Selecting boys bedding

Does your son spend their entire afternoon pushing around dump trucks on the floor, or outside? Or does he tend to beg you to stop at nearby construction sites, or to watch his favorite show bob the builder at every turn of the hour? If this sounds like your boisterous boy, then this may be the perfect candidate for a theme room; something built around construction theme bedding, comfortable cotton sheets adorned with pictures of heavy machinery (cement mixers, tow trucks, dump trucks etc). However don’t forget to purchase fun accessories to throw this creative fun around the room, such as an area rug and matching toy trucks and construction gear. Remember finding a real or vintage construction hard hat can make for a great accessory! (With a little creativity you may even be able to turn it into a lamp for your child’s bedroom)

Although we have covered several theme ideas, remember before you can choose your child’s bedding; you will need to know what you will need. Whether you have a little girl or a boy, child or adult; you will always need the same basics. You will need of course a mattress pad, a bed skirt (unless you have purchased a platform bed), several sheet sets that include a fitted bottom, flat top sheets, and at least one pillowcase. You should also purchase either a blanket, bedspread, quilt, or a comforter (along with a comforter cover), or a combination of these items depending on the season. You will need to make sure that they are all cohesive with one another, to help keep true to your son’s room theme.

When you are trying to find the bedding for your son, you should look for bold patterns. Some of the best colors that lend themselves well to many of the themes you can come up with would be navy blue, maroon, gold, light blue, hunter greens, etc that will allow your son a masculine colored room (that is not to say that a boy cannot have a pink bedroom of course!) These colors tend to make a wonderful foundation piece for any room, and will allow your son to keep them as he grows; without growing out of the theme too quickly.
