Whether you traveled the word or stayed close to home on your family vacation, make the memories last by creating a wall mural (figure A). - Start by using vacation pictures and postcards for inspiration.
- Keep your design simple. It can be one you draw yourself or images from your vacation.
- Using an overhead projector (figure B), cast your design onto the wall and outline the image with light pencil marks.
- Bring your mural to life by using acrylic hobby paints and latex interior paints.
- For more complicated designs, ask a local copy center to transfer your picture or design onto vinyl. Then, simply cut them out.
- To mount, roll on vinyl wallpaper adhesive. Burnish the vinyl to get out any air bubbles (figure C).
You'll have a fun mural and lasting memories! Web Extra: - Fix any wall imperfections with spackle or sandpaper before painting.
- Use polyurethane paint to seal the wall mural for long lasting wear.
