Wall decals?

Has anyone gotten a wall decal for their nursery? I'm looking at getting one but I'm not sure where to get it from. I looked at the ones at Target but I didn't like any of them, and the ones on Amazon have such mixed reviews it's hard to know if they are good or not. Where else could I look?

Also, is it okay to put them over the crib? I'm worried about pieces peeling off from the wall and landing in the crib!

Re: Wall decals?

  • I had the exact same problem so we ended up making our own. And by "we," I mean my talented, artsy friend made them for me.

  • We bought ours at buy buy baby. It looks great and they're easy to take off and on the wall.
  • I don't have personal experience with using wall decals, but I do like them.  This website has some cute ones:

  • We got ours from Simply Said https://www.simplysaiddesigns.com/

    They have lots to choose from. Also, no matter where you get yours from, I really wouldn't be concerned about them peeling off the wall

    Yes,

  • We got ours from Etsy [I think the specific shop was Modern Walls] and I don't think it's going to peel off on it's own. I love it.

  • I don't know if you have a Joann Fabrics near you, but mine has a very large selection of wall decals. Also, maybe Michaels or AC Moore? (Don't know if they are near you either...)

  • I also ordered mine from Etsy from a shop called NurseryDecalsNMore and I am in love with them. They were totally customizable as far as color options. Mine are repositionable though so I tried to keep them out of little fingers reach.
  • I got mine from etsy.  There are millions of them there.  It's right behind our crib.

  • we got ours at etsy as well. then you can specify color etc :
  • We got ours on etsy too. I sent in a picture of our bedding and they were able to match the colors too. It was great and looks super cute.
  • we went the cheaper decals from babies r us. If our walls weren't slightly textured, I think they would have stuck great on their own, but because of our walls, we were having issues with them starting to fall off. After doing some searching, we found a e

  • Ours are from a Lambs and Ivy line at BRU. They stick really well, the walls are painted in a semi gloss and I think that helped them stick (to the smooth surface). We have a few close to the crib, I will take them down if I notice them peeling or curling
  • I don't have one for the nursery but have a verse in our living room. I got it at Hobby Lobby and have had it on our wall for almost 3 yrs...never had a problem with them falling off.
  • I ordered a beautiful decal off Etsy.  It's above the crib, and there is no way it's going to peel off unless someone does it on purpose.  

    It was a PITA to put up, though.   Much, much harder than the quotes I have in&n

    We got a set of forest animals from Amazon that were about 25 bucks, and they went on beautifully. I've had them up for about a month and have had no issues.

    I wanted a tree for above the crib, though. After seeing how expensive trees could

    We bought ours off etsy for my DS. He has one over his bed and is now 2 and it hasn't peeled off yet.
  • I have ordered several decals from www.tradingphrases.com and they always turn out really nice (and look painted on) they don't have that clear backing that so many of them do that looks really tacky. 

     I put them up in my daughter's nu
