The Best Wallpaper Picks for Your Aesthetic

Wallpaper is such a fun, easy way to add personality to any room of the home, including the nursery! Nestig offers plenty of prints to choose from, whether you’re looking to design a space that’s classic, eclectic, modern, or is another style entirely. Below, we’re rounding up our top wallpaper picks for a variety of different design aesthetics to help you get started planning out your little one’s space.

Grandmillennial

Grandmillennail style became big several years back and doesn’t appear to be going away anytime soon. If you’re a grandmillennial and are hoping to carry this look over into your little one’s nursery, we’re here to help. Stripes reign supreme in any grandmillennial’s world, so you definitely can’t go wrong with a classic like our Grove wallpaper. Plus, green is such a soothing color that is perfect for a nursery. 

Maybe you’re craving a print that resembles a traditional toile pattern, and in that case, be sure to take a peek at our Busy Brook wallpaper, which comes in a pink, a blue, and a neutral shade. You can’t go wrong with any of these picks, but note that grandmillennials do love their blue and white, so opting for our “Bluebell” shade is a surefire way to embrace this look in the nursery.

Eclectic

If you love eclectic design, you probably enjoy shopping at vintage stores and flea markets in search of one of a kind trinkets and furnishings that will add tons of personality to your home. The quirkier the item, the better, as long as it’s equal parts stylish. When designing a nursery, you’re drawn to whimsical accents that are funky yet still age appropriate for your little one. Our Flutter wallpaper is perfect for an eclectic space, given that it’s patterned and cheerful but doesn’t entirely overpower the walls—after all, you need to ensure there’s plenty of room to go big with art and accessories!

Contemporary

If you’re drawn to modern design elements, you may wish to continue the look in your little one’s space. Geometric shapes are always contemporary and cool, and our Samba wallpaper, Stepping Stone wallpaper, and Dash wallpaper are all great styles for a 21st century chic nursery. Pair these prints with soft, curvy furnishings, and you’re golden.

Natural

Many parents weave in some sort of nature motif into their little one’s nurseries, whether in the form of plants, animals, or a mix of both. Encourage your child to grow up and appreciate the natural world around them by embellishing your nursery walls with something like our Acorn wallpaper, our Hill Country wallpaper, or any other of our plant and animal themed prints (there are many from which to choose!).

Metropolitan

You’re a city slicker—or were in a former life—so obviously your little one must be surrounded by skyscrapers and all things metropolitan, right? Hang up our Block Party wall mural and reminisce on the days of living in a fourth floor walkup building right in the heart of the city. 

Keep in mind that because ordering wallpaper can be a bit daunting—you’re making somewhat of a commitment installing it, after all—we advise taking the time to order a few sample switches to your home so that you can admire various patterns in person before purchasing multiple roles. Note that samples take two weeks to ship out, while wallpaper is delivered within four weeks, so there’s no better time to get started planning out your nursery walls!
