When I first looked at our home before it was ours I knew right away that the 470 square foot sun room would be our playroom. I got giddy thinking of toys having their designated space, kids quietly playing and of the huge blank canvas. I really didn’t know what I wanted to do in terms of a theme but I knew that it had to be gender neutral and something that could last well into their adolescence.
Over the years I have purchased wall decals from several companies. They all offer similar qualities except many do not hold up to their online descriptions or quality. When I was introduced to My Wonderful Walls from my friend Danielle’s blog, I knew right away that this company was a step ahead of it’s competitor’s.
While perusing the vast collection of repositional fabric wall sticker kits, full-room stencil kits and color-adjustable canvas art I decided that the fabric wall sticker kit would be best for our room. Next, I had to narrow down a design, I was tossing between the farm collection and the forest friends. The winning factor was having a personalized barn in our playroom.
Once we received our kit we got to prepping our room. First, we removed any debris from our walls, being that this is a sun room we took an extra measure to make sure our paint would cure correctly. If you won’t be needing a fresh coat of paint like us, you’ll just want to make sure that the walls are clean. Get your painting on, if you do it at 2 am like us, that’s entirely up to you!
Two quarts of paint later and by 4 am we had completed the painting process. We took a quick nap and woke-up to a gorgeously painted room. We had planned on waiting to place the decals up but the very excited two-year-old wanted to get started on the decorating fun. My Wonderful Walls does recommend waiting for the paint to cure for over a week but we have been experiencing really high temps so by the time the sun rose it was already in the 90’s and there weren’t any paint fumes lingering so we went ahead and got to decorating.

The decals are way easier than other decals on the market and I say that from experience. Not only are the colors and textures amazing they are so easy to get from paper to wall. Even if there’s a mistake like a stem folding over, or a toddler mishap, the decal easily removes from the wall and will adhere again. Another plus is that the decals adhered with ease to our highly textured walls. Again, other companies haven’t even adhered to my interior flat textured walls and our My Wonderful Walls decals stuck beautifully to our once exterior bumpy textured walls. Win!
We let Payton tell us where she would like her animals to go on her farm. Of course, the controller in me didn’t give in 100% but it made the design process of their room special and memorable. When anyone comes over she always tells them about her animals and what she helped place on the wall. When it was all said and done we had a completed room in under five hours! Check out this video to see how easy the decals go up!
