Here is our bedroom. Pretty plain and boring. The walls were some sort of dusty peach. Ick!
The ceilings were so well done. I hate popcorn ceilings but that's not the worst part.
The worst part was that they didn't even paint the ceiling before they pop-corned it so the ceiling had awful lines.
Our beautiful ceiling once we primed, painted and added our new fancy light.
Here is the old and new color change. I wanted our room to be an escape, a warm escape. That's why we went with the warm tones.
To add a bit of fancy we got creative and made a feature wall behind our bed.
I printed off a shape and traced it onto cardboard. To get the shape big enough I opened the image in paint and used the option to print it 2:2. Similar to printing a tiled version, just depends on the programs that you have.
To ensure our pattern stayed even we taped a level onto our stencil before beginning.
Here is our pattern traced onto the wall.
All we did was paint over top of the lines that we traced with a fine tipped paint brush.
Gorgeous!!! I absolutely love how this wall looks.
Here is the wall completed.
I got the stencil from this blog. Check it out if you are interested in giving it a try yourself! http://www.whiletheysnooze.blogspot.ca/2012/07/diy-moroccan-style-wall-stencil.html?m=1
