Easy DIY murals – Home With Mariette

Wall murals can be fun, it can be affordable and you do not need a degree in fine art to knock a good one out! All it takes is some good planning, the tools (aka a brush, sponge or stamp) and some paint.

Planning would be the crucial part in making a good DIY mural, you can measure out lines or borders or draw out outlines to guide you and for more complex designs make sure you plan what to paint first. Stencils are also a great way to ensure your pattern repeats properly.

Bellow are some inspiring ideas to do your own striking DIY mural, I have even included two local mamas that have done some amazing DIY murals.

So two local moms have outdone themselves with their own DIY murals.

Marusckha, owner of Crimson & Clover as well as Wildbloom did an amazing feature wall with only a sponge and white paint and created a lavish space to showcase her lovely oil collection.
