Wall art

I'd really love to do this wall art in Cutter's room. Jonathan says I can if I am able to paint that well...not sure I'm able to paint this well, but maybe I can find cool stencils like this some where in the world.

Anyone have any stencil or free hand painting tips for kids rooms?

Oh wow, that's super cute! I love it! No ideas on the stencils. Just here to offer my pathetic support of enthusiasm! ;D

There might be something similar at the above link. I didn't see the exact one. But I bet you'd paint it great!

Why not just buy those decals from Pottery Barn?? It's a small room so you don't want too much going on.

I painted on my kitchen wall. I photocopied a picture I liked and then made a transparency. Then I used an overhead projector and drew the basics on the wall. Then I painted it using acrylic paints. You can ask Kristen what she thought of it. It wasn't her style, but it was fun thing to do and turned out pretty good. Jeanne

Oh, and I painted over it when we sold our house. Jeanne

that's right mom you did some super cool wall paintings in our rooms as a kid! I think I may try it.

Jeanne thank you for the projector tip! I think I'm gonna try something like that!
