Boys Bedroom Ideas

It is now over 3 years since I last upgraded Matthew’s bedroom. The time I decorated and painted his room I was 20 weeks pregnant with him. That is quite some time ago. He is nearly 3 1/2 years old now and I think he deserves a more boyish room other Winnie Pooh all over the place in his room. I spent a long time on one of my favourite platform Pinterest lately to look for some ideas what I can turn his room into.


Originally I planned to paint it a different blue and just add some Disney Cars stickers or Thomas the Tank engine. But lately he is on and off with his likings for his characters. At the moment he likes Mickey Mouse again and Paw Patrol and Blaze and the Monster machine. I would be forever updating his room.

So basically I started looking for more general stuff but still have a car theme.

I really like the idea of having a cream wall. Our whole house is cream in fact.Boys Bedroom Idea

I love this idea. It has a bit of everything. The blue colour at the bottom wall means it will save me time because his room is already painted like that. The only thing I have to repaint is the top because his room is a lighter cream. I love the combination of these two coming together. The road in the middle adds to it. It might take some time to draw it but once I have a bit of time on my hands I like doing this sort of stuff.

For the walls I am thinking of drawing some of these characters on a piece of paper and adding each of them into a frame and hang them around in his room or paint them onto a canvas. They are so cute looking aren’t they?

Furthermore I am looking for some bunting to hang around his room. Something like above to replace the Winnie Pooh stickers above his changing unit drawer which will now act as a shelf.

I haven’t quite decided what personal touch I want to add above his bed. Right now he has a photo of himself when he was 6 weeks old and beside it I have a saying stuck to it from Ebay “First we had each other, then we had you, now we have everything”.

I also bought a bookshelf a while ago from GLTC to add to his wall behind the door. His books are all over the place lying on his chair at the moment and it would look so much better when they are all lined up in the bookshelf and I can rotate them easily whenever I want.

Are you planning or currently upgrading your children’s room? Do you have a theme?

    The room in the first photo is just amazing. It looks so clean and fresh. Unfortunately my teenager wouldn’t keep it looking clean and fresh for long haha – popping over from Mummy 2 Monkeys

    My boy’s bedroom really needs an update and I LOVE the idea of a racetrack around the room. Thanks for sharing – I’d never seen it before!

    Lovely ideas! I did a bit of a bathroom makeover in our house recently but there’s lots more I’d like to do, just need to find the time 🙂

    I’ve been planning forever to do N’s room. It’s never been decorated, and is really boring. The OH doesn’t see the need, but I really want to get rid of the ancient bed he has and get him a decent midsleeper bed.

    They are all fabulous ideas, I think the last one is my favourite as it is something you can grow up with x

    I love the middle pic – the car bed would be so exciting for a kid. And the display bookshelves always look great and are easy for children to manage.

    This is a fantastic idea! I’m amazed how brilliant the rooms look and look the wall shelving and the car bed! The flags are a great touch too!

    I’m so glad my son loves cars because he is getting one of those car beds whether he likes them or not. So cute!
