That being said, I decorated my daughter's room for her last summer and posted it here then I got the idea for one of her walls a few months later and posted it here. But there was something about the circles that wasn't enough. I wanted something around them but wasn't sure what. Then I was spring cleaning, well I guess summer cleaning (the kids are at their grandparents for the week) and I looked around her room and came up with something.
The toughest part was trying to get the petals to overlap without looking weird but I just started painting and went with it.
Here's a closer shot. I put the hot pink around the center to bring in the pink from the dresser.
Because of where this wall is I couldn't get a picture with the whole room but I tried!
So I do have one question. I painted the petals with two coats to try and leave it a natural, lighter shade of white. Should I add another coat and make it solid white or leave it like it is??
Such a great room. Hmmm.. I think I really like a little "bleed through" on those flower petals. They look more hand painted that way.. and not like a vinyl adhesive you see these days. The chalk paint is a great addition. You know you can always add more paint to the petals after you've lived with it for a while, but you can't take it back off. Just a thought. ;O)
