The Deal: Muralette wall decals for kids

I shudder now, remembering the Laura Ashley wallpaper border I struggled to hang in my daughter’s nursery more than a decade ago. My husband could not understand why I would not want to use a level and caulking to make everything perfectly straight.

It all seems so unnecessary now (decorating fight included) when I look at all the wonderful peel-and-stick wall decals on the market for kids’ rooms. Muralette is the latest in this genre, offering four sets of striking wall decals: Fishies, Garden of Posies, Branch and Birds and Polka. Simply cut out the shapes, arrange them on the wall, refrigerator or dresser using tape, then peel off the back and adhere them in place. (The website shows some unexpected installations.)

The sets are normally $85, but Muralette is offering 20% off for first-time customers.
