Decorating your home can be overwhelming. Sometimes it is hard to know where to start! And, when it comes to decorating a child’s bedroom, the task can quickly become overwhelming. Luckily, Pottery Barn Kids is an excellent resource for decorating your child’s new bedroom or simply updating their existing one. Whether you are decorating a baby’s room, for a toddler or a tween, you are sure to find something to suit your taste – and theirs.

Several steps should be taken to plan the space before you begin working on your child’s room. Make sure to take time to decide exactly how the room will be used, this will save you time and money in the long run. Will small children be using this space as a sleep and play area? Does your older child need a desk for homework? Or maybe you want to make sure that the furniture you invest in can grow along with your child.

Consider the amount of space available in the room when planning the placement of furniture.  And think about your child’s specific interests. A child who uses a lot of floor space playing may have different needs than a child who enjoys reading books in a big comfy chair.

Some of our favorite pieces of Pottery Barn Kids furniture are:

• The Catalina Cottage Bed which features tongue and groove joinery and solid wood, it comes in twin and full size.
• Whimsical Anywhere Chairs that come in a variety of colors and patterns, and can even be personalized.
• Storage Wall Systems that help to organize Legos, markers, Barbies and more in baskets and on shelves.
