\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

My latest mural is coming along quickly.\u00a0 It is so much smaller than the other one…..I can do just a bit of work and it makes a difference (have I said that before?)!\u00a0 Did you ever want to paint a mural on one of your walls, but thought you couldn’t do it?\u00a0 Well, you should just go for it!\u00a0 I start out by thinking about which wall I would like to paint..maybe start off small..in a bathroom or somewhere like that.\u00a0 Then, I think about what I would like to paint.\u00a0 Usually, I find a picture in a children’s book or magazine….there are so many incredible images!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Then, I scan the image and load it onto my computer.\u00a0 I have a Panasonic LCD Projector that I use…but you don’t have to use one of those…you could use a simple projector..I have one of those too…a Design Master Projector, which works great.\u00a0 The only difference is that I can use the Panasonic LCD projector in the daytime..I don’t have to wait until it is dark outside, which I have to do with the Design Master projector.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Then, I set up the projector and my laptop and position the picture.\u00a0 And I draw out the design using a pencil…very lightly.\u00a0 This sets your mural up so that you are ready to paint.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Then you get started on the painting, which I think is the fun part…seeing the mural come to life!\u00a0 Sometimes your pencil lines disappear when you paint, but they are meant as guide lines only.\u00a0 When I am finished painting, I usually outline everything using black paint, or my new best friend….a Sharpie paint pen<\/a>!!\u00a0 These things are my new best friend!<\/p>\n

I’ll keep you posted with my progress on this mural!<\/p>\n

Also, don’t forget to enter my latest giveaway!!!!!!!!!!!!\u00a0 I’m giving away a $25.00 gift certificate to my Etsy shop<\/a>!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
