Sports Theme Nursery Murals

by Leave a Comment

A sports theme mural is a great idea for your nursery, especially if you or your spouse are sports lovers!  You don’t have to pick just one sport either. Here are some murals that combine several sports. The first one includes basketball, racing, hockey, baseball, and football.

This next one makes it look like it’s the child’s sports equipment. I love that the basketball is just about ready to drop into the hoop.

But if you are partial to a particular sport then run with it.  Here’s a Mets baseball theme mural, but you can customize a mural like this to pretty much any one of your favorite teams.

And how about  this baby nursery painted by www.artisticalternatives.com.  They have painted the team jerseys as if they were literally hanging from hooks on the wall.  So creative!

Whatever you choose for your sports theme nursery mural there is a wide variety of bedding and other nursery accessories to go with it.  Another great thing about going with a sports themed mural is that it can grow with your child.  It may even last up into the teen years without any embarrassment (unlike the Elmo and Barney who you would have to paint over by the time they turn 4.

What’s your favorite sport?  Would you consider doing a sports themed mural in your child’s nursery?

And be sure to check out these sports themed baby nursery decor!  Love all the great bedding options!

Mural Artist Spotlight – Robin Weiss (Paint Your World)

We always enjoy meeting fellow artists who share in the passion of painting baby nurseries and children’s rooms.  Robin Weiss is a mural painter out of Forest Hills, New York.  Her company is called Paint Your World.

Here are a few questions that we have asked Robin so that you can get to know her a little bit better.

  • How long have you been in business? Paint Your World has been bringing joy to client’s walls and furniture since 2000
  • What areas do you service? Nassau County, Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn and the Bronx
  • How did you get started? I have a background in fine arts, and a Bachelor’s of Fine Arts Degree from the University of Michigan. After graduation, I embarked on a career in the business sector of the textile and fashion industry, however, I always knew I wanted to own my own business and use my artistic talents to make a living. By chance, when a friend was having her first baby in early 2000, she asked if I could paint a mural in her nursery. My response was “why not?” and after a completion, I knew I had found the career I had been searching for. Paint Your World was born!
  • What is your favorite nursery mural that you have ever done? (include picture) It’s so hard to choose a favorite! Each one is like my own baby – but if pressed, I would have to say “Hey Diddle Diddle” is one of my top choices. I developed a close friendship with that client afterwards, and when they began to expand their family, they had to move and leave behind that wonderful mural. She was heartbroken, but has since hired me again to paint a new one in their new home!

  • Is there a nursery mural theme that you have not done yet that you would love to do? I can’t think of a particular one; I love illustrating scenes from children’s nursery rhymes, so anytime a client requests that it’s extra fun for me.
