Whether you're welcoming a new baby, transforming a toddler's room into a big-kid one or creating a playroom, decorating for little ones can be tricky. Often we have to pick a theme and decide on a color scheme — plus figure out how to max out on storage — the more the better when it comes to kids. Luckily, the star designers of HGTV have tips, tricks ideas you can steal. Get inspired by these nurseries, bedrooms and play areas fit for any style.

Jasmine Roth gave her daughter Hazel’s bedroom her signature California-cool style with a paneled accent wall. “I was going for pretty but not froufrou,” Jasmine wrote in HGTV Magazine. “To give the crib area character, I had a carpenter affix MDF trim boards to the wall (an easy DIY except I needed help getting everything done before Hazel was born), then we painted it Halcyon Green and the other wall Faint Coral, both by Sherwin-Williams.” Layered rugs add coziness and beachy texture.

Nate Berkus and Jeremiah Brent considered both kids and adults when designing this playroom for a client from Season 1 of The Nate and Jeremiah Home Project. Chic open storage boasts shelves low enough for kids to pick out (and put away) their own toys and books. A sleek leather sofa is the perfect perch for adults during play time or for kids to curl up on during story time.

In their Season 4 Rock the Block house, Fix My Flip host Page Turner and her right-hand man Mitch Glew turned a once awkward space into a kids-only reading loft and play area with a custom structure built to accommodate the angles of the ceiling. A ladder to an elevated area gives a secret-treehouse ambiance, and the space below is like a cool fort — no grown-ups allowed. Page and Mitch added a slide from the top level to make getting down extra exciting.
