and for those parents who are handy, create a box that will double as a bed head for your child's bed. Use a stencil and tools to cut out designs in the wood and have an electrician insert a safe light globe at the base. When the bed head is constructed and is functioning, your child will have an inbuilt night light. Your creativity and design is unlimited. Visit Better Homes and Gardens for a design on creating a built in night light for your child.

PUPPET THEATRE

Using curtains or fabric, or if you have someone handy in the family, create a puppet theatre in the room. Use inbuilt wardrobes and hang curtains inside to create theatre curtains on the side that may be raised or lowered when the show is to begin.

PRINCESS SANCTUARY

If you have a wardrobe that is not being used just like the puppet theatre you can create a Princess sanctuary within your child's room. Insert a dresser and stool that is small enough to fit within the alcove then hang organza or lace that hides it when not in use.

HANGING CHAIRS

Innovative uses for chairs can create a great personal space for your kids when they want to read, play a game or to just rest. Hang a hammock in the room or use a chair that is bolted into the ceiling. For an idea on hanging chairs for kid's rooms, visit Ikea as they have a great hanging chair designed specifically for children's rooms.

PERSONALIZED WALL ART

Have you ever wondered how you may keep your children's art forever? Use some paintings or drawings that your child has created and have them framed. Display them proudly in their rooms so they may look at their great artwork at any time. This will also show the kids how proud of their art and creativity you are.

PERSONALISED PAINTING IDEAS AND LETTERS

Many hardware and craft stores have letters or words cut from wood that can be decorated and hung on your child's wall. Use the letters of their name or words such as "Princess" or "Teamwork" to create a room which original personalized painting on them.

If you don't want to attach anything to the wall or wouldn't like to change the color of the walls, a great idea for parents to use in children's rooms is "Art Deco Stickers". These are vinyl stickers that easily attach to the wall and can be removed at any time in the future if need be. Type the above name into an eBay search or Google and discover a supplier in your area.
