Bedroom Decorating - 7 Ideas to Inspire a Creative Cowboy Bedroom Decor Theme Your Son Will Love
Little boys love the cowboys of the old west. Did you know that you can bring this look to your home décor quickly and inexpensively? It is easy to create a western cowboy bedroom theme with the seven simple steps outlined in this article.
Choose a western cowboy wall border to set your theme.
The first step to get the most mileage for your dollar is choosing a wall border that sets the theme and color scheme that you would like to accomplish for your cowboy bedroom design. There are many choices available online for you to choose from. Consider using companion wallpapers above and below your chair rail before placing your wall border to give your bedroom theme a more finished appeal. For this theme, you will want to keep the companion wallpapers more neutral, select patterns such as leather stitching wallpaper or a tan faux wallpaper to give you a designer look.
Choose a bedding style that your child can grow with.
A great bedding option to consider for a cowboy bedroom theme is a denim comforter set. It can be used for many years because of the durability factor of denim and works great with the rugged look that is associated with ruff and tumble cowboys. Denim comforter sets are easy to find as well, check your local discount stores or shop online to get the best bargains.
Accent your bedding with rustic accents.
A creative and inexpensive option for accenting your bedding would be to purchase red bandana fabric at your local craft store and use it to create custom throw pillows. You can also use old denim or western style shirt fabric or pockets to add personality to your pillows.
Creative storage space expands the theme while providing functionality.
Check your local garage sales and thrift stores for a rustic wooden trunk to help pull your room theme together and add storage space to your room. You can customize your trunk and change out the hardware by adding rustic black iron chest hinges, lock and side handles. Complete the look by placing western theme plaid blankets on the top of the trunk.
Use a rustic country shelf as a wall accent.
You can purchase wooden shelves with peg hooks at your local crafts store for next to nothing. For a complimentary design, paint your shelf in a warm white hue and lightly sand the edges to give it a worn rugged look.
Add a personalized sign to one wall for a classic touch.
It is easy to locate old wood pieces or old wood fence pieces that can be used as room accents. Once you have found a piece with a bit of character, purchase some thin lasso rope and use it to write your child's name in cursive on the sign. Be sure to use a glue that is appropriate for a proper bond between the rope and wood.
Let your child create their own room accents with custom artwork.
Help your child surf the internet for their favorite cowboy and western photos. Print them out on your home printer and then help your child frame the pictures in vintage or rustic picture frames. Another idea is to shop your local antique stores for cowboy posters or cowboy and western wall hangings.
Create your own nightstand as a great finishing accent.
You can accomplish this by locating old suitcases at garage sales and antique shops. Simply stack the old suitcases atop each other until you reach the desired height. This can be a decorative element as well as functional, because your child can use the suitcases as storage.
Finish off your room theme with Wild West accents galore.
Consider using western tin stars, cowboy clocks, banks, old guitars or ukuleles, lasso ropes, western lamps, old Sheriff badges or lanterns to complete your cowboy bedroom theme makeover.
Any of these seven ideas, or even all of them, make it extremely easy to create a cowboy bedroom décor theme that your child will love, while not robbing the bank.
