Maija's Room

So we painted Maija's room about a year ago, but sadly it took us so long to paint it, that I was too scared to actually damage the walls, and put holes so that we could put pictures up..Yes I know sad! But finally after a while, and some encouragement from Wyatt, I decided that I needed a project, and Maija's room needed some color, so I went all out, and painted a mural on one of her walls...Here is a picture of me working on the mural.



Maija has Grandma days every Friday, so thanks to grandma, I was able to dedicate a good 8 hours to this project. Maija loves puppies, and lately is really into Spot books, so I thought it would be cool to do a picture that, she is really into, so here is the final mural.




This type of project is actually not as hard as I thought it would be, and it was great fun just painting away, so if anyone is looking to do a mural, and will like some help painting, please let me know, I really did have lots of fun doing it! and I have some left over paint. I used sample cans from Rona, so the whole project was only about $38 total, and it really brighten up Maija's room.


Maija wakes up, and falls asleep lately saying "Puppa" or puppy. I'm so please with it, mostly because the person that it was intended for really likes it! I got the Maija stamp of approval!
For the other wall, we decided to keep within the same theme (art, painting), and I used photographs taken by Wyatt, and a painting done by our very own resident artist MAIJA!! I really like how it has all turned out.



So finally after a year, Maija's room is done! Thanks Wyatt for all your help, and encouragement! I was really freaked about drawing on our nice clean wall, but looking back, I'm glad I did it!
