Are you looking for a new theme for your child's bedroom? If so you may want to consider doing a puppy or kitten theme. Most children adore animals and will be thrilled with this home decor theme. Also, if you live in a home that is too small for pets or someone in your household has allergies this will be a great way to give your child a makeshift pet. While nothing truly takes the place of a pet that can return their love a good pet themed decor for your child's bedroom can surround them with the joy offered by a pet's smiling face.

For this project I suggest choosing a wall paper with an animal theme. Puppies, kittens, bunnies, and many other lovable pets are offered in various patterns and colors. If wall paper is out of your price range create you may be able to create your own. To do this, choose a solid color for your wall. I prefer white, but any will work. Next find some stickers that have the pet you desire. Buy several hundred of these and place in a pattern on at least one wall. If you have used white paint the border of the sticker will not be noticeable, however if you did not use white you may want to edge the stickers in your background color so that it all appears to be one piece. The cost of this project will depend on the size of your room. My daughter's room is 6' X9' and I was able to do her walls for only about $30.00.

Next find a comforter set with the desired pet. This will begin to create your room's focal point. In almost any bedroom the bed will be the focal point, so decorate it well. Besides the comforter set find stuffed animals and throw pillows that match your theme and color scheme. It is very important to match this room rather than blend it. Matching will help young children learn about color, tone, and hue. It will also help them learn to recognize patterns.

Another accessory that will help your child recognize color and pattern is an area rug. Area rugs come in all shapes, sizes and patterns. Area rugs are easy to clean and provide sound insulation. When choosing an area rug for this room, look for a rug in your color scheme that has many different geometrical shapes. If the area rug also features the pet your child's room theme is built around that is fantastic. If not buy a stamp that features your selected pet and use paint to stamp the image on each shape. You now have an area rug that educates as well as decorates.
