Painting Dandelions on the Wall

It's Friday!!! But, it's not just any friday. No, no, no. This friday I'm headed to the beach with some other mom friends. No kids, no husbands, NO BOYS, just us 5 mommas! I can't wait.

But, I promised to show you the graphic I painted on our bedroom wall. I know, I teased you as long as I could.

Pretty Handsome Boys #1 & #2, can you please pull back the curtains for the final reveal?

Dandelion Seeds

Gentle breeze picks up... 

 ...blowing in our bedroom suite. Peaceful restful. Ahhhh.

I painted the graphic in a few hours using a mixture of 1/3 of the wall color to 2/3 white ceiling paint. The tutorial is HERE. But, if you are hesitant to paint your own, check out Leen's graphic dandelions HERE.

Because I tortured you with anticipation, I'll give you a quick tour of our bedroom (a very quick tour because it is a very small bedroom).

 

 Our pottery barn sleigh bed (gifted to us by my sister) flanked by new curtains and blinds that I showed you how to hang this week.

 

Thank goodness for two closets! Peeking into Pretty Handsome Boy #1's room.
We painted a woodland mural in there. Some day I'll share it with you.

A photo I took of the London Eye when Pretty Handsome Guy and I had a romantic getaway. I uploaded the file to CanvasPeople.com and gave it to my love for Christmas.

Sunprints made with my boys. So fun, so easy, so pretty!

 

And on the opposing wall, is the dandelion mural blowing seeds over
the Craig's List Dresser I refinished.

Ultimately, I want to add a wall quote over the dresser. But, Pretty Handsome Guy and I are still not agreeing on compiling quotes. 

Here are a few quotes I like (notice how I said "I like".)

Remember your yesterdays, dream your tomorrows, live your todays.

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways...

Love is a flower, you got to let it – you got to let it grow. - John Lennon

Love does not consist of gazing in each other,
but in looking outward together in the same direction.

Good night, sweet friend: thy love ne'er alter, till thy sweet life end. - Shakespeare

Let your love fly like a bird on a wing.

Where there is love, there is life. - Ghandi

May the warm winds of heaven blow softly in this home.

Grow old along with me the best is yet to be.

I am all ears if anyone has any other suggestions. In other words:

Please, please help us find a quote we can agree on!
