If you’re wondering about the erratic posting schedule here at Green Your Decor since last week, there is an explanation. My family and I are moving into our own place after 2 long years, and I am buzzing with excitement! It’s an apartment and not a house, but I’m still incredibly giddy about the prospect of having a 6 new rooms to decorate. Of them, I think I’m most looking forward to doing my daughter’s room, because I know I can have fun with it. I’ve been looking for some wall art that I think suits her personality and taste, and these fabric wall stickers by Mae jumped out at me as soon as I saw them.
If you’re familiar with typical wall stickers, you’ll know that many of them are made of toxic vinyl. Not exactly something I want to hang in my toddler’s room. These stickers by Mae are made of fabric rather than vinyl. On top of that, they are designed to be can be reused indefinitely. They are also — mercifully — washable, so they truly are built to last. Can you imagine how fun these would be in a nursery?
I am particularly fond of the Forest Critters set, which includes a rabbit, owl, squirrel, mouse, 6 birds (yay!), a tree stump, greenery, florals, 5 hearts and a top hat. In other words, more than enough to make a unique, lasting wall art installation perfect for a 4-year-old who loves nature. I’d definitely pair this set with with the Build a Tree kit to make a cute forest scene. For the little man in your life, there are also boy-friendly options like the dinosaurs shown above.
Technically, we can paint the walls in the apartment, but we’d have to paint them back before we move out. We’re painting the living room and dining room, but we may leave the bedrooms alone. This would be a great way to dress up my daughter’s walls, even without paint.
Why It’s Green:
- Stickers made of fabric rather than vinyl (though I’m not sure what specific type of fabric)
- Washable and reusable (Can be removed and repositioned indefinitely)
Price: $42-115
NOTE: We are moving this weekend, starting tomorrow, so don’t be surprised if you don’t see another post until next week. I will post if time allows, but I can’t guarantee it. Thanks for reading!

Hey, now, what’s so boy-unfriendly about forest creatures?
Congrats on your new place! I can’t wait to see how you put everything together!!
Yay for new decorating spaces! These are adorable, and perfect for a kid’s room.
My daughter and I had the best time with these! We haven’t been able to find them again locally so I ran a search and your site came up. Grats on the new place and have fun with these stickers.
These are great! I’ve always been a huge fan of the Domestic.fr wall stickers-but never gone for them since they’re vinyl. Love to see what you do with them in your new place!
