Baby Nursery Tree Mural Ideas for 2012
The most popular baby nursery mural of all time is the "Tree Mural". Trust me, I am a mural artist and I have hand painted all different types of trees in baby nurseries here in New York. You can see examples of my work here - www.surfaceswithpaint.com But in spite of the tree being the number one request of clients, I love when artists get creative with their designs. This first design was done by Octopus Tree Design and I love, love, love the color scheme. Who would ever think to paint the walls a deep olive green in a baby nursery? ...

Dog Themed Nursery Murals
Dog lovers have no need to feel left out. There are great ways to incorporate your love of dogs into a dog themed baby nursery mural. Some people even incorporate actual portrait paintings of their family pet dogs right into the mural. I love this mural from www.muralsbymorgan.com The dogs pop against the soft colored background. This dog themed mural is fun and playful. Curious dogs are hiding behind the tall grass. It almost seems like you can reach out and touch them. www.figmentorpigment.com How about incorporating puppies into your baby nursery wall mural? So cute! Found this one on www.yvonnescustommurals.com Love it. Even if ...

Monkey Themed Baby Nursery Ideas
My children LOVE monkeys. One of their favorite monkeys is the well known CURIOUS GEORGE. They watch the cartoon every morning on PBS Kids. I have never seen a Curious George mural, so I decided to do a little searching on Google to see what I could find. I found a few ideas that are actually super easy to do because they are done with wall decals. But Curious George is not the only cute and lovable monkey. There are so many more cute monkey ideas that you can bring into the baby nursery. I found this one on www.joelenbakes.blogspot.com. It seems ...
Decorating your Toddler’s Room with their Help
As parents of toddlers, we sometimes think that they are too young to decide on things that they like, especially when it comes to decorating their rooms. Often, we decorate according to our tastes and preferences, forgetting that our toddlers are actually old enough to know what their likes and dislikes are, especially between the ages of two and three. What you can do: Talk with your toddler and explain what you are about to do. You can tell them that together you will make it look “prettier” or “nicer”. Use whatever adjective that suits you. Give them a choice as to what ...
