Creative Tips

Decorating your child’s room: DIY wall design

Stefanie Denker and her son Piet get creative together in his room with colourful drawings.

From Stefanie Denker

Our son Piet is a little artist. He simply loves bold colours. They make his eyes light up so much that he even paints pictures to hang on his bedroom walls. Would you like a peek inside Piet’s art studio? Come along!

Little hands, big ideas

Framed posters for one-of-a-kind works of art

Colourful, more colourful, Color Pop!

The photo shows a colourful children’s room. A boy is kneeling on the floor, with his mother beside him. In front of him is a large framed portrait, which he is colouring in with brightly coloured markers. Colourful pens and toys are scattered on the floor beside it.
Piet turns the photo into a one-of-a-kind portrait with colourful chalk markers.

We’re turning Piet’s room into a little art studio where he can let his creativity run wild. Using colourful chalk markers, he decorates the glass over Grandma and Grandpa’s portraits with bright patterns, hearts and fun little details. The vibrant colours really stand out against a light background. A real colour pop! Best of all, we can simply wipe the glass clean and start again whenever we like.

Works of art, made by little hands

Piet simply loves drawing: he draws anytime, anywhere. Every time, he shows us his finished pictures of cars, rainbows or butterflies—and he’s so proud of them. We’re just as amazed by his colourful creations, each one filled with memories.

That’s why his favourite drawings have a special place in our home: with CEWE photo products, we add a personal touch to his room. Simply scan, personalise and you’re done!

The photo shows a desk in a children’s room, with lots of colourful drawings and pencils on it. In focus is an enamel mug decorated with colourful children’s drawings. In the background, a boy is taking a pencil out of the mug.

A colourful mug design

This colourful Enamel Mug is always in use at our home. And not just for drinking hot chocolate: Piet often uses it to store his pens, too. His colourful drawings shine in every direction, making the mug a one-of-a-kind creation. A gift full of personality.

Personalised pencil case

For our Piet, there’s no such thing as too much colour. So we personalised a Faber-Castell photo pencil tin with some of his best drawings. His name is even written in big letters on the lid – in his own handwriting, of course. It makes this pencil tin truly one of a kind, and perfect for taking along wherever he goes!

The photo shows a colourful children’s room. A white blanket covered in colourful children’s drawings is draped over the bed and a chair to make a little den. In front of it, a boy is sitting and placing a cushion inside.

A cosy, creative blanket

We all love this blanket. It’s so soft and colourful, and made with so much love. The Premium Photo Blanket is with us all day long, bringing Piet’s wonderful world of colourful drawings to life. It’s a precious keepsake that we can play with, build dens under and, above all, cuddle up in.

Colourful puzzle fun

Puzzles have become part of our family life – especially when the kids are the subject! For our personalised Kids Photo Puzzle, we chose a colourful watercolour layout. It’s a perfect match for our joyful photo, and the colours tie in beautifully with the rest of the children’s room.

Step by step to the perfect result

  1. To use the images online or in the CEWE Creator Software, you’ll first need to digitise the drawings. You can do this with a scanner. Many smartphones with a high-quality camera also have a scanning feature.

  2. Once scanned, you can edit the images straight away. This works especially well if the drawing fills the entire image. Otherwise, the edges of the paper may show in your design.

  3. If you’d like to add individual designs to your layout, we recommend removing the background from the drawings. You can do this with CEWE Photoshow, your smartphone or other image-editing software. You can then add the cut-out drawings to your product.

A room full of adventures

We love colour. And our children’s boundless imagination: they turn every bedroom into a cosy, welcoming space. That’s why we use CEWE photo products to add colourful touches to every child’s room.
