Re: Anyone ever have a mural painted in DC's room?

We moved in to a house that already had murals in the kids rooms. My older daughter has a jungle theme and its awesome. The ceiling and walls are all a part of it - sky with clouds above leading to the top of the walls, then grass and trees with animals all around. Theres a giraffe, elephant, gorilla, zebra... it was designed for a boy but it was just too cute not to reuse for my girl.

In my other daughter's room its just the ceiling -- clouds, ribbons, and cherubs. There is also a bathroom done with tree branches and birds, and the master bath has a wall that looks like an ocean view in Greece.

It was done professionally, I think they left the receipt for our reference if you want a name for elaborate (likely $$$) work.

Unless I was a really really good artist I'd stick with wallies stickers if I was going to do it myself.

Yup, we hired someone. He does artwork on the side and I asked him to do DS's room. He never did it b4 and was interested in trying so gave me a good price. I know he's gone up since then
