How to choose a bedspread for a boy
An important role when choosing a cape on the bed is the age of the owner of the room. A small product of 100 * 150 cm is suitable for infancy. The natural flannel or bike will be the best material for a newborn's blanket. Natural cotton fabrics are preferred by parents who care about the health of the baby. But completely cotton fabrics are easily crumpled, so the best option would be cotton with a small percentage of artificial fiber, it holds the form and is easier to erase. Synthetic fabrics do not crumple and are easily washed, but do not let the air in, absorb moisture poorly, accumulate static electricity and attract dust. Dust collector that can cause allergies, do not place in the bed of the baby. For small children, daytime sleep is necessary, so a soft and warm blanket will warm the sleeping baby. More expensive, but also the warmest - a blanket made of natural sheep or camel wool. But due to the love of babies, it is not the best choice to pull a wool blanket into your mouth.
When buying a rug for an older child, junior high school student or teenager, the naturalness and quality of the material for the bedspread is equally important.
Unlike the bed of parents, where strict order reigns during the day, the bed of a preschooler or teenager is actively used. Children play on it, lying around, reading books and even eating. The dimensions of the product are selected so as to completely hide the bed linen, this will protect it from contamination. Beds with standard 1.5-bed sizes are suitable for a teenage bed.
Ideas for decorating a children's bedroom
There are no strict canons for the design of a bed, but in order to establish yourself as a hostess with good taste and instill in your child a sense of style, you should follow a number of simple rules:
- To determine for yourself whether the coverlet will merge with the general interior ensemble or will become a bright accent in the room setting;
- For the room in the style of country or Provence, the model of the Handmade blanket, made in the patchwork technique or crocheted from bulk yarn, is ideal;
- For an adult in the first place is practicality, and for a child - visual appeal. Younger children will enjoy bedcovers with plot drawings from their favorite cartoons, while adolescent children will like abstract shapes, geometric shapes, retro cars, city-style, and a Scottish cell;
- Choosing interior items in the child’s room, it is better to take into account his interests and wishes. So that the little man feels comfortable and calm in her;
- A great option for a nursery is a bilateral blanket, it not only lasts longer, but it can also be used to bring a fresh note to the room. Having picked up 2 sets of curtains to match different sides of the bedspread, you can periodically change the interior of the nursery.
- Silk and satin bedspreads look gorgeous in mom's room, but out of place and uncomfortable in a children's bed.
Color, texture of fabric and their meaning
The color scheme of children's bedspreads for boys is wide and varied. As if you did not want to make the children's room the standard of style, having bought a cover that fits perfectly into the interior, you should not forget about the opinion of the child. Conditionally can be identified at the age of the child of the 3 period:
- From 0 to 3 years. At this stage, the baby is completely dependent on the mother. Suitable pastel shades: blue, beige, mint with medium-sized drawings. Gentle tones are soothing and do not irritate the sensitive child psyche.
- From 3 to 10 years. At this age, children are looking for idols, love to watch cartoons. The cover with a favorite hero from a cartoon will be to the child's taste. Given the sympathies and interests of his son, you can buy a cape with horses, cars, kittens or military equipment. The print on the plot of the cartoon is always bright and multicolored, will decorate the children's room.
- From 10 to 16 years. The teenager wants to declare himself as an adult, so he rejects everything childish. Respect his desire, strict forms and lines should be present in the interior, bedspreads with geometric figures, urban themes, Japanese minimalism style and others are ideal. The colors are preferred dark and saturated: graphite, burgundy, deep blue, brown and black.
In order for the paints to be pleasant for a long time, and the product did not become deformed after frequent washes, you need to buy bedspreads in special textile stores from trusted manufacturers.
