My son has a bedroom made out in John Deere

My daughter has a room with a bed that has a white comforter with big bright red flowers and red stripes at the bottom of the comforter.

Her furniture is light wood colored with circle knobs on her dresser. Her carpet is brown.

If I had more money I would buy her a canopy bed with a white clear canopy on it with a white down comforter.

She would feel like a princess. My son has a bedroom made out in John Deere. His curtains are long and white with John Deere logos on them.

His comforter on his bed is camouflaged with green. He has a John Deere quilt on it that I bought for him for Christmas last year.

This is where the entertainment center with kid stuff is located. It has the couch with a cover, lots of chairs, including child size chairs.

There are two toy boxes and a kid play table. It is ideal for everyone, since it is right next to our front door. Playmates who come to visit thus don’t have to run through the house to go play.

The carpet is brown and the rest of the room is tile, minimizing clean up for the inevitable messes. This is kid play room crossed with a living room, and it is a room that is very lived in.

We don’t worry about appearance accept to minimize the “hurricane that ripped through” look. The bigger priority is preventing trip hazards.

If buying furniture for this kind of “lived in” room, choose durable, expendable, and easily cleanable. Neutral colors that don’t show stains are a must. Read more »
