sharks

pirates

They look best when you see them as in a room - demo to right of screen.

Am also in LOVE with www.muralsdirect.co.uk/wallpapermurals/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=6

Bit on a budget though.

Although I am a major shark fan, I prefer the pirate wallpaper. I think it will leave you will more options for co-ordinating the room, whereas the sharks are so big as to be overbearing.

Gawd some of the murals are fab fab. Not sure about the sharks or skulls though, like the effect but they are a bit fierce? But I am a soft, would dress ds aged 4 and 11 in powder blue cardies if I could get away with it..

Murals are fab aren't they? I want the cowssomewhere in my house!

If I had the sharks or pirates it would be on one wall. I'm not sure if the scheme might be a bit 'cold' with the sharks as I'd use grey/blue on other walls and white I think. The house is new/modern ish and I kind of think the sharks would work better in a house with character, i.e. Victorian or Georgian property.

Don't want it to become too 'themed' either as A) I don't like themes too much and B) the boys are getting older (7 and 5)

Yes, babushka! Me too!

One could go mural mad. I have envisaged one in every room of my house - babushka in DD's room, cows in living room, etc.
