I need ideas...

My DH and I live in an apartment where we can't paint the walls.  The walls are painted an almost but not quite white, and the carpet is beige.  How can I bring in a lot of color into the nursery?  My colors are orange, yellow, and green.  We bought a bunch of wooden wall plaques in jungle animals to hang on the walls, but they seem lost in this vast expanse of white... any ideas?

    How about a nice colorful accent rug? Curtains?

    How about a quilt or tapestry?

    I'll be doing vinyl wall decals. There's a ton you can get from all over. Plus you can use wallpaper and borders. Just make sure the glue you use is removable. The pre-glued will usually come right off with a wet sponge.

    We are in an apartment as well.  Colors are white/grey/yellow. I am adding color with a yellow lamp, Curtains to match the bedding, and 2 yellow and grey paintings my sister is making. We got a white crib and have a white dresser. I like the idea of a mostly white nursery with a few pops of color.

    We used the FatHead wall stickers and sticker murals to cover a lot of the walls. They come off easy, don't leave any residue and you can re-use them if you were to move or anything. Also, in the past we've painted the walls anyways and just painted them back to the original color before we moved out.

    If you can't paint the walls, how about some colorful or textured wallpaper for the room? There are some awesome options out there to choose from. Your best bet is to conduct a Google search.
