PIRATE WALLPAPER
|
I can’t imagine that sharing a bedroom with the crew of the Black Pearl and the sight of the Jolly Roger pirate flag flying at full mast as being a particularly warm and fuzzy experience, but when it comes to the abundance of cool wall decorations, you won't hear me complaining. There are plenty of (and removable) pirate wallpapers and borders with designs of aged, antique pirate treasure maps and ships for me to use in decorating little baby buccaneer’s rooms.
There are pirate theme wall decorations for the most limited bedroom decorating budget. If you feel that a full wall of pirate theme wallpaper is just too expensive, a cheaper but slightly more time consuming method would be to stencil some grinning skulls still wearing their favorite pirate hats on the walls.
Another budget minded option would be to paint the walls a deep sea blue and use some decals, stickers and wallpaper cutouts to design your own deep-sea ship wreck. Lay out a painted underwater mural with a Davy Jones Locker theme the easy way using pre-cut tropical fish, coral and even a treasure chest full of gold doubloons. Pirate wallpaper makes it easy to get a great background for your baby's room or even older kids will enjoy the scenes straight out of the pages of their favorite pirate book or scenes from Peter Pan or Pirates of the Caribbean. Pirate murals are a real boost to a pirate theme room. If you used your imagination, pre-made pirate wallpaper murals are pretty versatile.
You can use them as a backdrop for Peter Pan decor (remember the peg leg pirate, Captain Hook?) or if you have a baby girl coming on the scene, it’s an easy decorative transition from baby boy buccaneer bedroom to Tinkerbell. It's not difficult to switch the focus of your pirate theme wallpaper from the wicked Captain Hook to the sweet fairy, Tinkerbell. If you need to make your pirate pirate wallpaper mural more feminine you can get more mileage out of your pirate pirate wall mural with the addition of some Tinkerbell fairy wallies. Here are some pirate motifs that you want to look for in any pirate theme wallpaper:
- Parrot stickers
- Skulls
- Pirate flags
- Black tricorn pirate hats
- Aged leather pirate treasure maps
- Treasure chests
Here's a unique pirate themed wall decorating idea that will add a personalized touch to your pirate bedding and decor. All kids like to see their own names on the walls of their bedroom. This little project with your baby's name drawn on it will fit perfectly with your pirate wallpaper murals.
All you need to draw this “antique scroll” is a large flat piece of brown paper. If you have some old grocery sacks on hand that you can undo at the seams and crumple to make it look old that will do. Use the following graphic as a guide to draw the design and then draw your child's name on it in old English script using a pencil until you get it right and then fill in the spaces with a black marker or paint.
