You are going to LOVE me LOL

Go buy any camo fabric you like, dip it in a 50% water, 50% liquid startch mixture. Wring it out and press it to your walls, it helps to wrap a CD/DVD case with a dry washcloth to smooth out the wrinkles. Walk away.
Once it is dry it will stay put - little people can pull it down. BUT it won't leave anything on your walls and you just re-dip, wring out and smooth back on the wall. It is an awesome, cheap way to decorate, especially if you are renting. Plus you can cut it to fit anywhere.

Stuff from the ceiling - I have no idea. LOL
 
You could look on eBay for military items to use.
 
Bass Pro Shop, Cabellas, Hobby Lobby

My MIL does this!!! We did a fabric in our daughter's nursery...frogs, ducks and daisies. It was very cute!!! We did fabric on the bottom 1/2 of the wall and then painted the top 1/2 with a matching color. When we were ready to change the decor it was very easy to take down and did not leave a mess! Great idea!!!

I loved doing this when we were on the road with my DH. Rentals always have white walls and I didn't want to paint and re-paint. Plus my three kids got to pick their favorite character from the quilt prints and I just put them up right next to their beds. I also cut out shapes and put them up all over the walls, the boys pulled them down a lot, but I just dipped them in water and stuck them back up - out of reach LOL. When we moved on I pealed everything off the walls - not a mark was left, then in the new house a simple dip and smooth and they felt right at home again. It was awesome!

My MIL has done "murals" like this. It is really cool! In her guest bedroom she did a beach scene on one wall. She had dolphins cut out, lighthouses, boats, etc. It is so easy...I can do it!!! This is really a great choice for decorating a room!
 
Army Surplus Stores! I think It would be cool to get that netting stuff that has the plastic camo print stuff woven into and arrange it across the ceiling or part of the ceiling and maybe even down a portion or 2 of wall. kinda give it the feild base kinda feel. I hope you know what netting stuff I'm talking about, I believe it is used to create to blend things together and create shade and what not. You see it all the time in movies around feild posts and stuff... did I make sense? Anyway, try your local Army surplus, they might spark some creative juices if you really want to go the military route with decorating it...
