A wave mural in a kids bedroom

An ocean themed kids bedroom

Mural wall painted in Resene SpaceCote Low Sheen in Resene Morning Glory (top), Resene Sea Fog (middle) and Resene Dauntless (bottom). To create the mural paint a 30cm strip of Resene Sea Fog through the mid section of the wall. Cut a wave symmetrical curved semicircle from a piece of cardboard to use as a stencil. Once the paint is dry, draw the bottom line of waves with your stencil. Paint Resene Dauntless on the underside of this line and fill in to the floor with a roller. Repeat this process on top by drawing another stencilled wave line. Paint the upperside of this line with Resene Morning Glory and then roll the remainder of the wall upward.  Bedding: Credits listed above.  Tongue and groove wall painted in Resene Sea Fog.
