When I think about a playroom space, I am reminded at how our family’s playrooms have evolved over the years and in the different homes we have lived in. \u00a0Certainly, it is a space that needs to grow with a family. \u00a0We have been working specifically on a playroom makeover to transition into more of a game room space over the past year. \u00a0While we are not totally done, we have found some really fun DIY playroom wall decor ideas<\/strong> that everyone is loving. \u00a0At the same time, I’ve rounded up some other ideas that we have either used in the past or DIY playroom wall decor options that would be great for a variety of ages!<\/p>\n There are so many incredible playroom design ideas out there and it will be important for you to narrow down the ideas<\/strong> that fit your play area space, children’s interests, needs, and ages, as well as your budget and home style. \u00a0Of course, no place space is complete without great solutions for a storage system and cozy accents<\/strong> too. \u00a0It is important to us that this kids’ space has great options to entertain older kids as well as be safe and comfortable for small children who may visit. \u00a0Basically, a game room for kids of all ages is our goal!<\/p>\n I’ve heard many parents say this over the years and it is true for our family as well. \u00a0I would much rather have all of our kids and their friends hanging out at our home (or the homes of close friends and family.) This world can be an interesting place but our family feels that it is so important to continue investing in great kids by giving them safe and wholesome ways to have a great time! \u00a0We are so thankful for our community and it makes me so, SO happy when our home is full of kids and teenagers having a great time together!<\/em><\/p>\n I can’t wait to show you some of the changes we’ve made and how we have found creative ways to make the space really fun for the entire family. \u00a0At the same time, we have worked hard to come up with fun designs for the blank walls that still blend with the overall aesthetic of our home.<\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/robynsfrenchnest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Chess-2-scaled.webp” alt=”large felt black and

used in the past, some are DIY playroom wall decor ideas we are currently enjoying, and others are ideas that look so fun and creative! \u00a0Sadly, there are just only so many walls in a playroom or game room space, right?!<\/em><\/p>\n Some of these ideas require some simple DIY projects while others can be purchased already created and ready to hang in your child’s playroom or kids’ room if they do not have a separate play space.<\/p>\n To me, playroom decor is a perfect way to create a play space where children and families, alike, love to hang out. \u00a0Therefore, it is helpful to have an aesthetically pleasing space while also using wall decor in functional ways too.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image

_builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Last summer, I learned about a new product and brand called Felt Right<\/a><\/span>.<\/strong>\u00a0 I instantly fell in love with the concept and new it would be a great fit for our game room. \u00a0Over the past year, we’ve been slowly been working on adding and transitioning this play room space to meet the evolving interests and needs of our growing children.<\/p>\n As a side note: they are growing way too fast! \u00a0At the same time, it’s such a fun season of life and we are just trying to soak it up!<\/em><\/p>\n While Felt Right has an incredible number of options to add their specially designed felt panels in a variety of colors and shapes to create DIY wall decor for any room, they also recently launched some fun board games for the wall.<\/strong> \u00a0Especially in a space where I want every inch to count, the board games are a great way to give kids even more fun ways to use the new playroom. \u00a0I also love that the board games cover a large section of the game room walls for color, texture, and interest.<\/p>\n For our Felt Right designs, we decided on the game board that can be used for chess or checkers, as well as the 9-panel tic-tac-toe game. \u00a0<\/strong>The colors are literally so perfect with our black and white color scheme. \u00a0The best part is the games encourage cooperative play<\/strong> and will be fun for our kids, their friends, and even adults who are hanging out in the game room to play pool, ping pong, or a variety of other activities!<\/p>\n The Felt Right product<\/span><\/strong><\/a> is super easy to hang and includes the adhesive tabs and all of the instructions you will need. \u00a0Robb used a measuring tape and level to get the first panel started for each of the board games. \u00a0Then, he worked off of the first panel, checking the level as he went to keep the board games going straight!<\/p>\n If DIY playroom wall decor in the form of board games isn’t the right fit for your space, still check out the Felt Right brand and product. \u00a0They have amazing ideas to help you get started. \u00a0Whether you want soft neutrals or vibrant colors, a large wall installation or an easy project to add color and interest to a child’s room, you’ll love what you find. \u00a0We are huge fans of Felt Right<\/a><\/strong><\/span> and their amazing customer service support too!<\/em><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image

global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n While floating shelves<\/u><\/strong><\/a> could easily be used for a large playroom wall, I think they are one of my favorite ideas for a small wall too. \u00a0At our last house, we had a small storage nook under our stairs. \u00a0Adding book ledges<\/u><\/strong><\/a>, we turned the wall of this tiny space into a revolving library where I could display our kids’ favorite books and rotate fun books for the holidays and season.<\/p>\n Taking that same concept, I added floating book shelves to my classroom<\/u><\/strong> <\/a>as well. \u00a0It is the perfect place to guide the students to books that tie into our curriculum themes, activities, and Montessori-style lessons. \u00a0It is also a cute way to incorporate different colors.<\/p>\n For example, with my current Community Helpers theme, many of the book covers display a color scheme of red and blue. \u00a0However, soon we will transition into a Spring Garden theme and this DIY playroom wall decor opportunity will become an explosion of vibrant colors for spring. \u00a0While the shelves make a fun wall decor spot, they are also super functional and help make books a huge part of our classroom design.<\/p>\n Harrison’s room is another fun example of using floating shelves for DIY playroom wall decor.<\/u><\/strong><\/a> \u00a0We used these vintage metal shelves on the main wall over his desk. \u00a0Since he is at that age to have trophies, LEGOs, and other objects to display, the shelves turn these special pieces into wall art instead of cluttering up the desk top.<\/p>\n Whether you have a rustic or modern playroom, there are many options of floating shelves that are pre-made and ready to hang. \u00a0You can also turn floating shelves<\/u><\/a> into a great DIY project for playroom walls that will be functional and add an aesthetically pleasing design style to the kids’ room as well!<\/strong><\/p>\n \u200b<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image

_builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n One of my students’ favorite spots in our classroom is the simple gallery wall<\/u><\/strong> <\/a>beside their cubbies. \u00a0Why? \u00a0Well, children’s favorite wall decor is definitely their OWN DIY craft projects and art projects. \u00a0They are proud to display their creations to share with their parents and friends.<\/p>\n For the easiest DIY playroom wall decor, I highly recommend THESE simple cables with clips and hooks<\/u><\/a>.<\/strong> \u00a0It is an easy way to display those special papers from school and fun creations in their free time at home. \u00a0At the same time, it is quick and easy for you to switch out their artwork<\/u><\/strong><\/a> as their inner artist is busy creating special new DIY playroom wall decor to hang up!<\/p>\n Pro Tip: If your children are younger, hang these cables at a height where the children can easily see them.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n If you hang them very high, they are completely out of sight, out of mind for the younger children. \u00a0However, hanging the cables where children can see their artwork is a really fun idea and allows them to be more interactive. \u00a0Plus, it makes the space feel very special to them as they know their creativity is valued and encouraged.<\/strong><\/p>\n The cable system is very inexpensive<\/u><\/strong><\/a>, making it great for tight budgets. \u00a0You can also create a DIY version of this with hooks or nails and twine. \u00a0However, I do love that the cable system is more secure and it will last you for years to come.<\/p>\n \u200b<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image

text_font_size=”16px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n One of my favorite things in my preschool classroom are the large, plush animal heads<\/u><\/strong><\/a> that hang around the room. \u00a0The larger size allowed me to hang them high enough to make sense for the space but still be visible and fun for my young students. \u00a0Also, the plush animal heads<\/u><\/strong><\/a> add a lot of texture and character to the room. \u00a0Instead of all of the wall decor being flat to the wall, the cute animals add dimension. \u00a0Plus, they are just plain fun while adding a little bit of whimsy<\/u><\/strong><\/a> to this early childhood classroom.<\/p>\n There are many different styles available<\/u><\/strong><\/a> and they are also really fun for a themed nursery. \u00a0What babies or children don’t love cute animals?! \u00a0It’s an all-time favorite and something that you can incorporate into different kids’ rooms as they grow and change too. \u00a0Plush animal

has a lot of natural light. \u00a0Natural light is healthy and makes a space feel bright and happy for the whole family. \u00a0At the same time, if you have a lot of windows, it leaves less opportunity for playroom wall decor ideas.<\/p>\n One way that I added interest and decor to the walls of my classroom and to my kids’ rooms at home also was to have custom awnings made to go over their windows.<\/strong> \u00a0As you can see, it is a simple wooden frame with your choice of covering. \u00a0While it is a relatively easy DIY playroom wall decor idea, we had a friend to make ours as we were renovating and had a lot going on! \u00a0However, some simple knowledge of tools would make these simple to build.<\/p>\n You could choose bright colors with fabric, natural tones, or even shape that ties in with the rest of the playroom space.<\/p>\n Even though this is a non-functional wall decor idea, it is one that adds so much dimension and aesthetic fun to a kids’ room. \u00a0<\/strong>It is a playroom wall decor idea that is good for making a big statement with tight budgets…remember, I said we were renovating at the time?!\u00a0 Haha!<\/p>\n

of time every day cleaning up the space, it’s likely going to often have somewhat of a mess in one corner or another. \u00a0However, there are a few simple principles you can use as you set up a playroom space<\/strong> that will help you go a little less insane when you step into the play space.<\/p>\n \u200b<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Color Scheme and Simple Storage Solutions” _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Choose a very simple color scheme<\/strong> and incorporate it throughout the space with paint color, a soft rug, comfy pillows, DIY playroom wall art, and large pieces. \u00a0For example, when my girls’ were little, their play kitchen was white and gray. \u00a0Play kitchens are large pieces that cannot be put away in a basket or in a closet. \u00a0So, if possible, choose larger pieces that can fit with your color scheme.<\/p>\n I am a big believer in teaching children how to clean up and help themselves.<\/strong> \u00a0A playroom space is the perfect place for them to learn. \u00a0However, as the adult, you need to create organization and storage that makes sense for them and is easily accessible. \u00a0Simple shelves that are uncluttered, storage bins with picture labels, and time spent training where to put new toys away will all make the kids’ playroom more enjoyable for everyone. \u00a0The best part is that your child is learning valuable skills of independence and organization! \u00a0Over on THIS blog post, you can get ideas for playroom storage and toy organization that we have found helpful in our family!<\/p>\nHow to Decorate a Wall in a Playroom?<\/em><\/h3>\n
