As a parent, I know the importance of good curtains in the children’s room. They can be very important when you want to control the amount of light in the room, either in the mornings, evening time or when you want to put your children in bed for a midday nap.
Of course, when it comes to decorating the children’s room, curtains and window treatments are as essential as they are with decorating any other room. A touch of fabric can add so much to any room, and that added softness is even more important when it comes to the children’s environment.
When it comes to a boys room, blue is a classic, even if a tad cliche, of a choice. A favorite character is always nice to have, and Thomas the Engine is always popular with young boys.

Stained glass can add so much to any room. It’s not as difficult to apply as you may think either, with spring clips for hanging a decorative piece over your window. Here’s a good example of a gorgeous window panel in vintage Victorian design that can enhance every room with its unique decorative qualities. Just imagine those radiant colors glowing as the sun rays enter the room.
Sized 20.5″ by 14″ it can be used as a pretty focal point in your design. While the Victorian style itself is rather eclectic and “heavy” and may not be right for a modern home, using elements such as these can add interest to various room themes.
This panel is actually designed and made by hand by American craftsmen. They do have other designs, so you can opt for a different one, while maintaining the beauty and uniqueness of handmade crafted stained glass.

Window treatments are the easy way for a quick makeover in a room. Don’t be thinking flowers and lace necessarily. Adding fabric does not have to bring about a frilly or romantic look, as these curtains clearly demonstrate:
Formal enough with their easy-on-the-eyes dark chocolate stripes, the soothing baby blue hue is relaxing and can really open up a room. They bring in some color into the room, without being overly dominant, and can easily play into many color schemes, either in the browns, creams or blues. Their sheer size, at 42 x 84 inches, can really create a strong visual effect, enough to freshen up any room. Check out the product page here on Amazon: they have more items in this set, if you really want to coordinate the room’s colors.

Neat quick idea for an affordable window treatment here.
Good looking window treatment does not have to be fancy. It doesn’t have to be expensive either. These blinds are made, believe it or not, of white paper. Durable paper, yes, but paper all the same. Do not expect it to last for generations to come, but for its price, it certainly does deliver both in terms of providing gentle shading and in giving your window of choice an elegant clean appearance.
