Forest Friends Paint-by-Number Mural

"We are thrilled to say we used an Elephants on the Wall mural for a redesign of our children's space at the Canyon Hills Branch at Anaheim Public Library! The mural is the focal point of our story time space, and ties in our theme of bears in the woods. Teddy Bear Picnic is a beloved tradition for our branch and the mural is a way for us to celebrate all year round. Our wall is at a diagonal, so I was excited that this design filled the space perfectly. The pattern was the perfect amount of detail when painting, and made the design very approachable. We are very pleased with the result!"

(They had to rent a 26" ladder to paint the mural!)

Jerusalem Paint-by-Number Wall Mural

Windows on Jerusalem Paint-by-Number Wall Murals

"The St. Barnabas Youth and I absolutely painting these murals. I’m very artistic and I have grown up working in community theater – my kids have all had several murals in the bedrooms over the years I have procured with a few different methods. I am never going back to a projector now that I know you! I traced these over just 2-3 days and then we spent several months chipping away at the painting – to be honest I absolutely went back and corrected some student work. But they haven’t noticed and they are taking great ownership of this space. Can’t thank you enough!"
