Create a magical atmosphere in your child’s room!

Why choose a wall light for your child’s bedroom?

Lighting your child’s room can be a real challenge. Between the need for light to play, read or do homework, and the desire for a cocooning, soothing atmosphere for sleeping, you need to find the right balance. Wall sconces are an ideal solution to these different needs, as in this fabulous wall sconce with ball and white teddy bear.

Compared to a chandelier or pendant, wall lamps have the advantage of being positioned at child height, offering more focused lighting and easier interaction. What’s more, their design can easily blend in with the room’s decor, adding an extra decorative touch.

Key features of a children’s wall light

Sturdiness and safety

When choosing a wall sconce for your child’s bedroom, robustness and safety are paramount. The materials used must be resistant to knocks and falls, to guarantee your child’s safety. The wall-mounting system must also be solid and secure. Some sconces are even designed with rounded edges to avoid any risk of injury.

Design adapted to the child’s world

Children’s wall lights come in a multitude of designs, colors and shapes. Models with playful motifs, such as animals, stars or geometric shapes, blend in perfectly with bedroom decor. Some sconces even feature interactive light effects, for a magical, captivating effect every day.

High-performance, energy-efficient lighting

Children’s wall lights are now equipped with LEDs, providing powerful, energy-efficient lighting. Depending on the model, they can also be dimmed to suit different moods, from play to relaxation.

How to choose the right wall light for your child’s bedroom?

Identify the key areas to be lit

In a child’s bedroom, it’s important to identify which areas need priority lighting. Typically, these include the play area, the desk or reading corner, with a wall-mounted reading light, and the bed. The wall light will provide functional and safe light for these different uses.

Consider the aesthetics and style of the room

The choice of wall sconce should also match the decor of your child’s bedroom. You’ll find models in vintage, Scandinavian or more modern styles, which will harmonize perfectly with the desired ambience.

Focus on quality and durability

Investing in a quality wall light is a guarantee of durability. Sturdy materials and meticulous finishing ensure that your fixture will stand the test of time, despite a child’s intensive use.

Current trends in children’s wall lights

Iconic, timeless designs

Some children’s wall sconces have become veritable icons, spanning the decades without losing any of their charm. This is the case, for example, with star-shaped sconces or cloud-shaped wall sconces, which add a bright, poetic touch to any bedroom. Sconces with a pure design in neutral shades such as white or wood are also a safe bet.

Touches of color and fantasy

While sleek styles remain popular, there’s also a craze for more colorful, whimsical wall lights. Models with playful motifs, such as animals or geometric shapes, help to infuse a cheerful, playful atmosphere into a child’s bedroom.

The return of the 70s and 80s

The latest trends also see the return of retro styles, such as wall sconces inspired by the 70s and 80s. These models bring a touch of nostalgia and personality to bedroom decor.

How to install a wall sconce without drilling?

Choose the right type of sconce: there are wall sconces designed specifically for installation without drilling. They are generally equipped with an adhesive or magnetic attachment system.

Prepare the wall surface and make sure it’s clean, dry and smooth. Degrease if necessary to optimize adhesion.
Position the sconce where you want it on the wall. Check that the location is suitable before fixing, and secure the sconce with the hanging system.

If the sconce is equipped with an adhesive system, simply remove the protective cover and apply the sconce firmly to the wall.
For a magnetic system, first attach the magnetic elements to the wall, then hang the sconce on them and plug it in.

Once the fixture is in place, connect it to the power supply according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Usually, all you have to do is connect the wires. Check that the installation is sound.

Once plugged in, gently pull on the sconce to check that it is securely fastened to the wall. Adjust if necessary.
Installation complete! You can now enjoy your new wall sconce without having to drill a hole in the wall.

However, for a more secure and durable installation, it’s always best to mechanically fasten the sconce to the wall if possible.

Conclusion

Wall sconces are an excellent choice for illuminating your child’s bedroom, while ensuring their safety and comfort. With their playful design, sturdy materials and high-performance lighting, these fixtures will create a magical, soothing atmosphere, while blending in perfectly with the room’s decor.
