Olivia's old nursery

Before Olivia was born, I painted a mural in her nursery in Texas in the theme of the cow jumping over the moon. We didn't find out she was a girl till after she was born so we were trying to be neutral with the nursery. Now that we are selling the house, we had to have a painter paint the room neutral like the rest of the house.

Here is the wall before as the painter began:

Here is the wall after the painter was done:

I like the before much better! You should go into business painting murals in kids' rooms!

Actually, I got a mural kit online, it was really easy! If you find a pattern or drawing, you just enlarge it and trace it on the wall using transfer paper.

I've read that people also use a projector to project the image on the wall and trace the outline.

That must have been sad for you. I think I may have cried.
