    I'm not sure whether I'm posting in the right subforum.
    I live in US and looking for bright hanging murals for nursery.
    Its a temporary nursery, so I want to hang it and hence not want to paint or us wallpaper murals.
    I found a few in Roomstogokids, but they look empty without any animals on them :(. any suggestions?

    Hi Krutika

    If you want to use the same mural as in the Roomstogokids website, you can attach stuffed toys on the mural which will also give it a 3d effect. You can find appropriately sized animal stickers and attach them on the mural.

    You can check Homedepot for wall murals which you could stick on a cardboard sheet which can be attached to frame hanging hooks to be hung up. Make sure you get the right size to bear the weight.

    You can also check Ikea for children's room decor.

    Hi Srama

    Wow! You painted a whole mural! You must be quite artistic to have attempted such a task. Well done! Could you please post a picture so we can all appreciate it and applaud you for your work.

    I am sure Krutika will find your link to the stickers useful.

    Are you an Interior Designer as well ?

    Hi Srama

    I think you have the natural talent of a designer and should probably consider becoming one! Looking forward to see your mural.

    Krutika,

    thank you for your compliments. As far making money.....hmm not a bad idea but not easy either! I just do things around the house on a whim....nothing serious. Flattered you think I am an artist!
