If you're looking to add a touch of nature to your space, we have a fun idea for you! Ashley French, from @mrsashleyfrench, tackles this easy mural of a botanical palm leaf.
Prep
Determine where you want to paint the mural. Then, wipe down your selected wall with a lightly damp rag to remove dirt or dust.
Sketch the Design
Use a pencil to sketch out your mural onto the wall. You can choose any design! Ashley chose to draw out botanical palm leaves.
Protect with Tape
Using FrogTape® Delicate Surface Painter’s Tape, tape along sketch lines, on baseboards, ceilings and adjoining walls. For best results, after application, run a damp cloth over the edges of the painter’s tape to activate the Paint Block® Technology.
Paint the Design
Paint inside the taped off area with a color of your choosing. This will act as the leaf stems. Then, remove the FrogTape® Delicate Surface Painter’s Tape surrounding the stems while the paint is still wet.
Next, paint the individual palm leaf fronds using a small paintbrush.
Remove Tape
To wrap up, remove the remaining FrogTape® Delicate Surface Painter’s Tape from the wall by pulling the tape slowly at a 45-degree angle.
Final Product
Now, let the paint dry and admire the pop of nature in your room!
