I stenciled a pattern on my wall! So something Granny would do. She’s painted designs on her kitchen cabinets, painted the wall behind her stove to look like a tiled backsplash, painted her living room floor to look like ceramic tiles, and the list goes on. I have to say that the crafty gene is in me too, and I’m very proud of my new accent wall in our bedroom. Silly me, I didn’t take a before picture, but it was just solid blue, and I was bored with it. Here’s what it looks like after.

I feel like I need some artwork above the headboard, so that’s next on my list. And I also think the bed and night stands would look better white, but I’m not sure Derrick would go for that!

Looks great!!! I could never have the patience to do that.
Not sure I’ll do it again! It was tedious, and if you look really closely, you can tell it wasn’t done by a professional!
