It’s a way of bringing the wonders of interstellar travel and the milky way right into your home in a creative and beautiful way.

In addition, it’s a great way to teach your children about the solar system by adding a space-themed wall with images of planets as the backdrop.

Kids thrive in a space where they can be inspired and a faster way to learn about space.

You can choose to create a calm and serene environment that inspires calm and relaxation, or vibrant and colorful space-themed room ideas to bring a burst of life to any room.

Also, it’s a great way to personalize and showcase your child’s interest in the dark solar system or cultivate the little astronaut in training.

In addition, creating a space-themed bedroom is a great way to express a love of space and showcase creativity and a fun personality.

It’s also a unique way to decorate a kid’s bedroom and make it feel more like a home.

It’s a great way to make a bedroom more interesting and fun – and not just a black hole.


2. Gather space-themed room ideas and inspiration

Before you begin decorating your space-themed bedroom, it’s important to gather inspiration and ideas from different sources.

Think about the space-themed room ideas you’d like to go for and the colors and elements that you’d like to include within the design.

Next, decide on the elements you’d like to highlight, such as the sun, the big moon, or a specific planet.

Once you have a few ideas in mind, you can start hunting for inspiration and ideas.

Pinterest is a great resource to gather creative and unique ideas, and Instagram is a great place to find inspiration from fellow decorators and crafters.



3. Design and decorating tips for the best space-themed room

When designing a space-themed room, it’s important to choose the elements carefully.

A better way to begin is deciding on which elements of the solar system you’d like to include, and what elements you’d like to spotlight.

Then, decide on a color palette for the room, and select the items carefully to match.

Consider a dark blue paint color that would complement a solar system art print or a full accent wall of the entire theme of space.

Navy blue is also a great color choice that looks great with space-themed wall decor.

Wall decals are the perfect choice to create an eye-catching indoor space.

In addition, consider buying a wall decal that cuts across the entire wall, so you can use a smaller image but have a large-scale impact.

It’ll be cheaper to buy a large image that you can use on one wall instead of buying multiple smaller images to create the same effect.


Pro tip: Don’t worry if you don’t have the room to cover an entire wall. You can also create a stunning space-themed bedroom by using smaller images on various surfaces without adding much of an additional cost.





4. Get creative with wall art ideas

When selecting space-themed room ideas for wall art, there are lots of options available.

The good news is that with a push of a button, you can order a great dark stars print, star wars art decals, or framed images to display.

In addition, you can choose a smaller surface in the room to decorate, such as a nightstand or closet door, and then add a smaller piece of art or space-themed photo.

Wall art is a great way to bring color and personality to any spaced-themed room and will add a personal flair to any child’s bedroom.

In addition, wall art can be used to highlight a specific element from the solar system.

You can choose a specific planet or add a whole solar system mobile to your list of space-themed room ideas.

Perhaps, if you’d like to showcase the sun, you can use a large image of the sun itself for a cheerful idea.


5. Lights make great space-themed room ideas

A soft night light makes a great idea to bring some soft lighting to the room and keep the space-theme dark and fun.
