CHILDREN’S BEDROOM WALL MURAL IDEAS

Posted on March 6, 2019 by Ben - Bedroom Ideas

They key to choosing the right wall mural for your child’s bedroom is to focus on what they like. This will depend on the age of the child to a certain extent and also whether they’re a boy or a girl (though that doesn’t mean your daughter won’t be into toy soldiers and robots – could well be!).

Once you’ve picked a particular interest of your child you can begin your search. Here at Wallbeard we thought we’d help you out with a little inspiration, picking on subjects your child might be interested in.

Take a look at these to give you an idea of what can be achieved with the right image.

: Every prince or princess needs a castle and they can make for some fantastic murals, no matter the size of the wall.

: This one adds a ton of colour and a lot of fun to the room. We’re thinking this might be our favourite!

: If you have pets then your kids may well like a mural that features them – remember, you can use your own photos to create a unique mural all your own. Kittens…

: …or puppies?

: For the older child, fashion might be a passion. So a suitable wall mural like this one could work well.

: Or if you want something less…brash?…a repeating pattern like this would work well.

: Dinosaurs. Yet to meet a kid who didn’t like dinosaurs at some point! But be careful…you don’t want to give them nightmares. This one is nice and friendly.

: A little grittier, but still not scary!

: Ok, getting a bit more serious now…this dinosaur wall mural might be better for the older child.

: Finally on the dinosaur front, a T Rex wall mural is brilliant…no kid can resist a T Rex, right?

: Space is a common love of children, so a fun space themed wall mural like this one is going to work REALLY well in the bedroom.

: For girls it could be unicorns and fairies – in which case a mural featuring both, like this one, is something they will LOVE!

: Of course, you can match the image to the rest of your décor…we think this one works beautifully on what is a relatively small wall area.

: If your child has no specific interests yet, that doesn’t mean you have to abandon the wall mural idea. Something generic like this will brighten up the room still.

: Illustrations are another option, like this one with its bright blue skies, colourful hot air balloons and, of course, a rainbow.

: In fact, a rainbow wall mural is a super way of introducing colour to your child’s bedroom and it doesn’t have to be complicated or fancy.

: Last but by no means least, flowers can bring colour and fun too, so a repeating pattern like this one is a great idea, especially for smaller feature walls.

What do your kids love? And would that make for a stunning mural in your home? Hopefully we’ve inspired you to give it a little thought…

WINTER MURALS AREN’T JUST FOR CHRISTMAS

Posted on November 22, 2018 by Ben - Bathroom Ideas, Bedroom Ideas, Dining Room Ideas, Kitchen Ideas, Living Room Ideas, Office Ideas

There are few more stunning sights in the world than ‘winterscapes’. Indeed, such scenes make remarkably striking wall murals and they can suit a well decorated room all year round – not just for Christmas!

Avoiding any obvious Christmas references when choosing a winter wall mural is a must, but from there the options are endless. A little bit of out of the box thinking can get you a genuinely unique look and feel, as we hope to demonstrate here with these ideas. Let us know what you think on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram.

: Careful choice of mural composition positions the bath at the end of a path through the winter woods – a nice place to be relaxing, all warm and cosy, while the weather batters away outside.

: The combination of wintry mountains and blanket of clouds is ideal for a bedroom wall mural – the mountains frame the bed, while the clouds provide a soft and inviting surround. Cosy.

: The choice of super stunning imagery like the Aurora Borealis as viewed from a frozen Iceland can act as a real counterpoint to the rest of your décor.

: There are plenty of ways to introduce a winter theme to your children’s bedroom too – instead of a photograph, a cartoon style winter scene looks amazing when positioned correctly.

: For the kitchen we’ve opted for a stark image in terms of colour, but beautiful in its composition.

: Alternatively, a bit of that out of the box thinking gave us the idea of using winter vegetables for the kitchen wall mural. And you don’t HAVE to paper all the way to the floor. Here we have stopped at the same level as the worktops, with plain white below. Works quite well, don’t you think?

: Got a passion for winter sports? This example shows what can be done with a well shot photo – and with Wallbeard’s Wallbuilder technology you can use your OWN photos, so if you’ve got a great shot of yourself or someone else skiing, snowboarding or whatever, you can use that!

: The natural winter world teems with wildlife – this arctic wolf image works fantastically well in the living room, and would make a great counterpoint to a roaring log fire.

: Winter also lends itself well to office wall murals – here we’ve used the image of a train, but it could be a winter/cityscape combination, perhaps where the business is based, or something more appropriate to the nature of the specific industry.

YOU’LL BE ON CLOUD 9 WITH THESE BEDROOM WALL MURALS

Posted on October 19, 2018 by Ben - Bedroom Ideas

We don’t think so. That’s why, if you’re after a bedroom wall mural, we recommend opting for a vista like the ones below.

Some are designed to be calming, some dramatic and some a little bit of both. We hope you’ll find some inspiration here and opt for cloud-based photo wallpaper for your bedroom, which we would be more than happy to print for you on one of our high quality wallpapers, of course!

Blue skies, white clouds…ideal for waking up to and sure to put you in a good mood for the rest of your day…every day.

Think about the layout of your bedroom and what, if anything, is going to go against the wall where your mural sits. This busier cloud formation works well with a bed against it.

There are many cloud formations to choose from – this one introduces an element of movement to your bedroom.

You can add just a splash of colour to your cloud mural with a rainbow. Positioned properly, a rainbow can be used to make your bed a centrepiece too.

Or you can offset it to create a more striking effect – this one even has a double rainbow going on!

Imagine waking up to every morning to this glorious sunrise? It doesn’t always have to be blue skies…

Or perhaps this warm, cloudy sunset is more to your taste? The oranges and yellows will really stand out in any bedroom.

Reminiscent of the sun setting over the Serengeti – at least to us – this mural retains the cloud theme but brings in a stunning array of hues. Relaxing and dynamic at the same time.

If you’ve got a hankering for the dramatic though…this is the type of wall mural you could be looking for. Choose wisely in terms of photo and positioning and you have a genuinely stunning bit of wall art.

We hope this gives you some ideas for a wall mural for your bedroom and illustrates how diverse even one theme can be. If you’ve got a cloud or sky themed wall mural in your home, why not share it with us on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram?

BEDROOM WALL MURALS TO INSPIRE AND EDUCATE YOUR CHILDREN

Posted on August 10, 2018 by Ben - Bedroom Ideas

Every child has a passion or two at any one time, one that we as parents often want to encourage. Whether it’s the a passion for learning about a particular subject, a passion for a current trend or just their favourite subject, a related wall mural displayed in their bedroom will not only encourage that passion but also amaze the child!

Wallbeard has a wide range of photo wallpaper designs created specifically to help in the education of everyone – whether it’s a map of the world, a chart of the solar system or a busy “under the sea” mural, you (or your child!) can choose from 100s of designs that will, without doubt, match your child’s interests and help them grow their knowledge and passion for it.

UNDER THE SEA

For those children who adore Spongebob Squarepants (or any other kind of marine life!) then a wall mural like this is sure to amaze.

OUTER SPACE

There’s nothing more awe-inspiring than planets, moons, stars and space rockets. So if your child is into “all that space stuff” then an equally awe-inspiring photo
wallpaper mural such as this one is just the thing for the bedroom. Add a little clever lighting and some accessories and there’s no end to what you could create.

ANIMALS & WILDLIFE

If your child is an animal lover – be it pets or wild animals – then a wall mural of their favourite animal will be ideal for his or her bedroom.

Installing a wall mural such as this in your child’s bedroom is ideal – it’s where they work, where they play, where they sleep – so they’ll enjoy and benefit from it almost all the time.
