Wallcharts/posters/pictures for baby's room

Absofruitly · 07/07/2008 15:59

My DS has just turned 7 months and is now installed in his own room, which we have been gradually doing up over the past few weeks (never saw the point when he was sleeping in a cot beside us for the first 6 months). The room is looking good but we need something for the walls. All that we have up there is a rocket ship clock (for my benefit when feeding him more than for his) but I would like to put up some pictures/wallchart-type things as well.

Can anyone recommend websites that sell pictures/wallcharts suitable for babies? I'm thinking farm animals and the like. What type of things did you have on the walls of your babies' rooms when they were little? All ideas welcome

I drew some pencil drawings of Bartholemew bear for Dds nursery, put them in wooden frames, they looked lovely! Do you draw? Or maybe know someone who does, much more personal.

I've just had delivered some large wooden letters in DS name. Spray painted them and added some little wooden animals also ordered from the net. I'm not arty at all but I'm so pleased with them. I've also got the apple tree sticker from JoJo Mama he loves looking at the the bright colours.

Thanks for all the suggestions! Just looked at the JoJo Maman site and like the look of the glow-in-the-dark stickers, so may well go down that route. Alas, I cannot draw for toffee, so am envious of your abilities Izzy.

Ooh, you must look here if you're thinking of stickers, they're amazing. DSs2&3 have the wee gallery jungle and DS1 (4) has space invaders. They're brilliant!

Have you tried stickarounds. I have some for DS2. They are a really easy way to decorate if you are rubbish at art like me and also easily removeable.

try this We have jungle safri, you can see it if you click on zoom

My Dd has a Farm theme in her room. We found some nice greetings cards with animal prints on them, so simply framed them. She also has a cross stitch sampler (courtesy of MIL), and then on the back of her door she has one of the posters other MN's have mentioned above. It's specifically a Farm one, photos of animals and cartoon farmyard at the bottom. It was a pressie and think it came from an independant shop so sorry can't give you a link.

Alterntively you could frame some nice wrapping paper if you see something you like
