Whether you're decorating a nursery or upgrading to a big kid room, there's one theme that always inspires little ones to dream big. Outer space! From comets to rocketships, moon landings to spacewalks, what lies beyond our planet has been a source of wonder since the beginning of time. And with exciting events lined up for 2021 like SpaceX flights and a new Mars rover landing, budding astronauts have a lot to look forward to.
It also makes for some incredibly cool decor. Move over woodland creatures and pastel florals. The galaxy is infinite—and so are the space-themed accents that are sure to delight kids and parents alike.
