Here are some cool and fun ideas to create a wonderful western cowboy decor...
Ceiling, Walls and Windows
Paint the ceiling Off-White and the walls Soft Golden Brown. After the paint dries, add western wallpaper border to lift up the theme.
Other option is to paint your own cowboy mural border, for example you can browse the internet for simple pictures of horses and cowboy hats then paint it one after another on your wall. It will be a Fun and Unique cowboy theme wall border!
TIPS:
Thinking of using wallpaper? Although western wallpaper is a good choice for babies and younger kids, it won't last long.
It's OK if you plan on renovating this theme room as they grow, but if you want to have a western wall decor that grow with them then you should look for something more classic that also goes well with the theme. Vertical striped light brown and white wallpaper is a good example of this.
Use Dark Wooden Brown or Maroon to paint the door and window frames.
For the window treatment, either use western theme curtain or plain Cream colored one. Add some colorful bandanas as valance.
