boho rainbow wall decals for bedroom

We moved the girls into a shared bedroom right before Sloane turned one and have slowly been putting their room together. I knew I wanted an earthy, boho feel for their bedroom. I found this art work at Hobby Lobby and fell in love with the colors. I even used them as inspiration for Sloane’s birthday party decor, so I could reuse some of it in their bedroom after. I really wanted to add boho rainbows to one of their walls. I decided I wanted to try making my own removable vinyl decals with my Cricut Maker. Using removable vinyl made this Cricut project SO easy! And I love that I had full control over the look, size, and colors of the rainbows. Keep on reading for my step-by-step guide to creating boho rainbow wall decals for a bedroom.

The girls have dark gray walls in their room, so I started by painting the “decal wall” a super light grey, almost white, color so the vinyl decals would really pop. I uploaded a picture of their wall into Canva and used a rainbow sticker to play around until I found a layout I liked.

Supplies:

  • Cricut Maker: I used the Maker machine to make the majority of the decals 10″ x 10.” There are also some smaller decals on the wall (next to and under the window) that are roughly 8″ x 8″.
  • Removable Vinyl: I chose to use removable vinyl so I could easily move the pieces if needed. Cricut’s removable vinyl can be removed without damage for up to two years. (Their permanent vinyl lasts up to three years.) I will say I have tried other removable vinyl and it removed tiny bits of paint from the wall behind it. The Cricut vinyl did not.
  • Transfer Tape
  • Light Grip Mat
  • Scraper & Spatula

Instructions:

  • Find your rainbow and put it into Design Space. I used one that I found for free in Canva. Here is a link to my Cricut Design Space project if you like this exact rainbow.
  • Cut. I found it easiest to cut an entire rainbow at a time. I then used my tool to remove one piece of rainbow from the backing and placed it face-down onto the transfer tape. I laid out multiple pieces of transfer tape so I could create 3 rainbows at a time. Once I did a few, I did start laying them down on the backing from my first few rainbows, then used the transfer tape like you normally would.
  • Place transfer tape rainbows on wall. I found it easiest to do 3-4 rainbows at a time. I could lightly stick the transfer tape to the wall, then I could back up to see how it looked. With the removable vinyl, it was very easy to peel a rainbow from the wall to move it if I decided I wasn’t centered, or wanted a different color there, etc.

Would you be willing to try boho rainbow wall decals for a bedroom?

I’ll admit I was a bit intimated since it’s an entire wall… but it was so much easier than I imagined. Knowing the removable vinyl is so easy to remove and move (if needed) made it a perfect project for a beginner crafter like myself.

The perfect way to spend a few hours on a 95° day! Was just scrolling through stories, saw someone say it had a “lesbian narrative” and laughed out loud. Have you seen it? I apparently missed all of the controversy surrounding the movie, which means I’ve done a great job of filtering out my feed of people who don’t approve of GaYnEsS. 👋🏻👋🏻

Happy Father’s Day JP! He’s the one who supports our family, the doer of the dishes, the planner of the trips, the parent who makes sure the kids brush their teeth, and the one who will happily jumps into the cold, highly-chlorinated water of hotel pools to make these three happy. I had no idea how challenging parenthood would be. I am so lucky I chose a partner who is so positive and outgoing (the opposite of me 🫠) to raise a family with. ❤️
