In the past three years since we've moved into this home I've made a few drastic changes to our decor. But I suppose when you start with blank white walls, anything you do is drastic!
One year when my husband was away directing camp for two weeks, I completely re-did our bedroom. I painted the walls, dresser, and nightstand. Had a new bed frame made and installed by our good friend, and painted a mural on our closet doors.
Recently I had a Thankfulness Tree on our wall for the Thanksgiving holiday. I loved the tree so much, I decided to paint it on the wall!
Again, I am NOT an artist, but since I love beautiful things, I've figured out

As you can see from the images below, both times I have chosen a silhouette of sorts. I haven't "branched out" much since it worked well for me! I hope this has given you inspiration or ideas for your own home! (More to come on painting tips as well as future painting projects I have planned!)


This is in our newly (two years ago now) decorated master bedroom. Our closet doors are floor to ceiling, so I decided to go BIG with the mural in here, grabbing the image from an inspiration piece I will show you in a future post ... I used a lighter version of the paint on the walls on the closet doors. You can see the contrast more in the picture than in person.
