Penguin Wallpaper for Kids Room Decor by Isak

Penguin Wallpaper for Kids Room

Brrr!!!  We’re starting to feel the seasonal chill which inspired us to seek out creative cold weather decor ideas to bring more positive feelings towards winter.  This vibrant turquoise or aqua and white penguin wallpaper did the trick!  This wallpaper was designed by ISAK, a UK brand of design gifts and coordinated home accessories. Isak is all about beautiful happy things and was founded by designer Sandra Isaksson. Sandra’s Scandinavian style brings splashes of color influenced by her heritage and travels. She is a graphic designer and illustrator for textile, wallpaper, and prints.

We love the idea of using it to decorate a playroom as shown in the image above.  Hanging the penguin wallpaper on one wall allows you to make a bold statement without overwhelming the space.  This wallpaper is also a great decor item of which to decorate around.  Find colorful furniture pieces and accessories to bring some warmth to the room like the warm red and orange storage boxes depicted here.  Or, hang these snowflakes from the ceiling from Land of Nod to keep the chill on.

For the modern mom, this wallpaper would lend itself to a one-of-a-kind nursery.  With a modern white crib, white crib bedding, and other penguin decor, create a gender neutral penguin themed nursery.  Or, create a winter wonderland with other friendly cold-weather animals like seals and moose.  We ran across this cute personalized penguin baby blanket to help get you started.

This penguin wallpaper is sourced from sustainable forestry and made in the UK. The surface can be wiped clean when hung. Each roll is 52cm wide and 10m long (remember, the UK is on the metric system). Price is per roll.

Flower Wallpaper for a Girl's Room

Make a statement with this floral patterned wallpaper we found at Murals for Kids.  The hand-drawn art of the flowers would create such a unique look that your baby’s nursery or girl’s room will look like no one else’s. 

Because this floral nursery wallpaper is such a powerful design element, you can build a lot around it.  For example, this wallpaper would work well with romantic-styled white baby furniture that has soft curves to it such as the Darcy Fixed Gate 3-in-1 crib from Pottery Barn Kids. 

You will need to use a lot of solids to tone down the pattern when buying baby bedding, curtains, or rugs.  For example, choose one color in the wallpaper you want to accentuate.  You could match the purple or lavender in the wallpaper to this purple comforter from Company Kids.

Another clever use is to apply the wallpaper to one of your four walls (maybe behind the bed or the crib).  Then, paint the other three walls with one of the colors you would like to accentuate.  For example, paint the other three walls a bright sunny yellow, that matches the yellow flowers in the wallpaper.

So many creative options to call your own!
