Room Stickers, Removable Wall Decals, Wall Murals Stickers - FunToSeeā„¢ Ltd

Looking for an affordable, easy decorating solution for your kid's bedroom? With so much advice out there, it's sometimes difficult to know where to start. From wall stickers, painted murals, vinyl decals to painting, wallpapering or stenciling - you'll be able to find decorating ideas to accommodate most budgets - it really depends on what you're looking for.

Wall Stickers

If you want to theme a room for your child, then one of the easiest and most cost effective ways to makeover your child's room is with vinyl wall stickers or wall decals (as they're sometimes referred). Your 2 or 3 year old son may be interested in dinosaurs, but grow out of them by the time he's 5 or 6; he may now prefer a Pirate or Alien theme. Using dinosaur wall stickers is a fun way to theme a wall or jazz-up furniture. Look out for good quality wall stickers which state they're removable and re-stickable, this makes updating the look much easier. Many sticker themes will also complement bedding sets; a simple way to create a coordinated look. There are a wide range of licensed sticker products available on the market, for example, The Gruffalo, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, Barbie, In the Night Garden, Thomas the Tank Engine and many more. For those who prefer original, unlicensed designs there are wonderful alternatives for nurseries and children's rooms. We found FunToSee have quite an extensive range of wall stickers. There are also some great themes like cowboys, planes or flowers available from Cath Kidston.

Wallpaper or Wall Stickers?

If you prefer a more traditional approach, you'll find a lot of beautifully illustrated wallpaper now available. From cars, butterflies, stars and hearts, to clever repeat patterns. The chances are you'll find a theme that's suitable for your child's bedroom. With wallpaper you'll need to take into consideration the time and effort required; it's messier than wall stickers, as most need to be applied with wallpaper paste. Matching the wallpaper can be tricky too. There's no doubt that if done properly, the result can be dramatic. Unfortunately, wallpaper isn't that easy to remove. So, while this solution is good for the long term, it isn't recommended if you only want to theme a room for a short period of time, especially as children's tastes can change so quickly. Wallpaper Direct has a good choice of wallpaper designs, as well as all the tools you may need to get you started.

Painting or Wall Stickers?

If you're looking for a simple, natural effect, then paint may be your answer. It's very important to prepare walls carefully before applying your paint. Ensure you buy the best tools and equipment you can afford. With basic equipment you can achieve some fantastic paint effects - a wavy line with masking tape or a beautiful border with a themed stencil. There are many stencil choices available, including animals, butterflies, flowers and stars. If you opt for painted walls in a plain colour, you still have the option to add some fun to the walls with wall stickers - theme a whole room, add a splash of colour to a small space, create a border or decorate painted doors and furniture. Dulux have a fantastic range of colours to choose from.

Murals or Wall Stickers?

Painted murals are a beautiful way to transform a room. There are mural painting kits available, including paint by number solutions. For a fine art finish, hand painted murals are probably best left to the professionals unless you have an artistic flair. You'll be able to discuss the look and feel you want to achieve across one wall or around the entire room. Then leave them to it! The room may be out of action for several days or weeks, depending on the complexity of the design and allowing time for paint fumes to go. Hand painted murals can be a very effective but expensive option. Starlight Murals have a range of mural designs for kids' rooms.
Decorating a room for your new baby or young child should be fun; the possibilities are endless. The choice is yours.

Happy Decorating.

So you've decorated the rest of the house in cool, muted shades for an uncluttered, minimal look that oozes calm and sophistication. What about creating a space for the kids? Children's rooms can be difficult, as they need to serve a range of different purposes, from sleeping and relaxation to play, creativity, homework and hobbies. Here are some ideas to get you started:

1. The keywords are - easy, functional and fun! Make sure there's plenty of storage - whether it's built-in wardrobes and shelving or freestanding units that can double as handy room dividers

2. Interior organisers can be concealed in the wardrobe for loose items like shoes, hats, scarves and bags

3. Personalise your child's space with vinyl room stickers such as Fisher-Price's Animals of the Rainforest animal stickers. There are a wide selection of room stickers to choose from, including undersea animals, jungle animals, farm animals and even aliens! Some kids' may prefer sport stickers, in which case a football or racing car theme may be just the ticket. Room stickers are available from FunToSee, Animals of the Wild and Blik Wall Graphics.

4. Use hooks on the back of the door for extra storage that helps keep the floor tidy

5. Cabin beds are ideal for children over the age of six as you can squeeze in a desk or futon underneath

6. If your children are of school age, you'll need somewhere for them to concentrate on homework so try to fit in a desk wherever possible

7. Position the desk in natural light, near a window, and provide a desk lamp and some office storage boxes for books,paper and pens so everything is within easy reach

8. A practical office chair is essential for good posture - you can find colourful versions for children in stores such as Ikea

9. Make sure they also have a dedicated task light for bedtime stories

10. Look for space-saving beds with underbed storage or a second bed hidden underneath for spontaneous sleepovers

11. A comfy chair in the corner creates the perfect environment for reading and relaxing. Pastel coloured room stickers add a subtle, relaxing touch to a reading area.

12. Be confident with colour. If you don't want to go down the pastel route, consider a striking striped effect with blocks of red, blue, orange and green. Paint your own canvas to hang on the wall or frame sheets of wrapping paper or wallpaper for some instant art

13. Hang some string from one end of the wall to the other, well out of your child's reach, and display their artwork with wooden or coloured clothes pegs

14. User room stickers to display your artwork, messages or even invites. Unlike pins and tack, room stickers don't leave a mess on the walls and can be re-positioned time and time again.

Making the decision to decorate your child's bedroom should be fun and as stress-free as possible. With so many alternatives to choose from, it's understandable that sometimes you just won't know where to start. In this article we will be focusing on wall murals and the different options available to create a beautiful mural in your kid's bedroom.

Murals can certainly add dramatic impact to your room. Before you start, it's important to consider a few factors

1. If it's for your child, take some guidance from what type of theme they may like, but not get board of quickly
2. Consider the age of the child or children - this will also help determine the type of mural you may like to create - some are more permanent than others
3. Gender - if you have a boy and girl sharing a room you may need to think about a theme that works for both genders like a safari or under water theme
4. Wall space - are you thinking of creating a mural for one wall or two? What size wall will you be covering - this will affect the budget and time taken to decorate the area
5. Budget - there are many different price alternatives for murals, from beautifully illustrated hand painted murals by professionals, which could work out quite expensive, to use of removable and repositionable stickers to create your own mural

Once you have decided on a theme with your child, look into the various options of wall murals available. There's a huge range available; from wallpaper murals, professionally hand-painted murals, paint by number mural kits and vinyl wall stickers.

Wall Stickers
Wall Stickers are a cheap, effective solution to creating a wall mural. Designing a wall mural on two walls with wall stickers can cost as little as Ā£40 for the stickers and about Ā£15 for a couple of pots of paint. With an extensive range of themes available for boys, girls and both genders, wall stickers are fast becoming a firm favourite with mums and dads. The added benefit of some wall stickers are that they are removable, so as the child grows older, it's quite easy to re-theme the room with a more 'grown-up' wall mural. So maybe your 2 year old daughter is really keen on having a princess themed room, it's easy to create a wall mural by painting a powder pink background, with blue sky, and use the room stickers to create a princess themed mural. When your daughter grows up, she may want to choose a surf them and you will be able to find wall stickers to create a new wall mural. Many wall stickers remove from the wall without leaving any trace, so they won't damage walls. A range of wall stickers are available from Blik and FunToSee.

Wallpaper Murals
Wallpaper murals are an effective way to decorate one or two walls in a room and guarantee dramatic impact. There's so much choice of printed wallpaper available now and the latest printed styles are a far cry from the patterned, embossed wallpaper of yesteryear. Take into consideration the effort needed to ensure the walls are prepared and ready to be papered. You'll need to remove any existing wallpaper, if any, and ensure any holes are patched up. Wallpaper Murals are probably best suited for older children and teenagers who's taste may not change as frequently. A 260cm x 180 cm wallpaper mural could cost you around Ā£70. Also consider costs for wallpaper paste, brushes and a table.
You'll find a great selection from Just Murals

Paint by numbers Wall Murals
There are two paint by numbers methods available. The first is using an overhead projector to enlarge the transparency onto the wall. This gives you the freedom to choose the size of the mural, and position, but you will need to either buy or hire an overhead projector.
The second method is by using a paper transfer. Affix the transfer by tape to the wall and trace and paint following the paint colour guide supplied. Paint by numbers wall murals are a cost effective way to decorate a wall, but ensure you have a steady hand for painting all the intricate designs, otherwise it may look messy. Paint by number wall murals start at about Ā£35 for the smaller kits. Available from Wall Art Designs.

Hand-painted Murals
For a fine art finish, hand-painted wall murals are probably best left to the professionals unless you have an artistic flair. You will be able to discuss the theme, colour and illustrative style with a professional, to ensure you get the finish you are looking for. The room may be out of use for a while, whilst the mural takes shape. There are many artists available with different illustrative styles and the cost will normally be determined by theme and style.

When deciding upon a room makeover for your kid's room, the first consideration will be the age of the child. Is it a newborn baby's room you are decorating, or has your toddler grown out of his or her baby room, and you're looking to makeover the bedroom to be more suitable. Plan what you want to do and then research options that will best suit you.

Start by having a clear out. Give away any old toys, clothes, books, or any items that are no longer used by your child. This will create a great deal of space. The less clutter in a kid's room the better. Chances are they will use their valued items a lot more.

For those who want to theme walls or create a mural, wall stickers are a great alternative. Wall stickers are a quick, easy and cost effective method of transforming walls from dull to dramatic. There are a range of themes available on the market which will help complete a specific theme. From Princess to Pirates, the chances are you will find wall stickers to match. Most vinyl stickers are simple to use.

FunToSee wall stickers are great as they are kiss-cut, without any white borders so they truly look like a painted on wall mural. WallCandy and Decofun also have a wide selection of wall stickers to choose from.

Organise the room. Look at what you have in the room and establish what furniture you may need to accommodate this. Do you have a chest of draws that is over-flowing? Perhaps you can take some seasonal items out and store them in a plastic box under the bed. Plasticstorage.co.uk has a great range of plastic storage boxes starting from Ā£1.50. These are also great for storing toys and books. To jazz up furniture and toy boxes add wall stickers to the boxes. Many of them are cleanly removable so they won't damage the furniture.

Is the bedroom small? Loft beds are a great way of creating space under the bed, which can be used for a desk or bookshelf. Some of them even come with sofa-bed for sleepovers. Kiddiebeds.co.uk has a great range of loft beds. Themed and Funky bedding can brighten up a room instantly, so even a plain painted room can come to life with bright bedding. Kidzdenz.co.uk offers a unique range of kids bedding.

Another important factor to consider in your kids room makeovers is the flooring. Does your kid's room have carpet? Carpets can get stained quite easily. Parquet or hard wood flooring is best to keep a kid's floor neat and tidy. As most carpets contain dust mites, this may affect children with allergies. If you like the sensation of having a carpet then a consider having a rug which can be washed frequently.

Before starting, take into consideration your budget. How much do you want to spend? Kids' room makeovers don't have to be too expensive if you shop around online, but most important of all get your kid involved and have fun!

Here are our top tips for easy expansion.

Start with practical storage and an organised space. Have a good clearout of anything they have grown out of - this includes clothes, toys and books - and start with an empty room. This makes room makeovers easier and gives you the space to think clearly.

Do they need more shelving or covered storage? Does the existing furniture meet the needs of your child? Do they need a bigger bed or a desk for schoolwork? You may not have needed a wardrobe until now, but would a canvas clothes rail come in handy? And what about a spare bed for friends to sleep over? It doesn't need to be an expensive purchase - think about a pullout chair bed or inflatable bed that can be stowed away when not in use. For great room makeover ideas, try toytidy.com who stock a range of toy storage, desks and furniture.

Talk to your children about whether they'd like to change the look of their walls. A fresh lick of paint is an option; though for a cheap and easy solution of creating a fresh new look, wall decals are a hot favourite at the moment. There are an extensive range of wall decals available, including themes for boys and girls. FunToSee.com has removable and re-stickable wall decals for kids rooms. They can be applied to walls, doors and furniture and cleanly removed and re-stuck if you wish to reposition the wall decal.

Girls may require a dressing table with mirror and drawers for hair accessories and trinkets, while boys will need plenty of baskets and buckets for general storage. You'll find an adorable range of room accessories at Great Little Trading Company. Visit Gltc.co.uk to see their collection. If you decide to go for a plain dressing table or wooden boxes you can use wall decals to add a personal touch of colour to them. Choose from shaped wall decals like hearts, dots and stars.

Encourage children to tidy up after themselves by installing a pop-up laundry bin in their room then ask them to tell you when it's full. It will give them a sense of independence and you could always prompt them if you know it's full. Linenstore.co.uk have laundry baskets to match bedding.

Bold patterns for duvets will also take them one step away from pre-school character sets. Complete the look with carefully chosen accessories.

Room makeovers don't have to cost the earth - you don't need to splash out if budget is limited. Simply changing the position of the furniture and sticking some wall decals on walls and furniture can give the room a whole new look.
