I used wallpaper boarder for the center line on the wall, cutting between the painted rope to make it look like it was woven into the net.

Teen Girls Butterfly and Dragonfly Room
This girls room was painted from the inspiration of her bedspread
and pillows.
I cut a simple stencil out to do the boarder. I marked the height with chalk using a level. |
Boy's Basketball Bedroom
This was one of my first murals not done for family or close friends.
I meet the mother of this young boy at her tanning salon her young teen was dealing with cancer. This was a perfect room to take on as a gift to the family. It was so fun to see his face when he returned from a week at a Riley camp.
The hardest part of this wall was dealing with the paint. If I had known then, what I know now, I would have sanded and used a primer. I had problems with the light blue sponge paint job showing through and sometimes the paint bubbling and pealing.

Safari Room
This room was painted for a pre-teen girl. She loved white tigers and she had a pet hedgehog she wanted painted somewhere in the room. I put him on the door ledge.
Getting this tall boy to turn the corner was difficult but I love how it turned out. |
The girls bed sat in front of this tree. I always try to finish all the wall so if they choose to move furniture it won't matter. |
This is a close up of the tiger and giraffe, I loved the yes.
And last but not least her hedge hog. |
