    removable wall stickers

    We rent. I'd like to make the nursery a little more nursery like.

    I've heard that there are removable wall stickers that don't ruin the paint. Are they suitable for rentals? And do they really not ruin the paint? We're not allowed to put any picture hooks or anything up. But if the removable wall stickers really don't damage the paint, I'd like some of them...

    And where would I get them from?

    Thanks !

    I got mine for ds'sroom from Kids Central. I have recently peeled them off his old room walls to relocate to his new room and they didnt leave a mark. Id just test one first in an inconspicuous (sp) place if you are worried.

    Hey there,

    Do you have an Adairs near you? My local Adairs has some removable wall stickers on sale ATM! I'm sure they'd be ok for rentals!

    Removeable wall stickers are excellent. It's all I have on my kids walls. They also do not take any paint off. It's a great way of decorating as kids change their minds so often.
    You can get them from places like Baby Bunting, Ebay. If you google removeable wall decals, you will get heaps of places that sell them.
    I just got some for DD from an online shop called Giggle Smile Designs. Much cheaper than at a store.
    Bambini Pronto is an online Baby and Maternity store and they have a beautiful range of everthing.
    If you can't put picture hooks up, use the command adhesive hooks. They work well and again, don't leave marks on walls.

    I love the removable wall stickers for the look they create BUT in two separate houses we have had them and both times they have removed the paint. Different brands of stickers too. They have also done the same to my SIL's house.

    So I would still beware of them in your situation.
