Baby Nursery Wall Decor

A fabric lion head, a macramé plush toy hammock, a poetic swan: wall decor gives the baby's room its character. Soft, lightweight pieces that are easy to hang and dress the walls without overcrowding them.

Dressing the walls of a baby's room

The wall is the largest free surface in a room, and often the saddest. Well-chosen wall decor gives the space structure, sets a theme for the room and catches baby's eye, since babies love to stare at shapes and contrasts long before they can name them.

Choosing pieces suited to a child's room

Opt for light, soft materials: fabric, felt, macramé, thin rattan. If they fall, they pose no danger, unlike framed pieces with glass. Our fabric animal heads and bohemian decorations hang with a simple nail or an adhesive tab, with no need to drill lots of holes in your walls.

Where to hang, and at what height?

Above the bed, hang only very light, securely fastened items, never anything heavy. The plush toy hammock goes in a corner, within the parents' reach but out of baby's reach in the early months. Around the changing table, a pretty wall piece holds baby's attention during diaper changes, which helps more often than you'd think.

Putting together a cohesive look

The secret to a harmonious room comes down to one rule: a palette of three colors and one theme. Pair an animal head with our wall stickers, add a garland, and the whole thing tells a story. Our articles on how to decorate a child's room and the principles of a harmonious room give the complete method.
