Designing a Darling Kid's Room with Baseball Bedroom Decor

There's just something about kids and baseball. After all, it's the national pass time, and kids start young. They dream of being professional baseball players with fantastic pitching arms and amazing batting skills, and they admire major league players. What better way could you encourage your child's imagination than by providing him with a baseball-themed bedroom? There are so many different products on the market now that you'll be able to provide your child with the perfect place to dream, to study, and to sleep.

Starting with the walls, there are plenty of baseball wallpaper, borders, and huge murals of scoreboards and players for you to choose from. If you want to begin by painting the walls, choose a color associated with your child's favorite team. Keep the colors light and add bright and primary accents which will look the most authentic, like the colors of the team's caps. From there you can add life-sized murals of pitchers, catchers, umpires, and batters. Layer them over each other, such as an umpire with a catcher in front of him and a batter in front of them all, to make authentic wall scenes. You will also find murals that cover an entire wall and look like the crowd in the stands at a baseball game.

Once you've got the walls taken care of, you can think about flooring. One good choice might be green carpeting which will be soft for your child to play on and will give the illusion of the grass on a baseball diamond. Other choices include patterned carpets or area rugs that look like baseballs. You will also find a large array of different bedding sets that feature balls, players, and even baseball cards, so your child will be able to choose his favorites. Then you can select curtains to match, and hang them using baseball bats as rods, or you can hang baseball pennants as valances.

Accessories abound to accent your baseball bedroom décor. There are special ceiling fans with light fixtures that look like baseballs and arms resembling bats, or you can refurbish your existing fan by painting the blades with team colors and decoupaging them with baseball cards. Dozens of accessories are available for your baseball-themed room. You can purchase adorable table lamps, wall clocks, team posters, or a locker. Make sure you allow your child to help you design his room, and he's sure to love it for many years to come.
