Good paint for children’s furniture?

August 17th, 2010 kids 7 comments

Question by Jared L: Good paint for children’s furniture?
I’m looking for a good paint for some unfinished furniture I’m buying for our kid’s room. Anyone have any good experience with something that’s safe, durable, low VOC, etc?

Answer by Susan M
I have been happy with Behr latex paint for walls. It is remarkably lacking in odor. I am not sure what sort would be the most durable. I know that Sherwin Williams latex smells for a long time. I get migraines from smells, so odor is really important, since most ‘bad” odors and even perfumes make me sick. Home Depot has Behr and it’s sold in other places, too.

Common Mistakes in Decorating Children’s Rooms

April 9th, 2010 kids No comments


We should consider so many important factors in decorating a child’s room.

We should consider safety and ecology-friendly concerns. We should think ahead and choose the best mattress for child’s tender spine. With regards to the bed, chair, cupboard and table we should give preference to strong and child-friendly furniture for kiddies’ rooms. So each and every piece of new furniture should undergo our test whether it is strong enough and child-friendly.

We should remember that a child’s room is not a place just for resting, but also for games and activities… we should foresee so many factors. For example, walls: kids might draw pictures on it. So walls should be easily washable. Some parents prefer wall-papered, reasoning that they are more economical and ecological.

Other parents prefer glossy-paper-walls, since they are stronger, and can be washed and even painted several times. There are so many variations, each family should choose according to their own taste. As long as the colours are eye-friendly for a little person.

It has been scientifically proven that the children develop better if the walls are in pastel colours. It is even influencing the health of the children – they get sick less often, are less stressful and more productive with their homework. While bright colours and large figures, on the contrary, will bring tiredness and neuroses. Since a child’s room is a private space of your little ones where they should rest from the emotions of the day, the colours of the walls in children’s rooms should NOT be too bright.

If pastel tones seem to you too dull and not attractive, then you can choose good accessories, such as teddy bears, colourful lamps, hanging elements or paintings. But it is not recommended to decorate walls with creatures from cartoons or movies, especially modern ones, because it might influence negatively on the child’s psyche. Much better and healthy for the body and for the mind to choose images of nature: for example, fruits – bright, natural multicolours, they will perfectly bring a huge difference into children’s world.

Moreover, fruits can introduce a child to the alphabet and healthy food. Each fruit can contain a smiling face. A very interesting idea that has been shared with me is how to make a child good friends with fruits from the very tender age. Very easy and creative: with the help of magical and healthy fairtytales. It should be narrated to the little one on a daily basis. Preferably it should be an individual story on each fruit that is a part of the room’s decoration. The fairytale should, in an easy and entertaining form, explain to the child about the fruit’s life-story and health benefits. The main aim of this methodology is to introduce little ones to the world of nature and to develop in children the love for healthy food. Besides, the child will feel very comfortable in his room, being amongst good friends – fruits, as these stories will live in his imagination for years.

When choosing the furniture, parents generally are divided into two groups. The first group declares that independence is above all. They are prepared to change almost all items of furniture every second year.

The second group of parents prefer long-term things. Everything – be it furniture or clothing need to be chosen for several years. ,For example, longer sleeves and trousers pipes are normally bought up oversize and rolled up. Always having an excuse that today everything is too expensive and child can wear the same shoes 2-3 years if they put in it extra pair of thick socks.

Anyway, again, it depends on an individual’s preference and choice but a professionals would recommend a golden middle road. Bed and chair – these are the two main items that should really be changed relevant to the child’s growth. A tiny tot requires a small cozy bed,a bigger child would prefer a bed with many shelves where he or she could store toys and accessories. The teenager needs a good bed suitable for an grown-up, relevant to his new ‘adult’ status at school, college or home. The chair should be chosen just as carefully, preferably according to the child’s taste. If a child’s elbows are at table-height, then you can be sure that this chair is appropriate for him.

A bookshelf is a essential part of a child’s room and should be very functional. When a child is still small, the bookshelves can be used for his clothing, later it will be an ideal place for keeping his toys, then books. There will never be enough books as long as they are beneficial for child’s mind and heart. We should always be very careful in choosing the right literature for your little treasure.

Let your little one to have the world of good books full of knowledge, kindness, good morals, the world of fairytales and wise stories, that are being narrated by loving parents.

Even the most advanced and exclusive interior without kind words can be replaced by the loving atmosphere created by caring and affectionate parents.

Creating Fantastic Children’s Rooms

April 3rd, 2010 kids No comments

Childhood is arguably the most magical time in your life. It is a time when your imagination runs wild; as a child your life is full of discovery and fun, and a new adventure awaits you around every corner. Parents of young children often say that are able to relive their own childhood through their children’s eyes. Many parents do all they can to inspire their children during these early years by creating fantastic children’s rooms.

Themed children rooms that create a unique and vibrant atmosphere for children can be designed using many different stylistic elements. One of the most important elements can be the way the room is painted. For example, if you have selected a nautical theme you can help create a fantastic children’s room by painting the walls in bright blue colors or stripes to reflect the theme. If you have a talent for drawing, you can create a mural that depicts boats, the ocean or various aquatic animals and plants. Whatever type of nautical elements you choose for the walls, it will add to the ambiance of the room.

Once the background of a fantastic children’s room is complete, you can focus on the different types of custom children’s furniture to add to the room’s overall effect. By selecting furniture that can be painted especially for the themed room, you can add a personal touch that your child will appreciate. This furniture can be painted with the nautical theme and you can add the children’s name as well.

There are many different types of customized children’s furniture you can choose from when creating fantastic children’s rooms. If you are going with the nautical theme, you can select a bed that is shaped like a boat to be the centerpiece for the room. From there you can add many other unique and personalized pieces of furniture. Many pieces can be both decorative and functional. If you would like to include a piece that can hold toys, extra bedding or clothing that can also double as a seat, a custom toy chest would work great.

If a children’s room is pretty large in size, you can add kids furniture such as a painted and personalized table and chair set or a nice rocking chair for one of the corners. These types of pieces will give a child a working surface for coloring or playing with their stuffed animals. A rocking chair painted with a nautical theme allows the child to cozy up in a chair that was custom created for him or her and read a book or watch television.

In addition to the main furniture elements parents can use in creating a fantastic children’s room, there are many other ancillary or accent pieces that can complete the look. These could include painted wall shelves, clothes trees, flip stools and bookends. Whatever fun and unique elements are chosen, if parents take the time to create a magical atmosphere, they will be able to create a truly fantastic children’s room that their child will love.

Buying Children’s Furniture – Dos and Don’ts

March 10th, 2010 kids No comments

Buying children’s furniture can at times be a daunting task. It could even be a slightly more complicated than buying regular furniture. Most children’s rooms are not very large, and must also leave certain vacant floor spaces for the child to play. Therefore, it makes sense to have furniture that performs double duty, such as headboards that also serve as bookcases, storage chests that double as stairs and toy chests that can double as seats. Bunk beds are great if two children are sharing a room, or even for sleepovers.

The Bunk Bed is a popular choice as you can also add trundle drawers to the bottom for extra storage. Avoid the temptation to fill a small room with every matching piece from a bedroom set. Fewer pieces will also make the room look larger. Do not buy oversized beds and cribs. You should also not purchase cabinets that are too commodious for a child. Remember, play is more important for the child’s growing years. And leaving enough room for him to play around is important for proper growth and development.

When buying children’s furniture, bear in mind the safety factor and buy furniture that are sturdy and well well-assembled. It should be able to withstand rough use children are accustomed to. Make sure there are no safety hazards, such as loose safety rails on bunk beds or ladders that are flimsy or not fastened securely. It should not have sharp edges or any removable part to avoid accidents. Also make sure the furniture has paint that is free from lead. If you are going to paint the furniture yourself, then better use water based paints.

Yet another factor before you buy, decide how long you want to keep the furniture. Children grow and develop at an amazing pace, and their tastes can also change within a short span of time. If you want to echo the style from the rest of your home, most furniture manufacturers have a children furniture department to sell modified version of their adult furniture. You also have to choose a good material if you intend buying modern furniture items.  Make sure the material used is not brittle that breaks easily. There are first class wood, metals, and even plastic furniture items which can last long enough and can look perfect in your child’s modern room.

Children should feel happy and relaxed with their seating, such as kid’s rocking chairs, recliners, beanbags, and even sofas! When choosing the children’s chairs, pay attention to the craftsmanship and make sure they are firm and strong and do not tip over easily. You can even opt for a chair to which you can add a child-size table. This will give the child his or her own place to eat, draw or paint, make crafts or read books. These come in formal wooden table and chairs and in more casual styles such as picnic tables and painted in bright colors.

If you are decorating the child’s room, decide what color paint you want and what theme you will use. You could let the child choose these so they will enjoy their own special room. Choose fabrics for your children’s furniture that will withstand wear and tear, and wood that matches the other furniture.

Accompany your child to the local department stores and see if they have what you want. If you don not have time to shop or no stores are nearby, you can research the Internet where you will find many online catalogs with endless choices and unique designs.
