray glue to stick
them to the walls. Take an old surf board and spray paint
your boy's name at the center, then hang over his bed. Use
palm tree curtains and ocean bedding.
Painting a Fantasy Boy's
Bedroom
Paint the accent wall of your boy's
bedroom in deep purple, then use metal spray paint to draw a
road made of two parallel yet curving lines that draw near
and nearer until they finally meet.
Fill in the space between the lines to highlight the road.
Then hang a short silver curtain over the wall to conceal
the meeting of the lines.
Enhance the fantasy boy's bedroom look
by elevating furniture on clear plastic bins, as if its
hovering in midair. Add lava lamps and electricity globes.
Painting a Bicycle Boy's
Bedroom
Paint your boy's bedroom in earth
tones, then paint a trail on the accent wall by drawing two
parallel yet curving lines that draw nearer and nearer until
they meet high on the wall. Add bicycle wall stickers along
the trail (like BMX bike stickers). Hang bicycle helmets
from the ceiling, and park a bicycle in the corner.
