The Ultimate Paint Guide for Children’s Bedrooms with Earthborn

Whether planning a nursery for a new arrival or giving a refresh to a child’s bedroom, choosing the right paint for spaces with young ones needs careful consideration. From picking the perfect colour to checking its child safe and durable, Earthborn is here to help create a beautiful,

worry-free space for little ones.

Earthborn’s interior paints are available in over 70 beautiful colours that are gentle on little ones and the home, all without compromising on performance or style. Colour Expert, Bailey Williams, shares her top tips of what to think about when decorating a child’s room.

Are there any paint colours to avoid?

“We would generally recommend steering clear of intense or overstimulating colours as the primary colour on the walls – however brighter shades do have their place. Use these colours in a more subdued way via interesting focal points in the room such as the woodwork, a feature wall or updating pieces of furniture.”

Earthborn’s Humpty Dumpty is an earthy ochre shade with orange and yellow tones, bringing a softness to a child’s bedroom. To add a pop of colour and contrast, pair it with the deep tones of Hobgoblin for an eye-catching final result.

Gentle on little ones

“When choosing paints it’s important to know that it’s safe to use around little ones. Earthborn’s interior paints are Toy Safety Standard accredited meaning they are safe to use in babies’ and children’s rooms as well as on toys and furniture. Our signature Claypaint emulsion is also officially certified Eurofins Air Comfort Gold – the highest possible standard for indoor air quality in Europe. All Earthborn’s interior emulsions have no hidden nasties and are fume free, allowing parents to effortlessly decorate knowing their chosen finish is child safe and healthy.”

Mucky fingers? No problem

“For rooms susceptible to scuffs, fingerprints and marks, a washable, eco-friendly emulsion that is hardwearing is essential. Choosing a finish that can be easily wiped down time after time is easier to maintain in the long-term, whilst still ensuring that the colour looks fantastic for years to come. Earthborn’s Lifestyle emulsion offers a hardwearing ultra-low sheen finish that is easy to clean with soap and water. It’s a practical and gentle choice for busy areas in the home such as kitchens, bathrooms, hallways and spaces with little ones.”
