Walls in Children's Room: 7 Ideas for Decoration

First Option. Decorative Stickers

This is one of the fastest and easiest ways. First of all, you won't get dirty, and the decoration process will take much less time than, for example, applique or painting.

Wall stickers are made from vinyl, so this material is extremely easy to use for wall covering. Moreover, the size, colorfulness, or theme of the design are not limited in any way. You can have any sticker made to order.

The advantage of this method is that the sticker can be removed at any time if necessary, without damaging the wallpaper (or paint) surface.

Second Option. All on Exhibition!

Offer your child to not draw on the walls, but to display their artwork on them: set up an exhibition of the child's works (to which you can add a few of your own doodles during the process). This activity is pleasant and requires no special investment or effort.

Gradually, you can expand the gallery with new works and, if necessary, literally in one go, “roll up” the exhibition and store it in a family archive, without damaging the wall surfaces (a few holes from nails are not counted; moreover, the pictures can be hung on long threads from a ceiling cornice instead of nailing them to the wall).

Third Option. Do as the Child Says

This option involves decorating the walls with elements that your child loves most. For example, voluminous textile butterflies, flowers, cutouts of cars and more. A winning option, no matter how you look at it!

Fourth Option. Gluing Appliques

These can be paper cutouts or combinations of paper and fabric materials. The design of walls with appliques can be developed together with the child, but it is not advisable to leave the main gluing work to the child: allow him or her to apply the finishing detail or provide you with elements of the picture. This way, both the child and the walls will remain clean from glue.

Fifth Option. The Best Decoration for the Wall is Practical Decoration

Sometimes the most rational way to decorate a children's room is through beautiful and functional accessories: hooks for clothes, shelves, clocks, etc.

Sixth Option. Everything Is Good That Hangs

Various hangings, garlands, or flags can make any ordinary children's room festive and fun. In addition to hanging along the walls, such decorative elements can also be placed around the ceiling perimeter.

These can be not only paper but also fabric or even glowing garlands. Moreover, such wall decoration can have a seasonal character: for example, instead of putting up a Christmas tree for New Year, you can hang it on the wall, making not only decorations but also the tree itself from household items. This kind of festive wall decoration will definitely engage both the child and the holiday!

Seventh Option. Painting Walls in Children's Room

Start with drawings, and finish with them too. Every adult has a child inside, so you take up the brush, give the child a couple of brushes, and go ahead to paint the walls in the room!

This cooperation can be a good entertainment if you beforehand agree on what and how you will draw — in other words, divide the tasks.

Or, moving in the same direction, you can seek help from a professional and order painting of the children's room according to prepared sketches.

Here’s what can come out of it:
