Art for Kids Room, by Graham H on Jun 24, 2013 17:44:40 GMT 1, I don't see the problem in getting a mural on the wall. When or if they don't like it anymore you can just paint over it. You will have the same problem with that wallpaper.
My thoughts exactly.. dont we all sometimes change our mind with the pics we buy in less time than a child can change their mind??

Alternatively, paint a wall with chalk board paint and let them loose with chalks. Means they can wipe the wall off and start afresh whenever they like.

No chance of you altering them and making your own "Save or Delete"?

Art for Kids Room, by mrblast on Oct 20, 2013 7:47:17 GMT 1, We have a 4 1/2 month old Daughter and we are thinking about buying some art for her room now she has finally moved out of our room (!). I do have a few pieces I could frame up and put into her room (John Doe, Lora Zombie, etc) but I was thinking what recommendations do people have for child-friendly art? The first idea that sprang to mind to mind were the Murakami flower prints but they are probably a little more than we want to pay right now.
I don't recall seeing a similar thread on here previously but if there is and someone would be kind enough to link to it then I'm happy to shut this one down.
Thanks,
B

Our oldest loves the David Choe citygirl heads as there is alot to see and notice, but know there are alot of Choe's pieces that are not overly suitable for kids, so be carefull. As you say the murakami flowers and DOBs, TheLondonPolice pieces would also be very child friendly / cartoonish.

***************************
Otherwise, you can't go wrong with John Burgerman's doodles. His print are at 15 GBP each, sadly no girl thema, but you can find a nice "picnic" & "music" giclee print on his shop - burgerplex.com/index.php?route=product/category&path=37
And at 4 yo, kids really enjoyed drawing and coloring so a coloring wallpaper by Burgerman would be great fun (35 GBP - 1000 x 52cm / 394 x 20.5" roll with black print, artwork repeats every 52cm / 20.5")
***********************************************
Last recommendation, very girly this time, a small print by Camilla d'Errico at 20 USD not signed (27 USD signed)... Cheap cheap !! store.camilladerrico.com/prints.html
  
***************************
Have fun and don't forget, you are actually buy something for the kid not for your eyes. Think like a child, not like an adult
