So I had a lot of people telling me they didn't quite get what the last nursery pictures were. The blue blobs on the wall really didn't do it justice! It was hard to envision what the trees were going to look like against the coral background.
Well patience is not my strong suit when I want to know how something is going to turn out….. so I took it upon myself to make the trees appear!
I was supposed to wait until Curtis got home so he could help and be the one reaching to the ceiling, but I told myself I would try one just to see how difficult it would be to make it happen and how much patience we were going to need to tackle this together HAHA!
The first one went on really easily! There was quite a bit of extra length to the tree so it didn't need to be exact on the wall. It peeled nicely and with a putty scraper I was able to smooth out all of the bumps easily. Well because that one went on so easily and looked AWESOME… why shouldn't I just keep going?? Well one turned into two, turned into three, turned into all 6!!! **insert sheepish face here**
I was so excited by how it was turning out I couldn't help myself. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the end result. The wall looks a little orange in the photo but I am still in love with the colour, the trees and the yellow birds to accompany it. I added in some of my own branches to balance out the busyness on the one side, but overall I am super happy!
Now I have to wait for Curtis because he needs to paint the shelves white and actually adhere them to the wall (thumbtacks probably isn't going to cut it). And then finally find some cute decorative items to adorn the shelves with! Gah… getting so exciting! Hope you love the trees and feel free to leave comments about your thoughts and ideas! xo
Wow Holly! The trees and birds look great! I especially love the placement of the shelves :)
