Painting Drew's Wall

This weekend Drew went to my parents house so I decided to paint a wall in his room.  While I was painting the nursery Drew kept telling me his room was next.  I had an idea but I knew it would take a bit.


Here is my inspiration.  A nightlight from Target.

Here is the completed Wall.

Me being a 'perfectionist' of sorts I see some things I would like to still work on/fix but only I see them I know so I will leave it alone...maybe..... :)  I have not really painted like this since college (don't tell my professor please). So...10 years maybe? It was scary and fun all at the same time.  I'm glad to see my art degree is coming in useful.

We are still trying to decide if we want to paint the other walls or leave them white.  I'm thinking paint, but Brad says leave white.  We will leave it like this for a bit and think on it I'm sure.

Drew LOVES it.  He told me it was his favorite.  I heart him. =0)  If you come and visit I'm sure he will show you his wall.

In our house we also have a Flex Space.  We turned this into a little play area with a TV for movies.  Brad got this room and the hallway painted this weekend as well.  I LOVE Color on the walls!!  I can't wait to start putting pictures and sayings on the walls now that they are painted.  Eek!

Anyone have any ideas on what to call this room or a clever title I can put on the wall?

Looks great. You both got very ambitious and got things done. Nice job. Will be thinking of something for the wall. Drew might have a suggestion or two. Sometimes these kids come up with some pretty simple but cute ideas.

I think tan walls would be nice for the 3 in Drew's room
