A fun, flexible baby room theme is to decorate it in whimsical patterns. Try painting butter yellow or grass green stripes on walls. Then hang bold graphic pictures of cats and dogs in bright red or blue frames on walls.

Use same graphic style to paint a toy chest using stencils, or apply stickers against a colorful painted background.

Another fun baby room theme is a design around theme of Sweet Dreams. Use bright colors such as watermelon pink and lime green on accessory pieces, and then choose white for walls, ceiling, and lamps.

Use bright, bold colors in places that will capture your baby's attention, and mix them with different fabrics and patterns. Try fabrics such as grape terry cloth, plaids, polka dots, and candy cane stripes. Paint walls a creamy vanilla to keep room centered and calm.

You might wallpaper one entire wall with a bold print of watermelon slices. Then hang a diaphanous sheer white-on-white polka dot draping from ceiling that flows around crib. Paint or paper a small square above crib with same watermelon slice print.

When your baby looks up, he or she will certainly fall asleep and have sweet dreams!

A good theme for decorating a baby nursery is to design it around a Playhouse theme. This baby room theme works well for both boys and girls, and also gives them a great place to play as they grow older. Use a border paper with houses or apartment buildings printed on it.

The truth is, however, that this type of mural is rather easy to construct as long as you have tools to do it.

The easiest way to create a jungle mural is to transfer a desired jungle scene, animal or image to transparency film, and then use an overhead projector to display image on wall, which you can then trace out and begin painting.

You will find that transparency film can be purchased from any store that sells computer accessories, business or school items. As for projector, you may be fortunate enough to be able to borrow one from your work place, or your child’s school.

If that is not an option, you can always rent one, or purchase one from a local business store or online.

The best place to look for images for your jungle mural is on internet, simply because your child will be given many more options to choose from, as well as images can be easily printed off on transparency film. When looking for images, a good rule of thumb, if you are artistically challenged, is to make sure that you don’t select images with too much detail.

Try to select those that are two-dimensional. In addition to using transparencies, you can also use stencils for smaller animals such as for any birds that may be in sky or sitting on trees. Stencils can be purchased in craft stores.
