I’m finally done with the main wall mural for the Play Studio, and feel like showing off! Remember my inspiration piece?

I simplified the design and shopped around online for birch tree wall decals. I found my final choice on Etsy, which came with a hundred butterflies to flit and flutter around the walls. The addition of butterflies was a happy discovery, because I really wanted to keep it fun and light, as fitting for a play room.
Now, I generally don’t do decorative painting myself, but I had a vision for this project that I wasn’t totally comfortable with delegating. I’ve never gotten this cozy with wall decals before, but I feel like an expert now! I will also tell you, it takes a lot longer to get those puppies up there than you might think. The painting and wall decals took about 10 hours all together.
Now that I’ve got the hang of it, I’ll be much more comfortable spec’ing large scale wall decals in my projects. Just in case I find myself putting them up again 🙂
The decal set is from the Etsy shop A Baby Wall, and you can choose from over a dozen colors for the trees, branches, and butterflies. I had a fabulous experience ordering from her, and will probably do so again.
Oh yeah, and here’s how the climbing wall turned out:
I love it all! What do you think?
I love this whole project….the practical side and the whimsy! Great job, cheryl. Kathy
