Your asking for a legal propblem frankly, anything that has to do with with disney, its character and its logos is owned by disney. Disney see is this way, if its your making money or advertising in our exspense we are loosing money. Let me give an example a student drew a disney character and put in in the school year book. The year book got into the attention of Daisney and they sued the school for copyrigth infringement. Disnwy is a advertising bloodhound who is looking at any possible "expense" they might encounter. So now you know.

You would not be braking any copright or trademark laws by placing Disney images on your walls. Its only an infringement if you market your business as a Disney place, or use any of their artwork in your company logo. People can buy Disney paint, borders, wall decals and more from Home Depot! Just because its a business, doesn't mean it can't be deocrated the same!

As others have suggested, there are absolutely criminal concerns. Disney is quite shielding of their image and any institutions with it. they have been time-honored to agressively sue daycare companies who've outside artwork of artwork or who're "Disney themed." The extra the subject will change into area of your merchandising the extra agressive they're going to be in pursuing you even on the fee of undesirable publicity. An indoor mural on a small unmarried wall, as one among many different artwork of artwork, gained't draw their ire in the journey that they hit upon it and, in spite of if it does, they're going to likely deliver criminal word and drop it in case you paint over it. in case you do one, Disney or the different style, do not promote or promote it or your organization with it and do not have it really seen from the line - that is a surefire thanks to go back across criminal problem.

Disney characters are copyrighted so you would have to seek permission to use them in your business.....You might be better off asking a local art student to come up with some characters unique for your business instead....
Good luck!

It should be alright to paint the characters on the wall as decoration as long as they are not used for advertisement or promotional purposes.
If you are very concerned, buy prints and hang them, then you have purchased the right to use them for your decoration.

you would have to get the rights if you are charging people to draw them but a lot of people do it anyway. but be careful because it is illegal. If you are doing it for free or as a gift they can't say anything about it.

I'd avoid it. If you're a day care or something small, you'd probably "get away with it". But in reality you'd still be breaking copyright law.

If the public is going to see it, I don't think so.
