        How to Create a Wine Country Mural

        A mural can add a rich look to a wall. At first glance, this mural, complete with an ornate plaster border, looks like an expensive painting.
        • Time

          Day

        • Price Range

          $1 - $50

        • Difficulty

          Moderate

        In this Project you will:

        Step 1: Prepare the Wall

        Tape a border on the wall using painter's tape.

        Wet the wall with a damp cloth. This process stops the paint from drying too fast.

        Step 2: Sketch and Paint a Design on the Wall

        Sketch your design onto the wall using a pencil.

        Paint between the lines of your design, adding details where you can.

        Step 3: Attach a Frame of Plaster Moldings

        Once the mural is dry, attach a frame of plaster moldings using liquid nails and painter's tape.
