Are you expecting a baby and feeling the urge to nest but unsure where to start? You don’t need to be an interior designer to come up with nursery décor your little one will love! When preparing the nursery, it’s a good idea to start with a theme or statement piece and build out from there.
A wallpaper mural is a fun, easy way to add warmth and personality to your baby’s room. Once you’ve chosen one that speaks to you, you can coordinate the colours of the furniture and other nursery decorations to match, creating a room that’s picture perfect for your new arrival!

A good sense of fun

Counting these silly little sheep with your bundle of joy can put a smile on your face and help both of you get to sleep. This mural is a great option if you find that a wallpaper mural covering a whole wall is too overwhelming.

The advantages of using wall murals for a nursery
Muralunique’s wallpaper murals are washable and easy to install. Unlike other artwork, they can be placed on the wall right against the crib without any fear of picture frames or other heavy items falling onto the child. They are also removable and reusable, meaning that they can be replaced or updated with more age-appropriate murals as the child gets older.
Muralunique murals are made of wood pulp and polyester fibre. They contain no plastic and come pre-pasted with a water-based, odourless glue, making them eco-friendly and biodegradable. Due to their composition and finish, they are able to absorb and release moisture and are therefore resistant to mildew and bacteria. They are also fire resistant. All of these characteristics make them completely safe for infants and children.
