This easy mural will provide interesting and educational ladybug wall decorations for you and your baby to enjoy while lounging in your nursery glider!

LADYBUG ART PRINTS and WALL LETTERS

If you are renting or if you like frequent baby nursery makeovers, you may want to hang your ladybug wall decorations on the nursery walls rather than painting them. Here are some ideas on more temporary ladybug wall decorations:

• Pick up some plain ceramic tiles, paint or stencil your child's name, initials or just pictures of ladybugs on them. Use black, white or red polka dot ribbons to hang the wall letters. Add some bows for an additional decorative touch. Buy a white ceramic table lamp and decorate the shade with the same ribbon and ladybug pictures that you used on the wall letters. This is a creative way to turn a plain lamp into custom nursery lighting. Stencil some ladybugs on the nursery furniture while you're at it!

• Hang a ladybug baby quilt on the wall
• Paint some ladybugs on wall shelves for a place to display collectibles
• Make arrangements of framed ladybug photos or art prints to compliment your ladybug decor
• Ladybug theme wall pegs are handy as well as pretty ladybug wall decorations

DON'T FORGET THE LADYBUG WINDOW TREATMENTS
Solid color curtains or valances are very inexpensive and can be embellished in clever ways to become part of your ladybug decorations. A pair of cheap curtains or a window topper turn into something unique and special when appliqued or quilted with ladybug cutouts. Take a simple ladybug pattern that you can download from one of the online quilting sites and cut your ladybugs out of fabric matching your ladybug nursery bedding set. Embroider a path connecting the motifs in your homemade, personalized ladybug design to tie all your designs together.

The natural red and black colors of ladybugs contrast in a unique way that work well with many nursery wall painting ideas. Many times we are tempted to be creative and come up with ideas for better color schemes like pink and brown ladybugs for example. However, it's very difficult to compete with the natural, gender neutral color combination of a red and black ladybug on a flawless white wall just as nature planned.
