Creating the perfect kids room can be expensive. Why not save money and make your childs room unique with DIY projects? They are fun to do and having custom pieces just for them will make your child smile.
In todays article, we are going to take a look at some of the easiest and inexpensive ways to create room ideas that are tailored specifically to your child. We are sure that you will find that creating a beautiful space for your child is a lot easier than you might think.
Check out the list below for some crafty ideas to make your kids room fun!
1. Pallet Shoe Organizer
Organize your kids messy pile of shoes with this cute idea. Simply set a pallet on its end and then screw it onto the wall. If you do not want to damage the wall, then you can even use wall adhesion velcro that should work just as well. Just be sure that the velcro you use will be able to hold at least 50 pounds. Once your pallet is situated on the wall, you can simply store your childs shoes away.
What is great about this idea is the fact that you can tailor the design of the pallet so that it suits your childs room perfectly.
You can paint or stain the pallet any color your child wants, so this would work for any bedroom! Plus no more tripping over loose shoes or frantically trying to find a sneakers mate as you race out the door before school.
If you are going to stain or design it, but be sure you do so before you hang it up against the wall.
2. Ping Pong Ball Lights
Add some light and color to your childs room with this idea from Say Yes. With just a string of LED Christmas lights and some ping pong balls, you can make your kids room glow.
Just cut holes in the tops of the ping pong balls, slip them over the light bulbs, and hang the lights around the window, above her bed, or along the ceiling. This DIY is cheap and fast to make but will make his room cozy and fun!
If you only have white lights and not colored ones, you can easily remedy this by dipping the ping pong balls into light colored acrylic paints. You can even spray paint the ping pong balls as well. If you want to avoid that step altogether, you can find pre painted and already colored ping pong online as well if you would like to skin the painting step altogether.
