Drum roll.....

So I began Emilia's playroom mural yesterday at about 2pm and 24 hours later.... finished! I had originally bought wall decals to put on the walls, but then decided I wanted a tree, so bought a 4 foot wall decal tree, but then went to Pottery Barn Kids yesterday to pick up a gift, and I found this butterfly chandelier that I had to get and then saw a bedspread with the cutest trees on it, and got a crazy idea to paint a tree and use different papers, material and tapestry for the leaves for textures.... then off to the craft store and the rest is history. (and yes I know that was a run on sentence :) ) My husband likes to, as he calls it, be realistic, but I call it raining on my parade... so I did not tell him of the new idea until some of the damage was already done! I can't wait until she sees it Christmas morning. Now all we have left to do is put the furniture together, hang the curtains and the butterfly chandelier... here are some pics of the walls.
