“Draw on your walls!” said no mom ever…. Instead, pay tribute to your favorite crafting material, the crayon, by adding these fun Crayon Wall Decals to the walls instead!
Reading is so much fun, but what makes it even better is beautifully displaying your family’s favorite books and nick knacks on these Rainbow Book Shelves from Pottery Barn.
Add some pizzazz to your floors with this rainbow pom pom rug from Sukhi.
Our down2earth decorating consultant, Jillian, created this fun yet elegant bedroom for her daughter. The Flora Soft Focus wallpaper resembles crayon dots on the walls.
We designed this adorable girl’s bedroom in Bryn Mawr. The rainbow is used throughout the space. It is especially prominent in this bedding, which was from Land of Nod (now Crate & Kids). While this bedding is no longer available, similar bedding is still available can be found here.

If you are really itching for a creative way to use crayons, other than coloring, here’s a great DIY project. Use a hot glue gun to adhere your crayons to a canvas board and then use your blow dryer to melt them into organic looking stripes. (Or if you’re feeling lazy, you can order something similar from Etsy here.)
Store your kids books and toys in this cute Drew Barrymore Rainbow Book Pocket and Toy Storage Bin.
The fun is not just for kids! Style your shelves with color-coded drinkware and vases. Mix variations of colors and different heights for an eclectic mix. Similar glassware can be found at West Elm, Artful Home, and Amazon. (Photo credit Elsie Larson – A Beautiful Mess)
