Great Tips for Painting your Nursery

Are you searching for an alternative to all the same old nursery themes? Why not try painting your baby room with your own design? From simply throwing up a coat of cute pink paint to getting a bit more creative, you can really have a lot of fun designing this one special room that you will be spending a great deal of time in. However, not many people know where to begin on such a big project. Here are some helpful baby nursery painting ideas to get you on your way.

Borders

  • Stencil – When you hit the hobby shops or even a baby store you will find that they have tons of stencils there to help with the baby nursery painting. You can find anything from letter stencils to stencils with wonderful shapes and designs to make your nursery a truly magical place. A few examples would be to stencil the alphabet as a border around the room, make a stencil border of any Disney character, or simply make a stencil border that has sheep or even clouds. The sky is really the limit.
  • Chair rail – When you add a border like a chair rail it really helps add dimensions to the room as well as helps add that extra color in that you wanted to. Furthermore, you can even use a few stencils from above and add a design to that chair rail.

Stripes

If you love animals and are thinking of doing a circus theme then you should try some stripes. These are extremely easy to do and take no time at all. This is perfect for those that simply do not have enough time before the big day arrives and really want to make the room special. Try red and white stripes, or simply pink and white or blue and white.

Murals

You would be surprised at just how easy a mural is to paint. You do not need to have an art degree or even be that artistically inclined. However, if you are a bit weary of trying it yourself why not check out your local high school art room and find some willing students to give you a hand. However, if you are brave enough to tackle it yourself then you will be happy to hear that there are many baby stores out there that can help you with your baby nursery murals.

Designs

You may find that you are looking for more of a look rather than a theme. This may mean using some unique painting techniques to simply add a few designs to your wall or you may find that you just want to stick with various pictures. There are many places that sell or even give away movie posters with things like Disney movies on them, or you can just paint various pictures on the wall. This is where your creativity can really shine through. Just remember not to worry about not getting it just right as paint can always be painted or wallpapered over.
