Shelves and Mural for Child's Room

The gift to my latest nephew was a wall mural with custom made shelves. First, the wall was painted a pretty blue. Next, I brushed and spunged on this 7 foot tree with acrylic paints bought at Michael’s Crafts.

My husband—who is handy with a saw—cut scalloped shelves which I painting to match. We installed them after locating the wall studs. I added more whimsy by painting clouds, a kite, and a little plane sky-writing his name. The fun bugs over the changing station keep him occupied while he’s getting a new diaper.
