Cheerful Kids’ Room Gallery Walls That’ll Rival Adult Spaces

Playrooms are typically fussy and colourful, but sometimes going mellow evokes a certain magic, as seen in this serene corner showcasing solo animals from the wild. Tour the entire charming space from Love it or List it Vancouver here.

This nursery crafted by Sarah Richardson defies the rule of thumb that art should be hung on white walls. The results are dynamic and fun. To pull it off, the designer stuck to an orange and navy palette and layered in elements like bold drapes (with pom-poms!), blankets and line drawings in simple white frames. And that ceiling!

Fresh palm-print wallpaper is nice on its own, but it gets an added dose of delight with this art display by Minted, an online marketplace offering gorgeous works of art. Note how this grouping features a pair of rattan fans for fun – because when it comes to gallery walls, everything goes. You can find the pink abstract piece (pictured right) here.

Start your child’s appreciation for art early with a collection of standout pieces. An inspiring collage above a desk makes homework much more palatable. These limited-edition works are sold through Minted: find the fox print here, the solar system here and the train here.
