Hi could I get a private post please.

My little boy (3 yrs old) is obsessed with the colour pink. And trolls.
He wants is bedroom redecorating and wants a pinky/purple bedroom. But everyone keeps telling not to do it.

I don’t see the harm in doing it that colour. I honestly don’t.

Just looking for other people’s opinions.

Thanks. x

  • YOU’RE decorating the bedroom for YOUR son, not for anyone else and their useless opinions. You do the colour scheme you think he’ll enjoy. You’re absolutely right, there’s no harm at all.

  • I would do a feature wall in one colour with a trolls canvas and have the other 3 walls in white as kids change their mind so much then when they want my little pony/ the minions or what ever the next latest fad is then it won’t be hard to redecorate as u will only have the one wall to do

  • My son was obsessed with pink when he was smaller ….pink icing on his cake pink nail polish on his toes …He really really wanted a motorized pink barbie jeep but he didn’t get that as we had no room for that….now he is a teen and only wears black ….kids go through phases and it’s fine to indulge them as long as it’s not harmful ….let him have his pink room ….In a few years he may want something else

  • I would do something more flexible that can be adapted as he gets older. U might decorate it one way and find his tastes change in 6 month. I let my boys do anything they want if they want to buy a ‘girls’ top or to put nail varnish on I let them but as they get older with nursery then school they often pick up on what their friends say and I have been quite sad as they have said they no longer like somethin because it’s ‘only for girls’ I have said it doesn’t matter boys can like it too but it seems once they have it in their head from friends they want to fit in. I would do perhaps several walls more neutral and a feature wall? Wall stickers are good as easily changed and can be used on doors/furniture too 🙂 x

  • Why don’t you look for a trolls mural for the wall, the background is likely to be pink and then get matching accessories! Then you’re ticking all boxes trolls and pink! It’s your child do what you like for his room, who cares what anyone says as it can be easily changed when he gets older if he changes his mind on his fave colour x

  • If that’s what he wants I would go for it!! Boys can like/wear etc pink aswell!! It’s not just confined to girls. I wish the stigma wasn’t there for little boys liking pink or playing with ‘girls toys’

    Let them do what they want. I bought my son a doll and pram for his Xmas few years back cause he asked for it. He barely touched it but least I taught him he can play with whatever he likes without being judged. I seen a wee boy running down my street the other day pushing his pram with his dolly and he looked so proud and so happy. If that is what your boy wants then go for it!! And if he decides he doesn’t like it then least the £30 you spend on paint etc will be worth it because you have taught him the most valuable lesson. Be yourself and if that’s liking pink or playing with ‘girl toys’ then so be it!! Cause he can do whatever he wants with his life aslong as he is happy. Ignore everyone else. Teach him to not be ashamed of what he likes x

  • It’s not their son and not their room. Those people that deprive their child’s happiness just because the believe is doesn’t fit in with society are wrong. I SAY DO IT 😘😘😘 xx

  • I doubt those people who are telling you not to do it will even step foot in his bedroom and so it has nothing to do with them, if he wants his room pink let him, even you said you have no problem with it x

  • Pink is just another colour, it’s only small minded people that assume certain colours are for girls/boys! My daughter had a blue room x

  • My daughter has a blue pirate themed bedroom, that’s what she wanted so that’s what she had. Let him have what he wants in there, and let his individuality shine through 😊

  • If your little boy loved pink/purple paint his room pink/purple. Don’t listen to other people, you’re his mum

  • I’d let him have it. My daughter has had a blue room and I thought nothing of it x

  • Do what he likes, causes no harm and they don’t understand if you try and force the issue. Just make him happy xx

  • If it’s pinky/purple he wants them pinky/purple he should get! Sod what other people think 🙂

  • Maybe do like a darker background with big troll pictures and their hair in like shocking pink and purple, x
