How to select nursery wall decor

The only thing more fun than shopping for baby clothes is decorating the nursery. Deciding on the colours, the theme, and the furnishing allows you to turn a simple room into a baby paradise. One of the most important parts of decorating is the wall decor. The following can help to make your choices easier.

Getting started

Before buying anything for the room, you need to consider whether you are decorating for a girl, a boy, or unisex. If you do not know the sex of your baby when preparing the room, always play it safe by decorating it with unisex colours and themes. When choosing the colours, do not forget to consider their shade. Do you want soft pastel colours or bold primary colours to catch the baby’s eye? The shade of the colour is just as important as the colour itself. A decorating theme will help to blend all your wall decor and furnishings together nicely. For example, when choosing a princess wall decor and colours, choose furniture to complement the decor with laminated white or pink trimmed pieces.

Choosing your decor

It can be overwhelming when the time comes to choose for the wall decor to use. Always remember to keep it simple. Do not overload the walls with murals, pictures, shelves, and other decorative pieces. Choose your pieces wisely.
Hanging Decide on the best method of hanging which will suit you. Those handy will have no problem screwing or hammering in nails to hold nursery shelves. But if you do not want to mar the walls with holes, consider decor with adhesives on the back to stick directly to the wall. A popular choice is animal stickers or soft motifs with wall glue adhesives on the back. Borders You can quickly dress up any room with the right border. Borders go at the top of the wall or in the middle at chair rail height. Today, borders are easy to apply, especially if you choose ones with stick on their backs, so you do not have to fool with glue. Decor
Unlike most nursery decor which is replaced as the baby grows, bedroom shelves can last forever. Choose either white shelves or wooden ones which can be painted in the future to match the changing tastes of your growing child. Pieces of art are popular choices, but forgo the wooden framed art and choose a printed small quilt to hang on the wall instead to add a soft touch of charm. Hang family photos by choosing unique small picture frames of different shapes, sizes, and colours. Group them all together in a mix match design on the wall.
