Painted Furniture is Perfect for Kid Spaces

I love painted pieces in childrens’ rooms! Here’s why it works so well:

1) It gives a punch of color.

2) You can touch it up.

3) You can easily recycle vintage furniture with paint.

4) You child can select any shade they wish for a major design element in the room like a bed or dresser.

... Read moreIncorporating painted furniture into children's decor goes beyond aesthetics; it nurtures creativity and personal expression. Parents can involve their kids in choosing colors that reflect their personality, resulting in a space they feel truly belongs to them. Painted furniture also stands resilient against the inevitable wear and tear from playful activities. The versatility of paint offers an opportunity to rejuvenate used furniture, contributing to sustainability by reducing waste. Popular shades like pastel blues and vibrant yellows not only enliven a room but can also align with specific themes, such as marine or jungle motifs. Combine painted pieces with coordinating accessories, like bed linens in complementary hues, and continue the playful vibe throughout the room. Engaging your child in these choices not only enhances their decor experience but also fosters decision-making skills. Ultimately, painted furniture brings joy, personality, and style into children's spaces, making them more than just functional areas; they transform into imaginative havens where kids can play, learn, and grow.

The best navy paint color for furniture
I used In the Navy by Sherwin Williams on this dipped sideboard and this dog bed end table. This navy definitely reads as blue but goes with a lot! I love it. Did you know you can have paint brands color match? I used Benjamin Moore Advance and asked them to tint it in SW In the Navy. #pain
