Handmade Nursery Wall Art Part IV : Elephant

This is the final one in the series of Nursery Wall Arts with jungle theme. Its also my favorite.

Following are the supplies I used for this project:
- Foam Sheets( black, white,yellow,orange, green, red and blue)
- Card Stock or any thick paper : brown
(brown foam sheets are preferred but I did not have them)
- Wiggle eyes
- Craft knife
- Glue and Scissors
- Scrapbook Sheets for background



Sketch the pattern or take a printout if you have one available with you. A good place to get inspired for patterns is baby bedding collection. I sketched the elephant and cut out the face body and ears using black foam.

I used white foam for paws , tooth and inside ears. Then just glued the pieces together and added wiggle eyes to get the cutest elephant. You can stop here.



Or to have more fun, add water using blue foam sheets. I also added rocks on the river side using brown paper. A shining sun and chirping birds made the scenery complete.
I hope you liked the series on nursery decoration and would try these or get inspired to make something of your own. Happy decorating!

Handmade Nursery Wall Art Part III : Monkey having fun

Here is the third one in the series of nursery wall art with jungle theme for a baby boy.

Following are the supplies I used for this project:
- Foam Sheets( yellow, orange, green, red and blue)
- Card Stock or any thick paper : brown
(brown foam sheets are preferred but I did not have them)
- Wiggle eyes
- Craft knife
- Glue and Scissors
- Scrapbook Sheets for background


I sketched the pattern for a monkey hanging from a tree. You can use a ready made pattern if you have one. I did not have brown foam sheets so I used card stock for the body. For monkey's face and tummy I used orange foam. Add wiggle eyes and draw the nose and mouth using a permanent marker. The main piece of the project is ready.



I used the same background as in previous ones of the series. Refer my previous posts on instructions to make it. Added a tree and some flowers to complete the look. I used paper punch to punch out circles from foam sheets to make flowers. An adorable wall art is ready to bring smile on your baby's face and yours.

Handmade Nursery Wall Art Part-II : Lion

This is the second one in the series of Nursery Wall Decor with jungle theme. Now no jungle is complete without a cute lion :). Following are the supplies I used for this project:

- Foam Sheets( yellow, orange, green)
- Card Stock or any thick paper : brown
(brown foam sheets are preferred but I did not have them)
- Wiggle eyes
- Craft knife
- Glue and Scissors

I sketched the pattern for lion. Using craft knife I cut out lion's beard and paws from orange foam sheet and the body and face from yellow foam sheet. I glued the wiggle eyes and added the smile using a permanent marker. Then I glued the various cut outs together to make the lion. You can stop here and use it as is for decorating the nursery.


I added a tree using the brown card stock and cut out leaves from green foam sheet. Refer my previous post for making the background for the project.

Arrange the tree and lion on the background sheet. I also added some grass using green foam sheet to complete the look. The king of jungle never looked so adorable :).
