Nursery Wall Murals

Choosing a nursery wall mural

A nursery mural can establish the room's theme without requiring every furnishing to match. Begin with the mood you want to create. A fairytale castle can give the room a storybook focal point, while moon, star and tree designs feel quieter and work well with a bedtime setting. A solar-system or galaxy scene brings a more adventurous direction. Look at the artwork's scale as well as its colors: large, open shapes usually read more clearly from across the room than a design filled with small details.

Think about the wall as part of the whole room. A mural behind a crib or changing area may be partly obscured by furniture, so check where the castle, moon, tree, planet or other focal detail appears. A composition with interest spread across the width can be easier to place than one that depends on a single low subject. Also consider how the design will work if furniture moves as the room changes over time.

Measure and prepare with care

Measure the intended wall at several points and note skirting boards, sloped ceilings, doors, windows and switches. Use the sizing information on the individual product page to choose the closest fit and review how the image may be cropped for your wall's proportions. Keep key artwork away from unavoidable obstructions where possible.

Before installation, make sure the wall is clean, smooth and ready for wallpaper. The application guide explains the general preparation and hanging process; always follow the instructions provided with the product you order. Plan enough uninterrupted time to align the panels carefully.
