The ultimate children's design resource

Mom and Baby Animal Nursery

A Project For: Gia
Age: 6 months
Location: Toms River, NJ
Description:
I painted the Murals around this Nursery to bring out the colors in the Bedding, as well as the theme, without being completely literal. By painting the pairs more realistically, the Mural will transition into a childs room.
Design Inspiration:
The bedding inspired the colors and subject
Decorating Style:
warm, environmentally safe, realistic, artistic
Project Details:
I use no VOC Paints. Don't be afraid to explore all of your color options, but choose your bedding and window treatments first. It is much easiwer to match wall colors to linens then linens to wall colors!
Favorite Items:
Paint!
Advice:
Use your imagination!

THIS IS JUST WONDERFUL! Your murals really made the room look spectacular. I would be uncomfortable with something so permanent on my walls, but really it’s worth keeping forever!

Thank-you Dandelion, you are very kind. I wouldn’t want that forever either, I just want the child to enjoy it more then 2 or 3 years. It is only paint, so, I guess for me it is easy to just paint over it! lol

The mural is beautiful. My Mom is going to do something similar with my nursery :) Can I ask where you got the bedding? It’s adorable!

Hi! I am a Mom and a Muralist. There is nothing more fun then Decorating a Babies Room! I try to paint Murals using the colors and themes from the bedding, with a twist. The more realistic, the longer the child will enjoy it.
