Painting Words on Nursery Wall
Anyone ever done it? I want to paint this little saying that DH & I love on the wall of her nursery, it's 3 words... I want it in pretty script, with maybe some small flowers/flourishes around it, but relatively basic. I wouldn't know how to freehand it, and stencils would be tough b/c I want it in pretty script. Any ideas?
BTW: I'm not artistic!

Re: Painting Words on Nursery Wall
I would go with a stencil
or
make the wording in the computer, print it to the scale you want it and copy to a "blank" stencil that you can cut yourself.

They look really cool...can you tell me how they work? They make you the stencil, then you stencil them on? Why are they one-time-use only, just out of curiousity (not that I'd need them more than once)? And how fast did they come once you placed your order?

See, if I remember correctly, you're very crafty! I, on the other hand, am a nightmare!!!!! If I tried to cut my own stencil, it would be horrible I'm sure...

I would still try to find one already made.

Re: Painting Words on Nursery Wall
wallwords are awesome, they are decals that look like paint once you put them up. they come sort of like a temp. tatoo, you unroll the paper stick it to the wall, and rub the back and they adhere. They come with a guarantee so if you mess it up, you can rip it down and send it back for free, i highly recommend tham....

Re: Painting Words on Nursery Wall
you could google search for wall decals or look on craigslist for someone that can paint them.
I'm thinking of doing some words on DD accent wall in her big girl room
