These Moms go all “Owt” with weeDECOR’s Adorable Owl Wall Decals!

Owls are fast becoming one of the latest and greatest trends in nursery decor. Not only are they simply adorable, but they also give off that peaceful vibe that all new parents are looking for when decorating their nurseries and kids’ rooms. See how moms and dads are incorporating these feathered friends to create sweet, serene spaces for their little ones.

Our nature wall decal mural creates interest in a cozy corner of this nursery.

This mom added a special touch to her son's nursery with this personalized owl wall sticker.

Kellen’s mom is a great example of someone who went all “owt” with her nursery decor in this owl-themed room. The nature wall decal mural by the changing table is perfectly placed, allowing her little one to have something beautiful and intriguing to look at during all of those diaper changes. Two happy owls perch on graceful tree branches while some birds in flight make their way to a peaceful resting spot. There’s plenty of room for all sorts of friends on that towering tree!

Across the room, Kellen’s mom made his space personal and unique with our personalized owl wall sticker in pale blue. The colors look absolutely gorgeous and complement the other design elements so well! Mom found the super-fun rug at www.rugsusa.com and it’s only a matter of time before little Kellen starts to pitter patter from dot to dot. Mom kept the owl theme going in the crib with some adorable crib bedding by Dwell (one of our favorite designers of modern, fabulous nursery bedding).

So that other areas of the room didn’t feel left out, Kellen’s mom added some of the pieces from the nature wall decal mural to other walls. A single, sweet bird at the end of the crib watches over little Kellen when he sleeps, and yet another uses the photo collage as a landing place.

This room is such a fantastic example of a mom that uses the versatility of our designs in unexpected ways. She sticks to her chosen theme without overdoing it. Great job, mom!

weeDECOR's wall stickers make this room twice as nice!

This Quebec mom embellishes her kids’ walls with several different weeDECOR wall stickers, using color and birds to pull it all together. Aiden and Zachary share a room, but each sweet boy gets his own personal space thanks to the personalized dot arch wall decal over each bed. These wall stickers really make a statement and leave nothing to chance as to who sleeps where!

We love how this mom incorporated birds into the room with two distinct, fabulous designs. On the left, the bird branch wall decal in yellow is a cheerful, charming addition to Zachary’s side of the room. We’re sure Aiden delights in gazing up at the owl branch wall decal that hangs over his bed. What an adorable, fun room! Thanks for sharing, mom!

This mom makes Connor's space his very own with our personalized solo owl wall sticker.

The bold, bright colors of this personalized solo owl wall sticker add just the right punch of color to Connor’s nursery. A sweet, solitary owl sits contentedly on the graceful arm of a tree and keeps a close eye on this baby boy. This particular design comes in several different colors so you are sure to find a good fit for your nursery. This New York City mom selected navy/pale blue…just perfect for a little boy! She further customized her design by spelling out Connor’s name with our “Smiley” type style. We hope this personalized wall decal makes Connor and his parents smile right along with those letters! We love it!

A too-cute trio of owls takes a little break.

A Philadelphia mom found the perfect accent to her nursery with our sleeping owls wall decal. The browns and greens in this design look fantastic against the wall color. This mom used Valspar’s Betsy Ross House Moss as a great neutral color for the room. The dark walnut color in Graco’s Lauren Changing Table looks so rich against the muted walls. Unlike some of the other owls seen above, this group is fast asleep on a tree branch. It’s hard work being so adorable!

weeDECOR offers a huge variety of owl wall stickers in our collection. You’ll find owls in branches, owls in trees, and all-alone owls to adorn the walls of your nursery or kid’s room. If you’re looking for more ideas as to how to incorporate owls into your nursery or kid’s room decor, see these customer photos.

Free Stuff – Yay! A Free Wall Paint Sample Kit from Valspar

Free Wall Paint Samples from Valspar

Ooh! We like free stuff and know you do, too. If you are getting ready to paint your nursery and are in the midst of choosing wall paint color, see this offer from Valspar Paint. Starting today, Valspar will be giving away 1,000 FREE paint project starter kits a day for 100 days. Each kit includes an 8-ounce paint sample, mini roller, paint tray and coordinating paint chips. You also get a $5-off coupon for a Valspar purchase at Lowe’s stores nationwide.

To get you free starter kit, all you have to do is visit Facebook.com/ValsparPaint and click “Like”. Even the postage is free!

Valspar recommends trying a sample as the best first step in any painting project. We agree! Paint can appear to change color depending on the light in the room — whether it’s near a window or in a corner, at eye-level or near a baseboard. Designers and decorators often test paint colors before making a final selection by doing a ‘roll out.’

In addition to feeling good about “free”, purchases of Valspar branded products in 2011 support Valspar’s paint donations to Habitat for Humanity helping families benefit from the transformative power of color.

A Cute Two-Toned Painted Yellow & Pink Nursery with weeDECOR Flower Wall Decals

Pink Yellow, & Green Nursery with weeDECOR Flower Wall Decals

Tuilp & Bird Wall Decals on Bright Pink Painted Baby Room Wall

Check out this lovely two-toned painted pink and yellow nursery decorated by a weeDECOR customer from Raleigh, NC.

While we love our how this mom used our nursery wall decals, we were particularly struck by her two-toned painted walls in the baby’s room. Note how she uses a pale yellow paint as her primary color. The paint color is Benjamin Moore’s Lemon Meringue. Then, she painted her accent wall in bright pink called Crushed Berries, also by Benjamin Moore. This pink and yellow color combination is ingenious because it makes both colors brighter and brings more visual interest to the baby’s room. Your eye can’t help but be drawn to the color in a “yin and yang” sort of way.

Mom used our gorgeous modern flower wall decal mural to decorate her baby girl’s room. The decal set comes with tulip wall decals, sunflower wall decals, and butterfly and bird wall decals.

Her cute pink and green hanging crib mobileis called JuicyFruit and is from TrendLab. Precious little watermelons and strawberries with percale and paisley striped twill dangle just beyond baby’s reach.

The white crib helps make the room feel light and airy and the wall decals add the playfulness and whimsy.

Thanks, mom, for sending us photos of your wall decals.

The Best Shades of Yellow Paint for Your Nursery Walls

"Moonlight" yellow paint by Benjamin Moore for Pottery Barn Kids. pale yellow no voc paint eco-friendly paint

"Moonlight" by Benjamin Moore for Pottery Barn Kids

"Hay is for Horses" Warm Yellow Paint by Mythic for Land of Nod

"Pale Daffodil" by Behr from Rate My Space-er "KasieMoffett"

The warmth of the summer sun has inspired us to pay homage to the color yellow. In our opinion, yellow’s beauty when painting a nursery comes from its versatility as a gender neutral shade that can stand alone or accent both cool or warm colors.

If you go warm, you can accent with pinks, oranges, and greens. If you choose a cool pale yellow, white, blues, and lavender accents are delightful options.

For your quintessential pale yellow paint, try Benjamin Moore’s pale yellow called “Moonlight”. See how beautiful this cool shade of yellow looks paired with other cool colors like this pale blue for Pottery Barn Kids? This yellow is the perfect shade for an accent and would also work as an accent for a lavender, pale green, or pale pink nursery.

For a warmer shade of yellow paint for your baby’s room, try Land of Nod’s Mythic line of paint. They have a lovely, warm shade of yellow called “Hay is for Horses”. It does a nice job evoking warmth with its buttery yellow accented with red, oranges, and hot pinks.

We also like Behr’s “Pale Daffodil” yellow paint shown here in this Rate My Space-er’s hot pink and yellow painted nursery. The bright pink adds warmth and the pale yellow paint tones down the pink. The ceiling and floor moldings painted in a decorator’s white add the classic detail we love.

For ideas on other shades of yellow, consider these:

A Few of the Most Inspiring Blue Nurseries We've Ever Seen

Breakfast at Tiffany's Blue Themed Nursery

Breakfast at Tiffany's Blue Themed Baby Girl Nursery

Blue & Orange Boy's Modern Nursery with Large Tree Wall Decal

Blue Painted Striped Boy's Nursery with Monogram Wall Decal

We are always impressed when we find a clever spin on a traditional theme or color in kid’s room decorating. So, we wanted to share these three inspiring blue nurseries from Rate My Space moms that are sure to knock your socks off, too. These super creative moms turned what could be traditional blue nurseries upside down, making them anything but traditional.

This glamorous, vintage “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” blue nursery was designed by “mnm” for her baby girl named Audrey, of course . She painted the walls in “Sea Breeze” by Valspar (matched by Sherwin Williams). And, she got her oh-so-glam look with a lot of smart shopping at Target and Amazon including her black and white baby bedding and sumptuous, white shag rug. Mnm painted the wall letters herself to give Audrey an elegant personality of her own. In her other photos, you’ll see very cool black and white damask printed curtains and a damask lamp, a vintage chandelier wall decal over her glider, and a to-die-for mirrored nightstand to hold knick-knacks.

For a more modern blue nursery, we love what “Chemegal” did in her baby boy’s room using a soft blue, bright orange, and brown color palette. Her blue paint is that gorgeous “Robin’s Egg” from Benjamin Moore. She had her custom white and orange giraffe crib bedding custom made by an Etsy seamstress as well as the large brown tree wall decal behind the crib. We love how well the orange is used to accent the room as it brings warmth and visual punch. The blue and brown do their job nicely bringing a calming and cooling feel. We also like the not-as-common vertical positioning of her wall letters.

Finally, if you’re up for creative wall painting, this classy looking, blue striped painted nursery is a show-stopper. Mom-to-Be “Altortolero” painted 2 inch wide white stripes with alternating 10.5 inch wide light blue (Behr Twilight Grey) and dark blue stripes (Behr Skyline Steel) to get this look. We love how the painted stripes and two-toned wall paint make the baby’s room feel like a beautifully wrapped present with a monogram wall decal “bow” on top. We also appreciate the rich, espresso colored furniture that adds an even classier feel and the modern touches like the brown and white Dwell throw.
