As a result of the popularity of this type of theme, styling your kid’s bedroom in a jungle thee couldn’t be easier as it lets you explore your creativity and work with whichever animals your child prefers (perhaps even focusing on their favourite jungle animal like a lion, zebra, monkey or anything else they would like!).

night sky from the comfort of their own room!

 |

6: PEEK-A-BOO ANIMALS
If you
have a really young child who’s interests perhaps haven’t surfaced yet, the
best way to decorate their room is to choose a central child-like theme and run
with that.
A theme
like general ‘animals’ might seem like it’s too broad to be able to decorate an
entire room around, but it’s actually a brilliant way to make the space
creative and youthful, but also keep it broad enough to occupy your child until
they can choose a theme themselves!
One
wonderful way of using this theme is to choose a feature wallpaper and then
simply paint the rest of the walls in a hard-wearing paint which works with the
colour scheme.
 |
| Decorating Centre Online- Peek a Boo Wallpaper Grey £12.99 |
A wallpaper
like our Peek a Boo Wallpaper Grey is perfect for this kind of space as it incorporates
a wide variety of different animals on the paper, as well as being a gender-neutral
colour too!
With this
kind of theme, the toys which are displayed don’t matter as they will always work
with the rest of the menagerie which are on the wallpaper, creating an overall
cute feel to the space.

7: MERMAID MAGIC
Mermaid’s
are always an amazing way of styling your kid’s bedroom. Not only do they have
a wonderful magic about them which encourages creativity and imagination, but
they are also fab to build a whole room scheme around too.
With this
type of theme, using bright colours works the very best as mermaids are
typically associated with pinks and purples as well as other marine colours
like blue, green and turquoise too.
 |

brilliant theme is a popular one right now which means that it will be very easy

8: UNDER THE SEA
Just like
the mermaid theme, a theme like Under the Sea can work in a great way if your
child is more inclined towards ocean themes rather than mermaid themes!
Obviously,
a blue theme is fab for this, but you can also incorporate greens and even
purples into the theme in order to break up the colours in the room.
 |
| Decorating Centre Online- Watercolour Polka Dots Wallpaper Blue & Teal £12.99 |
Using a
mural might be a great way of making this theme pop in your space, but even
wallpapers such as our Watercolour Polka Dots Wallpaper Blue & Teal which

the sea’ themed.
By using a
wallpaper like the one above and a similar blue and/or teal theme for the other
walls, you can use this theme in a subtle, but very effective way.
