All Kids Murals

Punky Brewster inspired bedroom mural!

When a Mom contacts you and asks you to paint a mural for her daughter’s room inspired by her fave childhood show (that her little girls now just LOOOOVE too), um….yes, I am 10238% in!
My friend Jenna has passed on her love for Punky Brewster to her little girls so when they decided to “upgrade” the girls room from their recent move, then OF COURSE I was honored to paint a part of this space that I hope inspires play and imagination and confidence for years and years and years! šŸ™‚

I 900% believe that our surroundings are the culprit to our inspiration and energy day by day (hence the reason why I love painting murals SO darn much and believe in the power of paint in our homes) ANNND I even more believe that in a kids space, these walls and surroundings can be the source for imagination and play and, quite frankly, can transport kids into their own world! I *SO* hope that this Punky Brewster space does this for the girls.

If you are a fan of Punky, you know that her original bedroom was bold enough to “blind a smurf” (according to Henry)…her room is full of colorful hills and florals and even a barn door and animals and clouds and looks like a cute, colorful scene that a kid would paint. So as Jenna and I went back and forth with some sketches, we landed on a more modern and updated color-scheme of Punky’s bedroom! šŸ™‚

Here is a screenshot of the original bedroom from the Punky Brewster series:

UPDATED PAINT COLOR I USED (all Behr Marquee paint…one of my faves):

  • Pink – Diva Glam
  • Bright blue/Tealish color – Tropical Sea
  • Orange – Orioles
  • Yellow – Buzz-in
  • Light blue – Undine
  • White was just a standard white, and then I did mix some white with the yellow and blue for some of the accents šŸ™‚

I first color blocked the wall with the big chunks (or hills) of paint. I always use chalk to write on the walls (WAYYYYY easier to erase and paint over than pencil…trust me)! šŸ™‚ Those were easy and quick to paint.

I then added in the details (dashed lines, double lines, etc). They were more “eyeballed” just to be sure they were still precise but also offered the not perfect look to a kids room. (I mixed some white with some of the colors for these accents).

And last were the flowers and clouds. Again, I used chalk to sketch these out (I promise, you can erase 900 times if needed without a trace on the walls). I drew out the flowers similar to the original Punky room, but took the girls advice into account about which flower got what color in the end šŸ™‚

I think this turned out adorable and such a modern take on the original Punky Brewster room! šŸ™‚

The finishing touches, I think, are the sunshine rug and the Moon curtains (on their way to the room)…both the moon and sunshine Punky has painted on her window and window shade in the original show šŸ™‚

Adding color and lots of little personalities and Adding color and lots of little personalities and faces to our weekend. Because love wins and death is conquered….so yes, this is for sure how we celebratešŸŽ‰ 
Also, every time I cracked an egg this weekend, I squealed in the sound or noise that I thought the personality of the egg would sound šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ obvi.
I would PICKle you as my Valentine over and over i I would PICKle you as my Valentine over and over if I could! šŸ˜‚
Also, yes, this is clearly a @claussenpicklesofficial because duh, they are the best! ā¤ļø

The alternate caption could also be ā€œyup…..it’s a Valentine pickle. Because my kids are obsessed with vinegar soaked veggies. Just swipe for the Halloween pickle proof šŸ„’ ā€œ
For the record, I got approximately zero adulting For the record, I got approximately zero adulting things done while constructing this cardboard @encantomovie Casita of my daughters dreams. Except of course inserting many phrases in place of the ā€œwe don’t talk about Brunoā€ song…..ya know, ā€œwe don’t talk about dishes no no nooooo. We don’t talk about laundryyyyyy.ā€ šŸ  šŸŽØ šŸ’› 
Also, the minute the hot glue was dry, Esther picked up the Casita, hugged it and ran it to the living room where she played most of the afternoon. A moment of Mom win to warm my heart šŸ˜­ā¤ļø
ā€œMay you find the light that guides you homeā€ ā€œMay you find the light that guides you homeā€ 
One of my fave song + fave yearly progression that makes me allll happy and sappy. Merry Christmas šŸŽ„ I hope you’re finding light this holiday season!
If I’ve said it once and I’ll say it 3 squllio If I’ve said it once and I’ll say it 3 squllion more times: I LOVE PAINNNTTTTT! Here’s the thing……paint is always, 100% paint-overable. If you paint something, step back, live with it for while but just doesn’t feel right…..simply paint over it. Like really that simple. 
I’ve done this a handful of times in our own home….bathrooms, bedrooms, hallways (like so many times in the hallways šŸ˜‚)! 
Painting to me is a slight reflection of life: nothing is perfect, and even when mistakes or missteps feel overwhelming they are always worth fixing and usually fixable annnnnd it’s amazing how much a  small moment can bring big joy…..or in this case a big moment on a biiigggg wall šŸŽ‰šŸŽØ
I am doing my last restock of these little nutcrac I am doing my last restock of these little nutcracker buddies tonight at 7pm (central time)! So if you’ve had your eyes on them, especially after seeing them in @hgtvmagazine (gahhhhhhh, still can’t get over this), then be sure to find yourself in my shop tonight at 7pm central!
Even thought I had alllll the intentions of postin Even thought I had alllll the intentions of posting this sooner, I make no apologies because I don’t like living in the land of the ā€œshoulddasā€. Especially during this season of intentional slowing down and anticipating the arrival of Christmas. 
Download this coloring advent village and take a few min away to color each house and talk about the season and the way you can shine light! 
PS, download the file on my blog amongst the other holiday themed doodles coloring sheets…..AND we printed our village in gargantuan size from Staples….(their engineer print) and I am not one but mad about the fact that it will take up nearly half a wall! šŸ˜‚ ā¤ļøšŸŽ„
Tis the season for my crafting fingers to be full Tis the season for my crafting fingers to be full of hot glue burns and can honestly say it makes me happy. Like so thankful and happy! 
Okkayyy well maybe not the burns themselves but the fact that I’m over here, in my little studio space in Wisconsin crafting my heart out and you’re sending the love right back to me with all the support! Support for the doodles and painting and costumes and sewing and other colorful things that I’m eager to share! 
SO thankful. Like I’d really love to give you all a humongous big hug right now.
