My Murals

So here's what I like to do in my spare time. Good thing I don't have very much of it or our whole house might be painted in kids themes. This is a picture of the kid's bathroom that I just finished. You can kind of see in the picture, because of the mirror, how it goes all around the bathroom. It was so much fun to do. It only took a day and Dionys watched the kids for most of the day. We put hooks on the octopus arms and he holds all the towels. You can see him actually holding the towels in the mirror.

This is the boys room. Baseball everything! I even found a chest of drawers at Goodwill and painted it the same as the walls.

These pictures are of Isabel's room. Her room took about four hours. You can't tell from the picture but it goes all the way around the room with big flowers and butterflies. I just have fun seeing what happens when I start to make the finishing touches like th expressions on the faces of the fish in the bathroom. It's like they come to life. Plus it makes it even more worth it when the kids walk in and begin to play with the characters on the wall.

We just got Alexandria a new loft bed. It's a big hit with the kids. They love it. They spend most of the day on her bed playing. Now her room just needs some help. We're trying to figure out what kind of stuff we should paint on her walls. She's got all sorts of ideas. Castles, princesses, rainbows, unicorns, the list goes on and on. But I'm not that good. I'm waiting to come up with something simple.
