Any tips on where to buy good wall decorations for a peds office?

We have an ugly wall that needs some covering! I thought it would be neat to make it our measurement wall (height and weight). I've already spent a couple of hours on line trying to find ideas for dressing up the wall.

I was thinking a big giraffe poster and maybe some monkeys, or something along those lines. I can't just get regular posters, they're way too small.

There have to be ideas out there...

Call your local high school art department and ask if they have any talented kids who'd like to paint a mural in your office for extra credit. For a few bucks in supplies, you could have a masterpiece! My daughter would have jumped at the chance and would have done it on her own time with her own paint. She painted one wall of her brother's room with Disney and Pixar characters... it was beautiful. Then we sold the house to someone with no kids... sniff.

I work in a peds area.We put up the artwork that the kids have created.It looks really pretty and from time to time we change it with new art work that theyve created.

On our peds ward all of the walls are have murals painted on them by our Dept Head's daugther-in-law. Everyone comments on how neat the place looks. So if you can find some talented artist...it would great for your office.
