Decorate Your Child's Room With a Fun Country Theme

Whether you live on a idyllic farm or in New York City, a barn theme is a wonderful way to spark up a nursery or kid's bedroom. Both boys and girls, especially those who love animals, will enjoy a room that has a barn theme and is the place of cows, tractors, fences, horses, donkeys, pigs and a down-home country look. From nursery age and upward, a barn and farm can be the place to call home for the little ones. Red with white trim can be the dominant look, reflecting a happy country barn, filled with animals, especially the stuffed kind. Isn't it time to give a home to your child's menagerie of bears, donkeys, horses and other animals?

Murals

You might try your hand at painting a barn and sky mural. If you're not great at painting a puffy cloud-filled blue sky, green grass and apple trees, red barn and farm animals, you can buy a printed mural that will be the focal point of the room. A variety of fun murals that will enhance the theme can be found by searching online. You might add a cornstalk, pig or rooster sticker or decal to add a bit of whimsy and decorate an additional wall.

You can also commission a tromp l'oeil painted mural of a farm scene looking out the door of the barn. Calming as well as beautiful, a painting of the countryside will add pastoral serenity to the room.



Beds

One can find a variety of beds for sale that include themes of tractors, red barns and more. Or if you are familiar with woodworking, build a barn bed yourself.

Furniture

Add a toy box made of metal, a real bin used to feed animals. Or make one out of wood and decorate with the red and white barn theme. A cow chair, there are a few on etsy.com, adds a delightful and whimsical, though useful prop, to your barn theme. Go all out with a wine barrel vanity or add fun for the little one with a cow rocker; there is much out there to inspire you in your farm or barn theme.

Wall Decor

There are many fine and inexpensive canvas and wood decorative items that would be suitable for your barn-themed room. From cow painting prints to country whimsical, posters and prints are ideal to enliven the room and add to your theme. You can even have your child paint his or her favorite farm animal and have a canvas print made to adorn the wall. Signs with simple sayings and country fun can also enhance the theme of the room.
