Step 1- -We suggest you paint the ceiling also.If you are going to design a theme room for your child you might as well go all out.By painting the ceiling it makes it feel like the sky and the theme is completely carried throughout the whole room.It gives the room a cozy and welcoming feeling.
Step 2- -Approximately 1/2 way up walldraw a level line using chalk & a level or measure 1/2 way up wall and mark all the way across.
-2' above the first chalk line, make another level chalk line.
Step 3- -Using either a foam or angeled paint brush a straight line of the "Sandy Colored Paint" and fill in using a roller.
Step 4- -Paint the area above the sand a wonderful teal ocean blue.
Step 5- -Using chalk draw a 12' x 24" trapazoid shape using a ruler. -Water down bright yellow craft paint about 1/3 water to 2/3 paint. -Using a bristle brush paint from right to left which will simualte ocean waves paint in trapazoid shape. Don't fill it in completely. Try and paint loosely. -This will make the simmering sunshine over the water. -You will be placing a 12" wall sticker sun at the top of simmer.
Step 6- AFTER PAINT HAS DRIES AT LEAST 1 WEEK ! -You must give the paint time to fully cure. The painted wall may feel dry to the touch, however moisture from the paint is still evaporating from the paint & it interacts with the mural/wall stickers/ mural piece's adhesive and they will not stick until the paint is full cured. If you should happen to adhere the mural/ wall stickers/ mural piece's and the y should become lose or fall off.It is fine. Just place them back onto the backing and wait a week & reapply. -Using the above photo & suggested layout as a guide start to apply wall stickers / mural pieces to your child's walls. -Start with the background pieces because the front one's will be placed on top.
