I have had this idea in my head for a long time... then the other day I decided TODAY IS THE DAY! I got out the primer and primed three panels.
I mixed the first color with the green paint in the room already, a little bit of grey paint and white paint. The top color I used the same paint with more white and a little gloss paint. I stenciled the wall using a Martha Stewart stencil. The trim was 20$ on sale at Home Depot. On a personal note, I cut the trim by myself! Usually I would get my husband to do this part... but not this time! I took a picture to prove it! : )
I put my metal circle wall art in the middle square and I am planing on finding two candle sconces for the outer squares.
i love it!!!!!

That is awesome - I admire your fearless use of power tools! I am always afraid of hacking off a limb. Thanks for visiting my blog!
ReplyDeleteI’m actually a fan of metallic art, so that circle display really impressed me. I like how you incorporated a classic Martha Stewart design with this contemporary art, and produced a postmodern feel. The end product is just amazing. Who would have thought that this wall panel is a DIY work? Were you able to use those candle sconces? I really salute you, Cecile!
