Why Large Stickers Are Perfect for Tall Units in Your Child's Room

Looking for large size stickers for tall units in the UK? Nursery Stickers is built for exactly this. The Check Stickers for IKEA Trofast Drawers are printed in the UK, sized to match the side-facing vertical panels of Trofast units, and peel away cleanly when you're ready for a change.

Key Takeaways

  • Nursery Stickers offers large size stickers specifically designed for tall units in the UK.
  • Our Check Stickers are perfectly sized for the side-facing vertical panels of IKEA Trofast units.
  • All Nursery Stickers products, including these large stickers, are printed locally in the UK.
  • These stickers peel away cleanly, making it simple to update your child's space as their tastes change.

Understanding Tall Units: Storage and Drawer Systems

Tall furniture dominates children's rooms. Drawer units like the IKEA Trofast take up serious wall space, yet most parents leave them completely plain. That blank surface is a missed opportunity -- a chance to add personality and colour to a room your little one actually lives in.

Stickers designed for tall units sit flush against flat surfaces, follow the shape of side-facing vertical panels, and create a finished look in minutes rather than over a weekend.

The Magic of Large Stickers for Nursery Transformations

A check pattern across a Trofast unit instantly makes flat-pack furniture feel considered and personal. You're not repainting or replacing anything -- you're adding a layer of character that suits your child right now, with the freedom to change it when tastes shift. That flexibility is something wallpaper and paint simply can't offer.

Rental-Safe and Kid-Friendly Benefits

Renting? No problem. Our stickers are made from a premium removable fabric-vinyl mix that leaves zero residue on furniture surfaces. No scrubbing, no sticky patches, and no awkward conversations with your landlord. They're also completely non-toxic, so they're safe around curious little hands.

Is This Approach Right for You?

Pros

  • No painting, drilling, or landlord permission needed
  • Transforms furniture in under thirty minutes
  • Peels away cleanly when your child's tastes change
  • Affordable compared with new furniture or professional decorating
  • Personalises flat-pack pieces without permanent commitment

Cons

  • Works best on smooth, clean surfaces
  • Very textured or matte furniture finishes may reduce adhesion
  • Oversized panels may need two people for straight alignment

A specialist children's sticker brand is usually a better choice than a generic marketplace. You get designs scaled to fit children's furniture -- not just cropped wall art that may not align with your panels at all.

Worth knowing: Stickers designed specifically for furniture like the IKEA Trofast are sized to match the side-facing vertical panels precisely. Generic stickers are rarely cut to furniture dimensions, so always check sizing before ordering.

Top Places to Find Large Size Stickers for Tall Units in the UK

UK Online Specialists for Extra-Large Nursery Designs

Specialist children's décor brands are the strongest starting point. Unlike general marketplaces, they size designs around real children's furniture dimensions. Nursery Stickers, for example, offers the Check Stickers for IKEA Trofast Drawers, cut precisely to fit the side-facing vertical panels of Trofast units -- no guesswork, no trimming.

Specialist UK brands also tend to print locally, which means faster delivery and better quality control than many overseas alternatives.

Custom Options That Fit Your Exact Measurements

If your tall unit falls outside standard sizing, some UK suppliers offer made-to-measure sticker panels. You supply the dimensions, and they cut accordingly -- useful for bespoke storage where off-the-shelf options won't quite align.

For IKEA Trofast owners, custom sizing is rarely needed. The Check Stickers are already matched to those side-facing vertical panels, which saves measuring and ordering back-and-forth.

High Street and Marketplace Finds

High street homeware shops occasionally stock large decorative stickers, though children's furniture-specific designs are rare. Marketplace platforms carry a wide range, but sizing inconsistency is common and UK printing is far from guaranteed. For a unit like the Trofast, a dedicated nursery sticker brand will give you a more precise, reliable result every time.

Sizing Guide: Matching Stickers to Your Tall Furniture

How to Measure Tall Units for a Perfect Fit

Measure each side-facing vertical panel individually -- width first, then height. Even within the same unit, panels can vary slightly between frame configurations. Write your measurements down before ordering, and always compare them against the product dimensions listed on the retailer's page.

Nursery Stickers' Range for Children's Rooms

Our IKEA hack furniture sticker collection is designed around real furniture dimensions. The check pattern works beautifully across a Trofast unit's side-facing vertical panels, giving the whole unit a co-ordinated look without any cutting or trimming on your part.

Worth knowing: Always measure your specific Trofast configuration before ordering. Trofast units come in different frame sizes, so side-facing panel dimensions can differ between set-ups.

How to Apply and Remove Large Stickers Without a Fuss

Step-by-Step Application on Tall Units

Clean the panel surface with a dry cloth to remove dust. Peel a small section of backing, align the sticker with the top edge, then slowly smooth downwards using a flat card or your palm. Work out any air bubbles as you go. For larger panels, a second pair of hands makes alignment much easier.

Safe Removal Tips for Changing Tastes

When your child is ready for a new look, peel from one corner slowly and at a low angle. No residue, no sticky patches -- the panel stays clean and ready for whatever comes next.

Parent Stories: Real Results from Nursery Rooms

One parent told us she transformed her daughter's Trofast unit during nap time. Twenty minutes, no mess, and the check pattern made the whole storage corner feel intentional rather than thrown together. That's exactly the kind of quick, confident decorating that turns a plain flat-pack unit into something you're actually proud of.

Nursery Themes for Tall Units: Checks and Beyond

A classic check pattern suits everything from Scandi-inspired nurseries to colourful playrooms. It's timeless enough to grow with your child and bold enough to make flat-pack furniture feel genuinely stylish. Starting with a pattern that works across multiple room styles gives you flexibility over the long term -- and means you won't be desperate to change it the moment your child moves on from their current obsession.

Cost Breakdown and Budget-Friendly Options

Refreshing a Trofast unit with stickers costs a fraction of buying new furniture or hiring a decorator. Many parents complete a full set for under £50. Compare that with a tin of paint, brushes, and a weekend of drying time -- and the value speaks for itself.
