We used painters tape for the stripes and needed at least 5 coats for the dark blue stripes. We used a level to apply the tape and did the stripes random. We designed/printed the mural on an 8.5 x 11 sheet and drew it into 8 quadrants. Then we sketched each quadrant on the wall with a pencil and then painted it! Oar above Mural: a gift from Pottery Barn

I have seen quite a number of nautical nurseries here. But I think this is the first one that used the combination of blue and yellow. I think it’s a unique color scheme and I like how you worked it. The contrast is pretty neat.
I really like the life savers and the navy blue stripes on the wall. This room is really perfect for a little boy.
