Decoration ideas for the nursery
The nursery is a very special room where you and your little one will spend lots of time together.
Carefully chosen and lovingly arranged décor can create an atmosphere of warmth and comfort in the nursery – two aspects that are crucial for your baby’s development and well-being. We’ll show you what it takes to transform the nursery into such a cosy space.
1. Wall decals
Wall decals offer a lovely way to brighten up the nursery with minimal DIY effort. It’s best to choose child-friendly designs such as cute animals or idyllic houses and place them above the changing table, for example. That way, your little one will always have something lovely to look at whilst being changed.
Tips for decorating your nursery with wall stickers
- Quality: Choose high-quality wall decals that are easy to apply and can be removed without leaving any residue. If you’re not sure whether the wall decal will stick to your wall, you can order a free adhesive sample from Limmaland and test the adhesion beforehand.
- Choice of design: Choose child-friendly designs that create a cosy atmosphere in the nursery.
- Placement: Position the wall sticker as an eye-catcher above the changing table, the cot or next to the wardrobe.
2. Wall stickers
Wall stickers make decorating the nursery a breeze. Just a sticker here, a sticker there, and suddenly those bare nursery walls look inviting. The best bit? There’s a huge choice! Wall stickers come in every shape, colour and size imaginable. Choose designs that give you plenty of creative freedom, such as colourful circles, stars or planets, and decorate the nursery exactly to your taste.
Tips for decorating your baby’s room with wall stickers
- Choosing designs: Experiment with different shapes and colours. How about some pink stars by the cot, for example, or a little ‘ DINO’ above the light switch?
- Arrangement: Create a lively environment by placing the wall stickers at different heights and in irregular patterns. Feel free to experiment, as the sticker sets from Limmaland are easy to remove and reposition.
3. Wall shelves
Wall shelves aren’t just practical – they’re also a decorative feature for the nursery. They offer a stylish way to display cute soft toys, books and other accessories. And if you combine them with a matching wall sticker, they’ll become a real eye-catcher in the room.
Tips for your nursery with wall shelves
- Storage space: Use wall-mounted shelves to keep practical items such as nappies, baby care products or toys within easy reach.
- Decoration: Decorate the shelves with cute little baskets, books or small decorative items to brighten up the room and display your favourite things.
- Safety: Wall shelves should always be fitted professionally to ensure they do not pose a risk of falling. When choosing shelves, also look for ones with rounded edges to further enhance safety.
4. Furniture film
Furniture wraps are not only practical, but also a creative way to spruce up IKEA children’s tables, cupboards and chairs in the nursery. They offer a simple way to give the furniture a new look and to decorate the room to suit your own style. This gives second-hand furniture in particular a new lease of life.
Tips for your nursery using furniture wraps
- Practicality : Use furniture films to cover up scratches and signs of wear and tear and give the furniture a fresh new look. They also provide an easy-to-clean surface
- Flexibility : Furniture films allow you to change the décor of the nursery according to your needs and preferences. If your taste changes or the room is redecorated, the films can simply be replaced or removed without leaving any residue.
Nursery décor: Choosing the right wall colour
Choosing the right wall colour is key to creating a harmonious and cheerful atmosphere in the nursery. The colour you choose can have a significant impact on your baby’s mood and well-being. It is therefore important to make this decision carefully and to take the following factors into account.
Popular colours for the nursery
Delicate pastel shades and soothing wall colours are all the rage in the nursery! But you don’t have to stick to just pink and light blue. A lovely mint, grey and mustard also combine beautifully in the nursery. These soft colours lend the room a peaceful and soothing atmosphere, whilst at the same time filling it with light without being overwhelming. And the best bit? You can combine them perfectly with accents in bolder shades to give the room a lively touch.
But don’t worry if pastel shades aren’t your thing! After all, what matters most is that the nursery reflects your personal style and creates a loving, welcoming environment where your little one feels safe and secure.
Here are a few examples to help you choose the right wall colour and décor for your baby’s room.
1. Soft grey
Opt for a soft grey that doesn’t overwhelm the room but creates a calm atmosphere. Combine the grey with white accents for a modern touch. As grey is timeless and versatile, you can pair it with various decorative elements and colours. Perfect, isn’t it?
2. Soft beige
Opt for a soft beige, which gives the room a warm and soothing feel. Combine it with natural materials such as wood to create a cosy atmosphere where you can’t help but feel at ease.
3. Soothing green
Choose a soft shade of green to create a relaxing and refreshing atmosphere in the nursery. Combine this light pastel colour with other shades of green or warm earth tones to bring a natural warmth to the room.
Tips for colour combinations & accents
- Colour accents: Use accent colours such as yellow, pink or light blue to create playful contrasts. Make sure the colours harmonise well with one another and create a balanced overall effect.
- Patterns: Consider using patterns to add a cheerful touch to the nursery. Wallpaper featuring child-friendly motifs or geometric patterns can be an interesting design idea.
- Accent wall: Highlight a single wall as an accent wall by painting it a different colour or covering it with wallpaper. This allows you to add depth and personality to the room.
