The Jungle Look: 5 Easy Tips for Creating a Jungle Bedroom Theme
Are your little explorers itching for a new adventure? Sounds like it’s time for a bedroom decor shakeup, and a jungle bedroom theme is the perfect choice. Getting your little ones involved in choosing and applying their bedroom decor is a wonderful thing, and a jungle themed bedroom is one of those amazingly easy themes you can create quickly and on a budget. Here are 5 simple ways to create a jungle themed room for your budding explorers:

1. Jungle Theme Wallpaper

Let’s face it, wallpaper is much less messy than paint. Besides, you don’t have to wait hours for it to dry, making it the ideal quick decoration method for creating a no-fuss, jungle themed bedroom. Jungle themed wallpaper comes in all kinds of designs and colours, from colourful jungle leaf prints to jungle animal scenes and abstract designs, and all of them can be used to create a vibrant feature wall for instant jungle vibes.

2. Jungle Garlands and Paper Chains

Here’s a great way to get your little ones involved in making their very own jungle bedroom decorations. Jungle-themed garlands, banners and paper chains add instant colour and character to a bedroom, and they’re incredibly quick and easy to make (or you can buy them if you’re short on time!). You can use this free printable template to print and cut out leaf shapes for your little ones to paint, or you can print them straight onto coloured card and cut them out.
