GREEN and WHITE NURSERY DECOR

SEE MORE HERE

As you can see, the main feature of the green and white nursery decor that you see in the pictures are the painted lime green and white stripes on the nursery walls. In addition to the stripes on the walls, there is a very unique tree with a rope defining the outline of its branches that reach across the top of the walls and over the window, an original painting of a princess (a likeness of the baby girl's mom) kissing a frog and a painting of a large castle.

The green wall paint color and wall painting ideas all work together to create a unique frog prince nursery theme. The green and white nursery decor and painted stripes on the wall give the room a crisp, tailored style that is softened by the whimsical art created by two loving parents.

TWIN NURSERY WALL IDEAS

The twin nursery wall ideas that you see in the above picture are pretty amazing. So much so that they took 1st place in a baby nursery photo contest. At first glance, you might see a nursery for twins and think, "That's cute, but there's nothing that I couldn't do myself". And you would be absolutely correct; no fancy wall painting techniques to learn, no wallpaper to hang. There's not even a wallpaper border, a chair rail or painted woodwork! But the color scheme and overall nursery design works so well that it won first place in a nursery decorating contest!

This twin nursery is painted in a soft, sage green paint color with some framed artwork over the baby crib and a simple black and white window valance, nothing fancy. I decided to take a look at the twin nursery pictures and imagine a complex pattern painted on the nursery walls. When I tried it, I just didn't like how the wall dominated those adorable twin boy and girl art prints. I even pulled my portfolio of twin nursery wall ideas to see if I could find a color or wall painting technique that I might prefer over the solid green paint and failed.

I took this as a reminder that the design of stunning wall decor does NOT have to be complicated. There are times when simplicity is the best route to take.

How to Paint Black and White Stripes

Ever since I saw this picture I have wanted to learn how to paint black and white stripes on the walls of my music room. While painting vertical and uneven stripes on the walls has been done so much that it's almost commonplace, the painted horizontal stripes on this wall really knocked me out; they are so contemporary and sharp looking.

I noticed that in the pictures, the DIY painter broke up the pattern with strategically positioning wall quotes as focal points in the room and by bouncing polka dot wall decals throughout the design. Since the stripes in the pictures were in a baby's nursery these decorative touches in addition to the artwork were appropriate and softened the impact of the painting technique while leaving the very desirable high contrast that is known to be visible to newborns very early.

Adults who go to the trouble to learn how to paint black and white stripes for a master bedroom will probably leave them unadorned for an uncluttered, modern look.

NURSERY PAINTING IDEAS PICTURES and TIPS

NURSERY MURAL IDEAS!

New parents looking for nursery painting ideas, pictures and tips can find a wealth of information by visiting what, in the past, may have been adult oriented home decorating websites. Sites that had previously focused on the living areas, kitchens, bathrooms and master bedrooms realized that there was a bigger need for design advice for the walls of the nursery than any other.

Often the decor of the baby's room is much more complex than bedrooms for the older occupants of the home. Elaborate nursery themes played out in nursery wall murals, the display of sentimental items on multiple shelves and framed artwork requires more talent to pull all of the decorative elements together tastefully in what may be a less than spacious area.

And when it comes to nursery painting ideas pictures and tips from those who have "been there and done that" are invaluable. The only saying, "A picture is worth a thousand words" is certainly applicable when a father or mother-to-be is searching for directions on how to paint a tree, a Dr. Seuss mural or other images that might be used to decorate the nursery walls.

Written instructions on how to use a projector to paint a mural are helpful but it would be impossible to beat the combination of detailed nursery pictures that are accompanied with a supply list AND instructions. For a beginner, this is the best way to proceed since most of the parents are more than happy to tell how many hours it took to paint the graphics and whether or not the wall painting ideas seen in the photos would be a project that is suitable for a beginner or one that requires advanced and equipment like projectors, etc.
