Decorating the walls of a nursery can be one of the most difficult parts of designing a space for your little one. Fortunately, ClaraLoo has developed an extensive line of plush wall decor that brings a sense of wonder and excitement to any room. These handmade animal wall mounts can be grouped together to create a cohesive space filled with coordinating textures and colors. Below are 10 nursery wall decor ideas to help you take your nursery to the next level.
Every piece featured in this guide is handmade in the USA by ClaraLoo using premium faux fur and crochet accents, designed to bring lasting quality into your home.
1. Start with a ClaraLoo Classic: The Brown Grizzly Bear Wall Mount
The Brown Grizzly Bear Wall Mount is a true ClaraLoo classic and the very first piece ever released within the Nursery Wall Decor collection. This handmade animal wall mount features brown faux fur with crochet ears and a crochet muzzle, and the contrast between the soft faux fur and the detailed crochet work is truly remarkable up close.
If you prefer a lighter palette, the Cappuccino Grizzly Bear Wall Mount offers the same handcrafted charm in a softer tone, making it equally beautiful for a woodland nursery theme.
Styling Tip: Hang the bear wall mount at adult eye level to create an instant focal point in your nursery wall decor.
2. Add Texture with the Deer Wall Mount
The Deer Wall Mount has become one of ClaraLoo's best sellers, known for its large antlers and handmade crochet ears. Measuring an impressive 24 inches tall, including the antlers, and 20 inches wide, this substantial wall mounted animal is sure to turn heads with its ultra soft cappuccino brown and white faux fur.
For a darker option, the Plush Deer Wall Mount features the same crochet detailing with ultra plush frosted faux fur, featuring a brown base with beige tips for added depth and dimension.
Styling Tip: Position the deer wall mount where its antlers have room to stand out, such as above a table or centered on a feature wall.
3. Anchor a Woodland Theme with the Moose Wall Mount
The Moose Wall Mount is often chosen as the focal point for anchoring a woodland themed nursery, thanks to its substantial size and impressive antlers measuring 30 inches wide and 20 inches tall. This handmade piece features charming crochet ears and ultra soft brown faux fur.
The Gray Moose Wall Mount offers the same antlers and crochet ears in a different faux fur color, giving you flexibility to match your existing nursery palette.
Styling Tip: Because of its size, the moose wall mount is sometimes used as a standalone statement piece rather than part of a tightly clustered gallery wall.
4. Build a Safari Foundation with the Lion Wall Mount
The Lion Wall Mount is often chosen as the foundational piece for building a safari themed nursery. This handmade treasure is made of soft tan faux fur surrounded by a luxurious plush mane, measuring 23 inches tall and 14 inches wide, making it a substantial piece of safari wall decor.
If you are drawn to a fantasy or magical nursery theme, the White Lion Wall Mount features plush white faux fur with a charming silver mane and the same crochet accents as the classic lion. You might also consider adding the Lioness Wall Mount so the king never has to rule alone.
Styling Tip: Hang the lion and lioness side by side to create a paired focal point, then build outward with additional safari animal wall mounts as your gallery grows.
5. Pair It with the Elephant Wall Mount
The Elephant Wall Mount is another safari favorite, known for its generous size measuring 22 inches tall and 18 inches wide. This handmade plush elephant is made of soft gray faux fur with a crochet snout and crochet tusks, adding a gentle gray contrast to the warmer tones of the lion and lioness.
Pairing the elephant with your lion pieces is one of the easiest ways to start building a coordinated safari gallery wall without needing to commit to a large collection right away.
Styling Tip: Place the elephant wall mount slightly lower or to the side of your lion pieces to create visual balance across the wall.
6. Bring Warmth with the Giraffe Wall Mount
The Giraffe Wall Mount is perfect for bringing bright, warm energy into a safari themed nursery. With its plush tan faux fur and crochet ears, spots, and horns, this handmade giraffe is a stunning addition to any nursery wall decor collection.
Its tall, slender silhouette also adds variety in shape and height when grouped with rounder wall mounts like the elephant or bear, giving your gallery wall a more dynamic, layered look.
Styling Tip: Use the giraffe's height to draw the eye upward, hanging it slightly higher than the surrounding pieces for a natural, organic arrangement.
7. Channel a Western Theme with the Bison Wall Mount
The Bison Wall Mount is the perfect choice for a farm or western themed nursery or big kid bedroom. This handmade plush bison features brown faux fur with crochet horns and ears, bringing rugged, cowboy inspired charm to any space.
It coordinates beautifully with other farm inspired pieces and stands out as a bold, unexpected addition for families who want something outside the traditional woodland or safari themes.
Styling Tip: Hang the bison wall mount as a solo statement piece above a bed or dresser in a western themed room for maximum visual impact.
8. Create a Farm Paradise with the Highland Cow Wall Mount
The Highland Cow Wall Mount will transform any nursery or bedroom into a farm animal paradise. Featuring plush brown faux fur with crochet ears and horns, this handmade highland cow is irresistibly adorable and full of personality.
Its shaggy texture and warm brown tones make it a natural pairing with the bison wall mount for families building out a full farm themed gallery wall.
Styling Tip: Group the highland cow with the bison wall mount and a few smaller farm accents to build a cohesive farm paradise across one wall.
9. Assemble a Dream Team of Woodland Animals
For a complete woodland gallery, assemble a dream team using the Brown Grizzly Bear Wall Mount, Deer Wall Mount, Moose Wall Mount, Fox Wall Mount, and Sloth Wall Mount. Pick and choose which animals you want to bring together for a fully customized woodland paradise that reflects your own nursery vision.
Mixing and matching from ClaraLoo's full range of plush wall mounts allows you to build a wall decor collection that feels personal rather than pre-packaged, with each piece adding its own texture and character.
Styling Tip: Arrange your woodland dream team in a loose, scattered cluster rather than a perfect row to give the wall a natural, collected feel.
10. Gather a Squad of Safari Animals
For a fuller safari adventure, gather a squad using the Lion Wall Mount, Lioness Wall Mount, Elephant Wall Mount, Giraffe Wall Mount, and Tiger Wall Mount. Pairing your favorite animals together creates the ultimate safari nursery walls, fully customized to your own preferences and color palette.
Building out a squad like this is one of the best ways to turn a single accent piece into a complete, story-rich gallery wall that grows along with your nursery vision.
Styling Tip: Start with one or two animals and add more over time. A safari squad does not need to be complete on day one to look intentional and beautiful.
