There's Always Room for New Decorating Ideas

Bratt Décor

Furnishings and decorative accessories for kids were dominated by boring wood stains and shades of dull. That was then. Now there are several manufacturers that offer good looking, quality crafted products that fit into a variety of trend-driven lifestyle decors. Rules of the past are gone as shoppers gravitate to styles they like that also accommodate the special needs of living with little ones.

Whether a customer lives in a contemporary home, a traditional house or a French Provincial setting, there are designs that blend in harmoniously. Best of all, these furnishings are practical and kid-friendly with washable, cleanable surfaces that resist those jelly-coated fingers and spilled cups of juice. Decorating with style need not break the bank either, as there are looks out there that are practical and even those that allow starting with one or two pieces and adding on as time and budget permit. Here are some examples of new designs from Bratt Décor, Muralistick, indoTreasures, and SweetSeat.

Bratt Décor Makes Every Room a Child’s Special Place

Bratt Décor
Whether it’s a crib, toddler bed, changer, dresser, or armoire, Bratt Décor makes it and does so with a reputation for safety, design and heirloom quality. Cribs come in wood, iron, sleigh, modern looks and four-poster styles — any look that becomes a center of attention for a most important person.

The Chelsea line offers a cradle, sleigh crib, armoire and changing table all in sleek, deep-toned espresso as well as white and antique silver for selected items. For a young lady, the white iron Stephen Bauer collection includes an exquisite crib as well as a delightful pink, one-light chandelier thats cast a magical glow over the room.

To store treasured children’s books and keepsakes, Bratt Décor manufactures a variety of shelves that complement many different room styles. Bookshelves come in dark and light finishes in designs from ultra-contemporary to Old World.

The Venetian group features a pewter four-poster crib that’s elegant enough for his or her majesty (and the offspring of many a celeb) and a glamorous tufted toddler chair. Complete the look with the Chelsea bookcase in antique silver and an opulent seven-drawer dresser with silver, espresso or white knobs.

Muralistik Makes Decorating Kid’s Walls Funtastic

Muralistik
Customers in search of an innovative, one-of-a-kind way to transform a nursery or child’s room will appreciate the works of art from Muralistik. The Muralistik creations are composed of individual pieces that combine to tell a story or communicate a theme. Talk about immediate gratification — Muralistick gives even an “all-thumbs” type a way to feel like a design superstar! These affordable pieces create an instant mural that appears to be hand-painted with a matte finish, although the truth is that they are actually high-gloss stickers.

In the Fairy Garden design, magical creatures and fairies play amidst toadstools and flowers, a great look for a girl’s room in pink, green or yellow. Or journey beneath the waves with Magical Mermaids where sea creatures and colorful fish glide past. Dancing Frogs captures the heart of little ballerinas with the frogs decked out in pastel tutus as they pirouette and prance among flowers.

For a boy, consider African Safari that sets the scene with wild animals and African trees. Got a space fan to please? Either Space Fun with wacky astronauts and planets or Space Adventure that makes any kid’s space astronomical!

To beautify a baby’s room, there are lots of design choices, including ABCs, Polka Dot Zoo or Friendly Farm with appealing critters. Muralistick murals are very thin so they can wrap around corners, over moldings and wall imperfections. When it’s time to remove or change the look, simply peel off and reuse!

indoTreasures Brightens Rooms and Women’s Lives

indoTreasures
Show customers you care about them and the world when you stock handmade quilts for kids from indoTreasures. Toddler quilts are 38” x 48”, just the right size for a small bed.

This company is committed to helping women in Southeast Asian villages change their lives by producing quilts. The work enables these women to help support their families so their children can prosper. The program currently employs over three hundred women who may otherwise have to perform strenuous labor in the fields at poor wages, without providing safe childcare options.

The Animal Quilt features a happy lion and his friends the hippo, zebra and giraffe with three-dimensional ears, tails and/or manes. Quilts are made of 100% washable cotton with polyester fill so they stay soft and lightweight and come with a red, blue, teal or light green border with complementary animal cushions.

The Transportation Quilt features trains, planes, buses, sailboats and fire engines. Color combinations are unique, with dark green, blue, red or maroon borders. The Alphabet Quilt shows brightly colored letters against a red, green, blue or pink background and can also be used as a play mat or educational wall hanging.

SweetSeats Accommodate Growing Children

SweetSeat
When children between eighteen months and seven years old have a hard time reaching the table and sitting comfortably for meals, the answer is the SweetSeat. This nifty chair is designed for children who are too big for a high chair, but too small for a table chair. Sweetseats are handcrafted, portable and easy to clean.

The SweetSeat puts kids at the perfect table height, with ample room for little legs to fit under the table. Farewell to gaps between a tiny diner’s mouth and their plate. SweetSeat fits firmly and comfortably atop any dining chair, covered in a child-safe, laminated cotton.

The turquoise, yellow and white floral design is clean and crisp and, since it’s easy-care, will stay that way. Blue medallion, green damask and the new Granny Smith in shiny apple green are other color choices.
