Creating the perfect kid's room can be expensive. Why not save money and make your child’s room unique with DIY projects?

If your youngster’s room is looking a bit, shall we say “bleh,” it’s time to do something about it. Raising a kid might be full of surprises, but it’ll be no surprise that your kid will be delighted with these DIYs that turn boring into brilliant. 

Watch out room, here we come.

2. Reading Nook

Make reading a fun activity that your child looks forward to and give them a cozy spot to enjoy their books. Designate a reading corner, construct a teepee and provide plush cushions and their favorite stuffed animals.

3. Chalkboard Paint Wall

Does your child love to draw? Let their imagination soar by painting one of their walls with chalkboard paint.

Keep clutter to a minimum with toys tucked away in cute, patterned storage bins that complement the room's decor.
