Blue on Blue

Monochromatic doesn’t have to mean dull. In this kid’s bedroom, designer Alisha Gwen incorporated various shades of blue – from sky blue to turquoise to navy – to create a lively retreat. Chevron, floral and Suzani patterns feel pulled together thanks to the unified color palette.

Grown-Up Touches

Consider hues that will grow with your child when decorating their bedroom. In this 7-year-old’s room featured in HGTV Magazine, the navy wall color (Stiffkey Blue by Farrow & Ball) feels sophisticated next to the warm wood tones in the West Elm bed and the bench from Target, yet the whimsical wall art and accessories keep things fun.

Warm Accents

Certain shades of blue can feel a little cold on their own, but you can warm them up by pairing them with hues like red, orange or pink. In this space, J&J Design Group balanced the aqua walls and bed frames with a coral-colored dresser and bedding with bubblegum-hued details.

Layers of Pattern

From the watercolor-inspired wallpaper to the delicate floral bedding, designer Kendall Simmons mixed unexpected patterns in this kid’s bedroom to create a lively, eclectic space. The key to keeping the room from feeling too busy is the cohesive color palette of soft blues, pinks and purples.

Coastal Hues

If your little one can’t get enough of the outdoors, look to nature for inspiration when designing their bedroom. Sea glass informed the color palette of this cheerful kid’s room by designer Linda Woodrum. Tone-on-tone stripes bring dimension to the walls, while pencil-post beds in a vibrant shade of turquoise add a whimsical touch. A blue striped rug ties in the various colors in the bedroom.

Barely There Blue

Soft powder blue walls almost act as a neutral in this bedroom designed by Cloth & Kind, letting the red, pink and black decor stand out. With a few tweaks, this timeless space could work for a toddler, a tween or a teen.

Graphic Design

Bring a touch of Americana to your kid’s bedroom with a red, white and blue color scheme. In this space, designer Jenna Buck Gross put a modern spin on the classic palette with graphic patterns, glossy furniture and prints of popular superheroes.

Teen-Worthy Teal

Light shades of blue are often associated with babies’ rooms, but darker shades can look ultra-chic in a teen’s bedroom. Deep teal walls and custom leather headboards bring sophistication to this teen retreat designed by Tiffany Brooks, while floral curtains and custom butterfly artwork feel fun and youthful.

Out of This World

Midnight blue walls evoke the cosmos in this astronaut-themed kid’s room by designer Kerra Michele Huerta, complete with a spacesuit-clad bedspread and framed artwork depicting the phases of the moon. If you opt for a dark wall color in your child’s room, offset it with bright, white accents to keep the space from feeling gloomy.

Fun Flooring

You don’t have to break out the paintbrush to add color to your kid’s bedroom. Linc Thelen Design livened up this bunk room’s white walls with geometric-print FLOR carpet squares in shades of blue, plus coordinated bedding. Take inspiration from this space and add color to your kid’s bedroom with a new rug, comforter, artwork or other accessories.

Eye-Catching Artwork

Hanging fun artwork is an easy, inexpensive way to brighten up a kid’s bedroom, and a bold wall color can really make it pop. In this bedroom, a deep, navy blue accent wall lets the crisp whites and bright colors in the artwork stand out.

Boho Cool

An Arabian-inspired wallpaper in turquoise and metallic gold is the perfect backdrop for this boho-style teen bedroom. Designer Linda Eyles draped jewel-toned saris over the four-poster bed and decorated the room with family heirlooms for a fun, layered look.

Classic Plaid

You can’t go wrong with plaid; this classic pattern can transition from a nursery to a toddler’s room to a big kid-worthy space. Designer Amy Studebaker decorated this bedroom in baby blue from floor to ceiling for a young child, but the blue plaid beds and curtains could be paired with bolder, darker hues for a more grown-up look.

Vintage Charm

Kids’ rooms don’t have to be childish. Designer Shelley Cahan created this sophisticated yet playful space using nickel accents, distressed furnishings and a classic ikat-patterned wallcovering. The hand-drawn airplane on the ceiling captures a sense of youthful adventure and calls to mind an old blueprint, enhancing the room’s vintage feel.

Glamorous Accessories

For a teen or tween with high-end taste, metallic accents can instantly glam up their bedroom. Designer Liz Caan chose a palette of blues and purples for this space, then finished it off with glitzy touches of gold in the artwork and other accessories.

Making Waves

Wallpaper is a quick and easy way to establish a theme in a kid’s bedroom. Wavy wallpaper in various shades of blue lends an underwater effect to this bunk room designed by Kristina Crestin. Aqua and navy linens, a turquoise rope ladder and an undulating light fixture all add to the aquatic vibe.

Sporty Yet Stylish

A tween's love of the University of Notre Dame inspired this bedroom’s navy-and-gold palette. Rather than relying heavily on mascots and literal nods to the college and its football team, designer Brian Patrick Flynn primarily used color to create the motif. Try this technique with your kid’s favorite team for a sports-themed room that’s not too over-the-top.

Fairytale Retreat

Princess-themed bedrooms don’t always have to be pink. This elegant space by Ami Austin is fit for royalty with its blue tufted velvet bed, Venetian mirror and intricate wall murals of storybook-worthy scenes.

Nautical Vibes

A navy-blue-and-white color palette is a great starting point for a nautical-style bedroom for your little sailor. Navy and white stripes in varying widths bring a maritime vibe this bedroom designed by Kress Jack, while a ship wheel-shaped mirror completes the look.

Mountainous Mural

You don’t have to be gifted with a paintbrush to create a stunning mural in your child’s bedroom. Take a cue from this Alaskan-inspired nursery and use shades of blue and gray to paint an abstract mountain scene on the walls. Designer Rebecca Zajac finished the space with wood furniture and faux fur details to enhance the rugged vibe.

Blocks of Blue

Large rectangles in blue, gray and white are reminiscent of kid’s building blocks in this fun hangout designed by Lauren Rubin Architecture. This look would be easy to recreate at home; start by lightly drawing a design on the wall in pencil, using a level to get accurate lines. Working with one color at a time, fill in the blocks with paint; use painter’s tape to get clean lines.

From: Lauren Rubin Architecture

Bright and Inspiring

Adding a study area to your child’s bedroom? Use color to create a space that’s inspiring and energizing. J&J Design Group paired electric blue walls with pink, orange and yellow accessories to create a happy homework zone in this kid’s bedroom. A gauzy canopy hung from the ceiling turns one corner of the room into a cozy reading nook.

Looking Up

Think beyond the walls when painting your child’s bedroom. In this space, designer Lauren Rubin used a deep shade of blue to draw the eye up, accentuating the sloped ceilings and tall, arched windows.

From: Lauren Rubin Architecture

Ombre Stripes

Kids' rooms are the perfect spot to get a little experimental with color and pattern. This space designed by Susan Lind Chastain and Willem Racke for the San Francisco Decorator Showcase 2015 features a blue ombre lacquer wall finish inspired by rock formations along the Pacific coast. The vertical striped effect makes the room’s sloped ceilings feel taller.
