I decided to paint another wall<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This wall in particular has gone through the following phases in the last 13 years:<\/p>\n

Off white paint (move in color)<\/p>\n

Terracotta paint (didn’t last long – it wasn’t a good phase)<\/p>\n

Black Chalkboard paint<\/p>\n

Corkboard tiles and wallpaper<\/p>\n

….and now a big floral mural…<\/p>\n

who knows what will be next!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I had paint left over from the breezeway<\/a>, so I just used it. The design is loosely based off a painting I did about 16 years ago that was inspired by an Amy Butler fabric. I initially planned on just doing the section by the stairs and leaving the wallpaper, but then I decided it was a little too busy for me. I sorta sketched the design, but really I just started painting. There were plenty of areas I went back to fix and change as I went.\"\"\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

My house is always changing. Here is a comparison of the chalkboard paint phase to the new mural.\"\"<\/p>\n

And this is what the area looked like when we moved in verses now.\"\"<\/p>\n

Paint is one of my favorite ways to change things up. I mean if I don’t like it – all I have to do is repaint, which I do often! Its probably good that we will be starting school back up in a month because who knows how many more murals I’d decide to paint otherwise!<\/p>\n
