.... 2010 Fall ....

Grand Prize 
Amy Sauter - Marshall, MN
"We love the way the mural turned out!!!  I was apprehensive at first because I wasn't sure the technique would work on my textured walls and another issure was being able to see the pen marks on a dark wall.  The product worked beautifully and I was blown away at how easy the application was. What a great product."
The bedding in the room is from Baby Gap and the chair is from Pottery Barn Kids.

1st Place
Alycia Rogal - Surrey, British Columbia, Canada
"We are expecting our first child in January, but we have several "fur children" already in our home.  As a professional dog trainer, there was no other option than to have a puppy themed nursery, focusing primarily on our breed, the Labrador Retriever.   I ended up "editing" several of the dogs (and cats) in the mural to look like our pets and others that know in our extended family, from breed and colour, right down to the colour of their collars!  I had so much fun painting this mural and everyone just LOVES it!  Thank you so much for such a wonderful product!"

2nd Place
Leone Socha
Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
"I love the truck and building theme and had a hard time finding something that would work for decorating his walls!!! Until I was told about your website - I found exactly what I wanted for his room!!  I really enjoyed doing this for him and he totally loves it!  It took me quite a while to complete, but every minute was totally worth it!"

3rd Place
Alisa Gonzalez - Lehigh Acres, FL
"My son's room came out fabulous. At first I was a bit overwhelmed, but once I got started I couldn't stop. It was so easy to do. If you can color you can do this. My son's room is the highlight of my home. The kids always want to play in his room - they love it and so does everyone else. His room looks like it was professionally done." 
The bedding, rug and stuffed pirate are made by Olive Kids Pirate line.

5th Place
Tanora Polk - Murfreesboro, TN
"I love to paint murals on my childrens' walls. When I found out I was having a girl, I became excited about giving her a "girlie" nursery. As soon as I orderd her baby bedding I immediately  began looking for a cute mural to paint. I googled your website and became elated when I saw this mural. My mom, my husband and I traced the mural one week before my due date. When I got my strength back, I painted the mural in less than two days. Now my 4 month old daughter is enjoying her beautiful space."

The crib bedding is Daniella by CoCoLo.

Honorable Mention 
Silhouette Safari - Small
Carrie Wasalaski - Grand Blanc, MI 

"Our experience with painting the mural went really well. It didn't take long to trace and paint once we had the hang of it. I would never have been able to do something this nice freehand and was so happy to find this mural online. It looks great with the jungle animals, crib and bed we purchased as well. We get tons of compliments on the mural!"

The crib is a Babi Italia Eastside Convertible crib. The bedding is from Pottery Barn Kids - the Katie Collection.

Honorable Mention

Palm Tree Silhouettes
Babette Guzik 

"Yes, I painted the background first, just a straight sky/ocean horizon. Then I freehanded the sand.I really over bought the paint - I didn't use much at all. Once I found my groove it  went much faster. I was pleasantly surprised how easy it was even on the concrete wall. It really spruced up the yard and was everything I had hoped for!"

Honorable Mention

Sea Treasures
Betsy Bowers - Houston, TX

"I fell in love with the Sea Treasures design and knew it was perfect for my little one's room. I invited a few friends over to help me get started and we had so much fun working on the mural.The think I love most is that if you have no artistic skills it still comes out looking great and professional. Buying this mural has been a great investment of my time and money. It creates just the right atmosphoere for my little baby.

The bedding is "Bubbles" by Kids Line.

Honorable Mention 
Large Silhouette Safari
Tim Harris 

"I decided to surprise my wife and completely design the baby's nursery with any input from her. 
Let's say we surprised quite a few friends and family too when we told people I would be doing the designing. The entire mural took a weekend to complete by myself. Thank you so much for bringing life to our room as we begin to bring our own life to the room!"

Honorable Mention

Enchanted Treehouse
Stephanie Plummer - Firestone, CO

"I free-handed a mural in my first daughter's room. It was cute but not amazing. Then we built a new house and had another baby. We needed two more murals but they needed to be amazing. Your process was so easy and I was able to make it personal with a few changes. Thank you so much for helping to make our rooms magical!"
