PICS - For those of you interested in painting murals in the nursery..

I did a 360 degree mural, ceiling included...
I did a farm theme... actually its online somewhere Ill try to find the link... I just wanted to let you know how to do it if interested!

First pic out pictures online.. things you want to paint on the wall

Take it to the library and they can put it on that clear paper for an overhead projector

Borrow an overhead from school, library or somewhere

Use chalk and outline the walls

Piant it in :)

Its time consuming but SO worth it!!

If you have any questions, dont hesitate to ask :)

PICS CONTINUED BELOW!

This might be a stupid question, but what type of paint did you use?

Re: PICS - For those of you interested in painting murals in the nursery..

Oh goodness... I dont remember. That was the HARDEST part... picking out the blue for the sky and the green for the grass.. I wanted it like a cartoon, but didnt know what it would really look like until it was on the walls..

I can tell you I did 2 coats of white primer (from lowes)
Then 2 coats of blue (from lowes)
Then 2 coasts of green (from lowes)
Then I chealked the outlines
Then I went to Michaels and bought those little tubes for everything else.

I dont know the types.. I had sales people help me. Im not good with that. I do know I asked for the washable LOL

Re: PICS - For those of you interested in painting murals in the nursery..

Thank you thank you.. Just remember to use chalk lightly... It can be a pain to get off if paint mixes with it...
