Therefore, the shops I share with you here have a common theme: online shopping, world wide shipping and liked by yours truly.
I'm pleased to share with you today a very charming shop called PaperBoy. They specialize in "children's wallpaper where boy's themes meet grown up style", which is something unique, as it's not so easy to find.
Have a look at some of my favourite designs:
 |
| "How it works" - Stone Wallpaper |
 |
| "Hand Made" Grey Wallpaper |
 |
| "Spitfires" Grey Brown Wallpaper |
 |
| "ere-be-dragons" Red Blue Wallpaper |
How sweet, right? I know they're geared towards boys but I would happily choose some of them for girl's rooms too, like "Hand Made" for example, or even "ere-be-dragons" for fierce girls! I love the "not-too-childish" look of them and the colours are really great. All PaperBoy wallpapers are designed and made in England. Their designs are also offered as fabrics.
Visit PaperBoy for more information.
I don't have children, but it seems lots of people around me are expecting, so my mind has been more open to children's interior design solutions lately. Really glad I found PaperBoy.
Xx. Holly.

Being an uncle to two nieces and two nephews, I always think of what it would be to design their rooms one day:-) Wallpaper would be absolutely a must - at least for a fun feature wall. I like these designs - the last one is like a fairytale all over your wall:-)

Awww. Now i want to decorate a child's room. Ursula, where are you?????
I'm a little upset that they call it paperboy. I agree that the designs are not 'girlish' but then there are, as you say, a lot of fierce and tomboyish girls around.
I wish they would market themselves as wallpaper for cool kids. Full stop. If I was a girl I would feel excluded:(
Great find, you online guru!!! Or better guruess:)

Awesome shop, Holly! Eeek, that dinosaur wallpaper is adorable, and so is the wallpaper with dragons. I always thought I would paint a mural or something on my (future) kids' walls, but if I'm feeling wallpaper, I'm doing something like this!

I know, where is Ursula, right? Maybe I'll tweet her about it later ;)
I know what you mean about the name's gender direction - but this store was set up because it is so hard to find cool wallpaper for boys. Wallpaper for kids can be too sweet, and too girly, generally speaking - now the boys are no longer left out.
Plus the name shouldn't stop anyone from buying them for girls - if so, their loss.
Oh gender. It's beautiful and ugly all at once.
Thanks for your comment Tina - always got me thinking Xx.

A mural by you would definitely be the best and most personal option - but I could definitely understand a tired mom (even if she's an artist) giving into the simplicity of wallpaper - especially when it's this cute, right!?

These are such great wallpapers geared toward children. I'm not a big fan of action hero or cartoon themed children's rooms, so these wallpapers are really appealing to me. Hello "How it Works" wallpaper. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for stopping by Theresa :) How it Works is quite amazing - I assume you looked at it up close. It's so creative!
Xx.
