How to Make an Epic Collage Wall for Your Room

 

Collage Art Walls Are In and Kids and Teens And Loving the Creative Chaos!

Mom’s ~ If you’re cool with a little randomness and personality in your child’s space, poster-style walls are the vibe right now. Taping posters all over your wall is as popular as ever and loved by the new generations.

Kids love collage walls because they’re the ultimate way to make a space feel theirs. Whether it’s taping up posters of their favourite bands, creating a messy photo wall with snapshots of friends, or layering curated art prints they love, collage walls let kids show off their personality in a way that feels fun, relaxed, and completely unique. It’s like a scrapbook on the wall — changing and growing with them over time.

What makes collage walls especially appealing is that there are no rules. A little tape, a pile of prints, and their imagination are all they need. Kids get to be creative without needing to be “perfect” — they can mix photos with magazine clippings, string lights, vinyl decals, concert tickets, or even hand-drawn doodles. It becomes a space that tells their story, one piece at a time. Whether they’re into sports, pop stars, favourite quotes, or art, a collage wall is a cool and easy way for them to surround themselves with what they love most.

All the Fun Things to Add to a Collage Wall

1 - Start with a pre-curated collage set — you can find tons of great options on Etsy and Amazon! I personally offer fun, motivational sets in my Etsy shop and on my website, designed to make it easy for you to create an inspiring and stylish wall in no time.

2 - Next, personalize it by adding your own photos of friends and family.

3 - Find photos of your favourite celebrities, athletes, or anyone who inspires you.
Pro tip: When searching on Google, click on ‘Tools’ and use the ‘Size’ filter to select ‘Large’ images for better printing results.

4 - Vinyl decals are an affordable and fun way to add extra personality to your wall. You can easily find a wide variety of styles on Amazon and Etsy to match your vibe. Check out my Etsy store for simple designs and endless colours. My top sellers are the stars and the hearts.

5 - String lights or LED lights are always the perfect finishing touch, adding a cozy glow and a fun vibe to your collage wall. Lights can be found almost anywhere. Walmart, Amazon, Target and Dollarstores.

6 - Hang your wall! I’ve found that poster tape works best for my walls, but be sure to test a few options to see what works best for your space. Clear command hooks work great for string lights.
