I had this vision for Nathan's room (I was actually trying to copy one of Sarah Richardsons rooms) and since Kevin never got around to putting up the chair rail I ditched that vision and went with plan B-I painted Nate's room and I am so glad I did! I was left with vinyl letters I purchased off etsy and I didn't want to throw them away so I decided to use them in the playroom. I was nervous! Putting up 26 letters and trying to make sure they were all straight and perfect-yup I was scared. Iwas going to be a challenge. And I knew if I didn't do it perfect it could end up looking like "hot DIY mess."
Here is the before picture:
And after:
I was actually surprised at how easy it was to do! I had to cut out each letter from the vinyl (they are on a sheet of vinyl), then I used painters tape to tape each letter to the wall to see where I wanted them. I used a little leveler to try to get each letter straight once I took off the backing. I stuck the letter to the wall and then rubbed each letter on! I am so happy with how it turned out! And apparently they come off easy!
Tab this looks so CUTE! Good job girl! PS Funny thing- in your post you said 'I used a little leveler...' I ALWAYS call the level a leveler and my hubs makes fun of me every time :) Maybe its a Canadaian thing... or just a girl thing :)
ReplyDeleteHahaha! Oh I guess it is just called a level:-)
