Baby Room Gloat

[Dan Mages]

Wife and I found a great paint by number mural system for the baby's room. It comes on long strips of plotter paper and carbon paper. You tape it to the wall, trace the pattern and then fill it in with the recommended colours. It took about 3 weeks, but I think it turned out pretty good. I might touch it up a bit, but I am happy with the results. If I did it again, I would not use craft paint. I would have bought the tintable samplers at the Borg. Craft paint required way too many coats.

That is so cute, Dan! This is a room the baby can grow with for several years.

I forgot to mention the clouds! I sponged clouds on the ceiling for the baby to enjoy while laying in the crib.

Cute. You can also use a computer projector to display the image on the wall and just trace the outlines freehand.
