Lights and garlands for children’s rooms

What is usually sought when putting garlands in the room is, apart from decorating, to create a magical and pleasant environment, where children can feel safe at night. In the children’s room, garlands can be placed at various strategic points such as:

  • In a furniture/shelf near the crib/bed: This is a great point since, apart from providing decorative lighting, it also serves to remove the fear of children when sleeping. For these types of locations, where the lights are closer to children, we recommend lights that do not overheat and that are not covered with fragile materials such as glass. There are several options that you can handle such as «wool lights», which provide very warm colours of pastel tones.
  • Around the window: A good way to improve the warmth of a room is by providing light to the interior windows. These windows, not being directly exposed to the outside, can look a bit dull and without joy. With the garlands, we can attract a little more soft and homely lighting. 

You can even opt for lights with different shapes such as star-shaped garlands, or little stars with a happy face:

  • Designed decorative space: You can create a space designed so that your little ones feel at ease. Here it is already in your imagination, you can create a kind of indoor tent or a play area in your room, where the lights play an important role. We leave you some examples:

On a wall where you don’t have any other type of decoration, you can create a space for your photos or images that you like the most. Warm lights are a very good ally of this type of mural since, apart from being an ideal support for photos, it also provides a warm and personal atmosphere.
  • LED lights: LED lights are a trend today, and it is that you can do many things with them. The most attractive thing about these types of lights is that they can vary in color, giving the room tones that you would never have imagined.
  • The simplest way to locate your LED lights is by placing them in the corners of the walls. All you have to do is stick them on the edges so that when you turn them on they generate that blurred and enveloping look.
  • Another way to place them is around the bed. Surely you have never heard it before, but placing lighting around your bed creates a totally unexpected and new space.
  • If you want something even more different, you can try cloud decoration. Exactly, clouds. This is an idea that is being a trend in recent days, and its finishes are spectacular. To do this, you will need a plate either made of wood, cardboard, or cork, large enough to cover the area where you want to place your clouds. Then place the LED strip randomly on the table. Once ready, stick pieces of polyester-cotton (or stuffing for a stuffed animal) on top of the iron using a silicone gun. Once ready, place the board on the ceiling or in the place that you like the most, screwing it with a drill or with nails. You will like the results very much.
