There are so many different possibilities to consider when planning a mural in rooms for children.

Imagine a night sky ceiling complete with all the planets, stars and moon.
Perhaps there’s a rocket ship blasting through space.
Or, a room with clouds on all the walls, several planes flying across the walls and ceiling.
Maybe a fairy tale castle on a grassy hill for your little princess.
What about giant graphic flowers and a favorite storybook quote above her bed.
Jungle animals and bamboo for that animal loving grade school age child.
Your little guy might go nuts for sports equipment and team colors in his room.
A prehistoric landscape with volcanoes and dinosaurs is ideal for that little archaeologist.
Perhaps she’d love a pretty garden with a rose covered trellis over her bed.

Your child can have the room of his or her dreams, contact Ellen to discuss your project.
