Turning my Painting into a Wallpaper Mural! (yes... another one lol)

- H'YELLO! What's that?? ANOTHER mural in the Maksy household? You are absolutely correct and I cannot be stopped, lol. This time, though, we're doing things a little differently!
In the quest for whimsical victorian home decor, I thought a lovely forest landscape would work perfectly. BUT instead of hand-painting onto the wall itself, I decided to paint it on a much smaller scale and then send it off to be made into a wallpaper mural! My wrists sincerely thanked me.
ANYWHO please enjoy the chaos that went along with this process.
LOVE YOU!

Ladies, gentlemen, and otherwise unspecified persons who may or may not be geese, we have received our weekly dose of ✨whimsy✨
It’s me. I’m geese.
I’ve never been this early!!! ❤❤❤
Perfect comment and first line for a play
I'm the silliest of all the geese
I would like to state for the record that I am verifiably... a silly goose.
I think the extra wallpaper bit would be so cute as a hidden mural in the back of a closet or in a little nook/ceiling over a staircase.
Oooooooh or on the front of a door so it feels like you've walked into a magical portal to a forest! Great idea!
Yesssss😊
16:06 You should hang the original painting on the lounge wall behind the mural, so you can see it through the doorway 🖼️
@@missmarypoppins9191 I love this idea Soo so much ✨✨✨
this!
I love the canvas texture so much. Also, the fact that you can just whip up a painting whenever you need it humbles me.
I like it too! The texture gives the wallpaper more depth, it looks intentional :)
Abstract painter here: if you don't like the canvas texture, next time (if there is one) just apply a couple layers of gesso, smoothing out with an old credit card. As for the seams, paint the wall dark (ish) green. That sort of what they used to do when they put up that lovely wood paneling in the 70's.
I'm studying building restoration and that's exactly the thing that was taught to us about wallpapering; paint the walls with a color that match the wallpaper so any possible gaps won't be that visible.
Edit. If you don't feel like painting the whole wall just paint the areas where the seams are going to be wich needs a bit more measuring and planing ahead
And paint a bit beyond your border so you have some to trim.
Yas. Or, you know, paint on paper or cardboard that has no texture #JustAThought
I thought the gaps were where the company hasn't trimmed the rolls properly and it was a slither edge of the paper rather than an actual gap in-between
wish I could save a comment for the time in my life it will be relevant to me haha.
Born to cover my house in whimsy, forced to rent an apartment 😢
same!! 😭
a modern tragedy
Maybe check alexandra gater She does some removable peel and stick thats renter friendly, and with this custom wallpaper rachel did, you could have it be sorta whimsical!
Im renting and am not wallpapering because i cannot commit and am intimidated by the work :') but have resigned to the fact that i will have to repaint everything when i leave
Any landlord worth the rent should let you do what you like and paint over it later before you leave.
Crow Advice from my Ren Faire Falconer Friend:
"If you want them to start to warm up to you, the process is simple.
1. Choose a food item or gift they will like that is easily accessible and cheap to produce.
2. Make a routine to offer it. Birds like routine.
3. Make sure they can clearly see it is you leaving the food out. And then put some distance between you and the food.
4. Once they are snatching up the food as soon as you walk away from it, each day reduce the distance you stand from the food.
5. Continue this pattern until they essentially come to meet you for the food.
I wont say this will 100% work but it's the best I can come up with."
Huzzah!
Thank your friend for me!!
And so begins the Befriending All Birds Era of my life! 😂 Tell your friend I said thank you, and also I I'm so jealous they are a falconer.
This is also how I've tamed down several feral cats.
Also keep in mind that in North America it's currently Bebe Season for crows. Which means that they won't be visible as much, and when they are, they'll be in a hurry to grab food and get back to the nest/fledgling.
Scenic artist here: the way we do those huge opera scenic backdrops is that we grid the reference image (in your case, your original painting), then we apply the grid onto the backdrop, only many many times larger. That way you only have to focus on one box at a time, and boxes are usually 1m square at the biggest. With a project this size, you can probably get away with 1ft square boxes for your grid or even smaller.
How do you achieve the whole piece looking like a whole piece in the end ? I feel as if I was to attempt it, the squares would not connect very well and the whole picture would be crooked…
My whole house is murals (dragons, foggy purple forests, crumbling ruins, old book illusions coming to life, various scenes from my favorite movies and cartoons) So great to see someone else who has the mural painting bug! You are a very good artist!
Your house sounds like an absolute dream 💙
Aaahhh I think everyone needs to know if you have or can make a video of this!
I love how it turned out. When you stand in the doorway, it looks like you're stepping through a portal into a whimsical woodland. It's beautiful!
I agree. And that makes it ok that the color is a little cooler
That duck noise you use literally lives in my head rent free and I hear it whenever I have one of those moments 11/10
SAME. I also sing "Good enough" to myself at least 4 times a day 😂
SAAAAME, oh that heck it isn't just me lol
It literally came to my head the second I read the comment.
@@roxy5759 'Good enooough~' is helping me get through life, I swear
OMG, SAME 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Just a suggestion but you could put the extra pieces in a frame like a painting and hang it on the wall behind the doorway so that it "completes" the mural. 💫🐿
Ooh, I like this idea!
I kind of LOVE that you can see the canvas texture. Like that's so cool. You can see that YOU did it. You know? You can see the strokes. That's so cool
I’m gonna let my kids paint murals in their own bedrooms. It’s their space, and it’s important that they enjoy it and personalise it! ❤
This was my favourite thing my parents ever let me and my sisters do. My dad’s a painting contractor, so we even had access to lots of paint colors. Highly recommend, it keeps kids occupied and able to personalize their space and in the long run probably keeps your walls safer because a kid won’t want to destroy their hard work so they’ll keep it safe and, you can get a wall refresh if they decide they don’t like the mural. Win win!
Tape and tarps will be your best friends...
My mom wanted to let me, but most housing in America is either up for rent or lease, and it's rare for people to own their own homes anymore, so if you DO do this, get some wallpaper that you can peel off, and paint on that instead! We were too poor and rented our apartment when i was a kid, but if I ever have my own, I plan to let them do so as best I can manage it.
@@Kyosumari oh yeah! Or those rolls of brown or white paper, you can tape them up for kids to draw all over and get their marker fury out on the paper instead of your wall!
I love the canvas texture to this. Makes it look like you actually live in a painting. This turned out so cool!
I actually really love the canvas texture!! It makes you look like a lil borrower standing in front of a giant humans painting or a background in a dollhouse 🥹 love how it turned out!!
I had the same thought! Borrower Rachel is living her best life 😄
Aww, I love the Borrowers!
My husband has been forced to embraced watching Rachel's bi-weekly joy and whismy with me. As she starts painting he whispers, "Happy little trees." In a Bob Ross voice. He is official a Rachel fan.
I'm not even three minutes in and I'm obsessing over her outfits. That first skirt I'm dying to make AND THEN SHE WHIPS OUT THE PUFFY SLEEVES AND BUTTON DRESS! My heart cannot.
I want that brown ruched camisole top.
Trust, we feel this way about all her outfits
I have a whole folder of screenshots on my phone that's just her outfits so I can try to recreate them lol
It's pretty standard stuff (no I'm kidding she finds the cutest tops ever). But you can reproduce this general style with a couple staples of high-waisted full linen skirts and several cute snug tops. I love her outfits because it's already what I've been wearing for the last few years, except I'm not skilled with color coordination so I look like a messy rainbow. But it's very comfortable !
To cover the white lines between the panels, just use matching pastel chalk and dust it with a small make up brush. It helps so much 😊
You may even be able to use water-based markers. I know we did that to cover up creases in artwork when I worked in a frame shop. The paper top is usually treated with something to help reduce fading and the ink often creates something of a resist. This is just on the surface of the paper, though. The sides of the paper are still nicely absorbent, so you can use markers right on the edge and wipe off excess that may extend to the top with a tissue. It doesn't even need to be damp, necessarily. Most water-based markers dry slowly enough that wiping away can be done fairly easily, but if you need just a few drops of water, it shouldn't affect the paper.
The mural is Beyoodiful. RE: Your quest to befriend the crows. Don't give up. I live on the second floor of an apartment in San Francisco. My bedroom has a fire escape off to one side, and trees in the next yard that the crows used to perch in. After nearly a year of feeding them peanuts, sunflower seeds and hard boiled eggs (chopped up) by leaving them on the fire escape steps, they now come several times a day for treats, and they sit calmly on the fire escape railing while I hang out of the window to feed them. I'm about 18" away and they don't even budge. They used to fly off, but now they seem to feel at ease around me and simply hang out while the snacks are served. It makes me very happy that they feel safe enough to do so.
I actually love the canvas texture!
Also, it was expensive, yes...but not nearly as expensive as the custom mural we did in my daughter's room. 😅 I don't have a painterly bone in my body, so we hired a friend who's an artist to do it. It was $900. She was going to art school at the time and so we paid for her textbooks and other college expenses. Soooo worth it though. It adds so much whimsy and my daughter loves to point out the forest animals and pixies. 🤗 We also hung up a wooden art piece that has an old man's face carved on it, and my husband dubbed him Mr. Maple and he sings the ABCs and my daughter loves it.
A big reason why we did this (I'm sure I've commented this before but imma say it again lol) is because of your mural videos! I was so inspired by the first one and I love each one you do. And now, I have a little bit of whimsy in my home too, thanks to you. ❤
That makes me wonder how much the mural bedroom in my sister's house cost - the previous owner had a mural done on all of the walls and ceiling of the smallest bedroom. It's an alien planet landscape, complete with lizard-man and alien cat, with a spaceship breaking through the sky.
Rachel artistic abilities are unmeasurable. Sometimes I wish I could be on her level of whimsical that gives me dopamine. I look forward to her and I don’t know if life would still be as magical without Rachel videos.
I'm always curious why she ever doubts her skill. She's incredible!
@@petrastedman669good old impostor syndrome is what I'd guess.
From one Rachel to another... you're my spirit animal ❤❤❤.
sweet message but ZERO punctuation though?? hehe
I’m sorry the level of run on sentence has led to this really annoying message lol.
@@sweetpotatogreens7491 Honestly I was kinda in a rush to write it lol before it got buried in other comments. Because I really wanted Rachel to see how much joy she brings to my daily life. I swear I know proper punctuation lol 😂 and I made sure to fix it cause I get where you are coming from.
“Of which there are several - much like staircases at Rosings”
🤣🤣🤣 I swear this is the reason I think of houses with more than one staircase as ✨fancy✨
I cried a little that you left the outlet covers on; it's so easy to unscrew them so you don't have gaps around them. But at least you painted them! LOOKS SO FREAKING COOL 💜
Ditto - sometimes Rachel's chaotic energy goes a little too far
I think I know of a way for you to come to love the canvas texture! Pretend you’re a Borrower! You’ve borrowed a discarded painting from one of the Human Beans in the house to use as wallpaper in your little home! Now you do need to decorate the whole room in Borrowercore! Oversized everything! Vintage matchbox table! Giant buttons as decorations! The most dollhouse looking couch in the world! Tchotchkes of unusual size! Also a great opportunity to go antiques shopping and do some DIY projects!
I just imagined giant buttons hanging on the wall like some people hang decorative plates, don't know if that's what you thought of, anyway, that would be so cool!
@@JankoWalski-hz3lu Yes! That would be cute! I think it would be a super fun DIY for Rachel to make a giant pincushion footrest or making a wall clock into a giant pocket watch. Maybe add in a big chess piece as a statue, etc. It would be so cute and whimsical. And we already know that Rachel love Borrowercore.
@@TearsBehindSmiles omg, the pocket watch
I wonder if Frodo would like a giant slipper bed xD
@@JankoWalski-hz3luif she goes for the classic "tomato" pincushion it shouldn't be too hard to get the point across. Maybe even add the "strawberry" bit on a string.
The wallpaper mural is really beautiful!!!
Even if the crows don't like the peanuts, the blue jays and gray squirrels will love them.
Funny crow story. Years ago we had a large crow family living on our property. One day our neighbor came home from shopping. While unloading her car, she dropped a bag of groceries and some bagels rolled out onto the ground. Lickity split one of those crows flew over and grabbed a bagel. I still remember how surprised I was to see a crow with a bagel hanging from its beak fly by me on the way back to its tree.
I recently drove past a crow that was dining on some roadkill and I thought "this is probably a bad time to make him my friend " 😂
@@lajoyous1568your comment reminded me of a thing I read about a dude who managed to accidentally befriend crows by throwing roadkill off the road. Iirc, he lived close to a road that got roadkill fairly often, and he'd pass it every day. He didn't want vultures to get killed while trying to scavange, so he'd always stop and move roadkill to a more open area at the side of the road. After a while he started noticing more and more crows gathering when he showed up, and eventually they started bringing him little gifts.
@@bratatouille That's awesome that he didn't want the vultures to become roadkill 😄 oddly enough vultures have learned to duck under trucks instead of flying off, occasionally that gets them killed.
Somehow I think there's a cool band name waiting to come out of all of this 🤔
I love the canvas detail. You painted it yourself, so it's one of a kind and whimsy.
We used to have crows visit our balcony a few years ago. I missed them so I put out peanuts but the squirrels and blue jays got to them first. I put out shiny objects as well as peanuts and I kid you not, crows appeared that day. Put out shinies, Rachel. Put. Out. Shinies.
(Stationary ones.. moving ones in the wind will freak them out)
Fun video! Some tips for making friends with crows: Let them see you eating outside. Let them see you leave some snacks where you were sitting. Do it daily, if possible. They learn routines easily, so being consistent will help! Good luck! 🐦
I mean the lamps need to be some whimsical birds, as they will be placed on the trees.
I like normal sconces, though, too. It gives a Narnia vibe, where a lamp post can grow in a forest.
Oh this was absolutely lovely. Im sorry the colors changed on you, even if it was on your end that still sucks. But it turned out just so tranquil, Shire afternoon, going for a walk next to the creek and the grass in warm on your toes, but the breeze is soft and cool and you find a surprise patch of strawberries that wasnt there last year and they are ripe enough for a snack while you sit and splish splash your feet in the almost too cold water, then theres a small rumble of thunder in the distance, but you know its not coming nearby, so you get to just enjoy the best parts of rain which are thunder and the smell.
Very specific i know, but thats how looking at that makes me feel.
I would love to see Nick’s reaction to this. He is definitely a keeper for understanding your creativity.
For your crow befriending side quest, I recommend making or buying yourself a few extra sparkly pots and yard décor, since of course, crows like the shiny things in life. Use their weaknesses against them, like any normal soul seeking friend missile wouldst do.
You should take the outlet covers off and put the peel and stick on them and screw them back on!
If you gesso and sand your canvas between gesso layers until smooth before painting on it, this will eliminate the canvas texture. If you want to shorten the drying time, place a fan blowing on it. This should approximately halve its dry time.
that hozier song truly awakens something in you when it's played
If you are applying dark wall coverings you should paint a coordinating color where your seems will be, and of course visa versa. Also remove outlet covers and cut a smaller hole so when you put the covers back on the hole will be completely covered. I love the trees and the canvas texture.
I think i actually LOVE the canvas texture. its adds to the whimsy!!!
So VERY hundred acre woods. I'm so in love with your home, the garden, the wallpaper and your little alcove corner, the fish in your pond. THIS IS EVERYTHING I WANT IN LIFE! For now, I will sit in my little rented room and live vicariously through you. (Best of luck in your crow sidequest, we're all cheering for you and the fullfillment of your disney princess potential.)
Thank you for being so cozy and kind and relatable. I just royally fucked up two very important art pieces that were pretty much crucial to the likelihood of me being able to sell my art in a storefront and watching you really helps me calm down enough to remake them.
best of luck!! :)
It's honestly good that the crows aren't coming back, i know people wanna be friends with them so bad but it's not really good for them as wild animals! Crows that become reliant on people forget how to take care of themselves and will approach random humans for food which leads to them getting killed a lot (either attacked by the people, their pets, cars in high traffic areas etc), and also actually increases the risk of them hurting a human as well which is unfortunate for the human but also, again, dangerous for the bird.
For anyone interested, the best way to see crows and other birds is have a bird friendly garden!! look into what's locally appropriate. If not, setting up a feeder area is okay sometimes, look into what's actually appropriate for certain birds in your area, don't guess or assume, and don't leave out pet food.
And whatever you do, do NOT go near baby birds if you see them, if you are sure it's hurt or abandoned (not just on the ground, you can check this by observing to see if the parents come back, particularly overnight or by the next day), call your local wildlife center :) (this goes for any injured animal, don't engage unless they're absolutely in harms way)
There is something so satisfying about the title cards between sections of the video. I love that it’s always hand lettering on a detail from the video. The attention to detail makes my designer heart so happy.
“Like a Taurus in a croissant shop” is such a good descriptor, because as a Taurus myself I know exactly what I would do in a croissant shop
The canvas texture adds to the fantasy of "living in a painting"......which of course.....we all have done.
The secret pants! I love the secret pants!
PS- I also love the mural. Very nicely done.
As someone who was allowed to paint their walls in whimsical ways, I can tell you that the outcome would've been just as many beautifully decorated walls :)
My teenage mural was there over 40 years, I wonder if the next owner kept it.
Yes Rachel. I start my mural tomorrow. This is what I needed.
Came as quick as I could... Cause when i sees the new notifications, yeets whatever I'm doing temporarily elsewhere and watch cause it gives me the happy feels. Great video as always and another thing to add to the list one when i have normal walls instead of paneling...a cool mural!!! Also, you ain't the only one that flinches when a larger tape measure closes, cause when you don't, you either do like me and a) fail to watch and clip your fingers, b) the person holding the other end accidentally lets go and it almosts whips you in the face and you hope you have time to duck, or just as important, c) flinch and lets go, realizing you forgot to put on shoes first much too late when the tape measure falls on the top of your foot, don't matter socks or no socks, tape measures unless you're a pro is basically an accident waiting to happen...
Yes, on the addition of the sconces. Most definitely.
Literally just thinking, "It's Friday, I wonder if Rachel has posted yet" and here we are and I already feel better. PS - Alexandra Gater uses a lot of peel and stick wallpaper, and has some tips for next time - 1 is don't cut it until after you have stuck it, and the other is to use a laser level and there's something about aligning that I don't recall but it has to do with crooked old house walls so worth looking for!
Brava!!!!! When I was 6-11 years old my Room was painted a disney themed mural on all 4 walls with exact replicas of Zeus staring down from clouds down to a huge tree with Kaa and abu in it, Simba and Lumineer on another wall with Raja trying to catch flounder in a pond on another. From 11 to 16 I had a room darkest blue with gold stars and moons fit for the halls of the Astronomy tower , as if accross from professors Trewlany classroom - very mystical. Then from 16-20 I had a Tim Burton room; dark charcoal one wall had a full size mural of the first page typed of James and the Giant Peach on old parchment paper, the Snake from bettle juice crawled above my closet, There was a 10' tall onto ceiling black tree sillouette, one side the branches were curly and had A 6' tall profile sillouteete of willy Wonka leaning on trunk and the other side of tree was pointy branches with the corpse bride (exact replica) holding a flower bouquette And the last wall where the head of the bed touched was an 8 foot moon a curvy hill and a 9' tall Jack skellington. So now as a direct rebellion to my mother and older sisters who did so many murals in every house we had "to show how creative they were" way too much which now has made me sadly see their form creativity just seem tacky- I was so happy to paint my newest home a boring Beige and chocolate pallete lol It's seems Always greener on the otherside and there's always something a mother could have done different hahah
(I do have gallery walls of art on every wall and I did recreate the mysteical navy blue astro room in one room)
My newly wallpapered bathroom done by a professional still has the tiny white edge lines. It is why I usually paint murals too. Lovely!
Hiding from the contractors is the most relatable thing ever
Just what I needed, a dose of Rachel creativity in the midst of my chaotic move!
I love it! 😍Beautiful painting! You are so talented!❤It looks like you have a forest in your room… or you are about walk into one through a portal. That’s why I wouldn’t put on light fixtures. Rather paint over the outlets and the door. May be fairy lights over the door (the “magical portal”)…🌳✨🌳
audibly gasped at 'a Taurus in a croissant shop' but only beause of how accurate it is
the mural turned out stunning in my opinion and it was great to see you get some well-deserved rest instead of just working on ahead
I love it! I love the canvas texture...makes it look like the wall was a giant canvas!
I really love the canvas and paint texture! it's almost like you're living in a painting now
I agree! People would pay extra to get that kind of texture in a wall paper.
I want to live in your wallpaper! That's the best compliment I can give!😁
*in a British accent* Your talents never cease to amaze, dear lady! I say talents, for you have several. 👌
Okay, but I am actually loving the canvas texture somehow that adds to the whimsy and romance of it. I love seeing the growth of your house into your home. It’s so lovely and human. 💛💚
This is so cool! You did a great job with it. It sort of reminds me of the large room on the second floor of the Salem Towne house at Old Sturbridge Village! You have a lot more trees on yours.
Also, if you don;t want to give up painting on canvases because of the texture, you could try painting on a layer or two of gesso (or probably even some more acrylic paint) before you start your main composition. That should take out at least a fair bit of the canvas texture. I've really been enjoying these home decor videos!
For future reference, removing the plate from the outlet before putting the paper on, then cut the piece out and replace the plate. It will give a much nicer finished look. That being said, this is FANTASTIC and you should sell the source picture so we can do it, too!
i like the canvas texture! It gives me vibes of being Borrowers-sized and having your actual canvas as one of my walls 💓
I just have to say, i've been watching you for years and you are such an inspiration. You and Bob Ross are the reason for my passions for so many of my hobbies. You never fail to make me laugh and i just wanted to say thank you and keep up the great work!
You are living the life I hope to have eventually🤌🤌🤌🤌🤞. The dresses: yass. The home: yasss. The job:hell yeah.
Whimsical wall paint (or decor) of any sort is lovely!
At this point in time I think Rachel should put together a mural playlist lmao
I really like the canvas texture. Makes it look like a giant paining, like what is more whimsical than that? You could even make a frame around it for the whimsy of it :3
Ahhh I love it! Like something you'd see on a Jane Austen set. Also your outfits in this video are inspiring me for summer looks 💕
That’s a fantastic idea. Definitely makes a dramatic impact.
words cannot express how much I love this. all of it. the wall feels like a giant canvas that you painted on, and the doorway feels like when someone hangs mirrors up in the middle of a forest. suddenly there's magic portals going to another place, another time
I love that these videos are like a weekly catch up with a friend. I love seeing the whimsical way you decorate and I enjoy seeing your home transform into somewhere you love to be. As another New Englander (RI) I love to see the people in my area that enjoy these endeavors!
A plumb line is so easy to make: a piece of string with a weight on the end - anything will do, it just needs to hold the string straight long enough to make sure your first piece of wallpaper is straight. C'mon Rachel, you're a creator, you've created stone, wood beams, and itty bitty cute frogs!
LOVE LOVE LOVE this wall. It looks stunning. You are so talented. Did I say I LOVE it!?
Now just take a bit of paint and sign your masterpiece for posterity! ❤🎉
Absolutely
Can I just say how much I love that you painted the outlet covers to blend in? I admire attention to detail like that so much, Rachel. It's just so lovely!! 🖌🖌🖼🖼🎨🎨👩🏼🎨👩🏼🎨
Rachel, I would watch a video of you painting every week!
"Work smart not hard" is banging like nobody's business!
Definitely the experience we deserved
Thank you, Queen.
More of this! I absolutely LOVED watching you paint. You're so talented!
Oh I love love that. Any way to give the illusion that one lives in the forest surrounded by ✨️whimsy✨️ is a win in life
I actually love the canvas texture. It looks like you're stepping into a classic painting with the brush strokes and everything. Very very *whimsical* imo.
I hope we get a lovely nature break in every video!
Even just the thumbnail made me think of the murals in West Horsley place so hearing it mentioned made me happy!!
Crayola crayons on the white lines! My in-laws did a similar wallpaper mural in their house. Theirs was very dark, so the white lines were VERY visible. They just delicately coloured with black crayon and *Poof* all fixed! Good luck! Looks incredible
I think it turned out beautifully, so whimsical and ✨️ Maksymalist ✨️ ❤
Your mural videos have become one of my favorites 😘👌 so this is a real treat 🙌❤️ happy weekend, y'all
I LOVE the wall!!! And I think the canvas texture makes it even more whimsical 🥰💚
I honestly LOVE that you can see the texture of the canvas, it's giving Mary Poppins stepping into a painting and I'm here for it
The canvas texture makes it look like the wallpaper has a 3D feel of a real canvas and it looks wonderful!!! I prefer that over it looking super smooth. Definitely matches the older house vibes ❤❤
What a cool idea! I had no idea there was a company that would make wallpaper of ones art. It's fabulous.❤🌳🌳 If only I could paint.🫤
I'm not joking just earlier in the day youtube got me to the other forest mural video. What a surprise to see it was actually foreshadowing !
Omg, that mural wall-paper actually looks really good! I think the canvas texture actually makes it look more legit, like a natural painting. I was worried too it would be pixelated, but it isnt and that is a nice surprise.
My grandma used to put out raw meat, food scraps, etc. on a “crow feeder” for as long as I can remember. And they LOVED her forever! She put it in a wooden tray in their favorite tree. And literally brought their families. It can be done! Good luck, fellow lover of the crows❤️🐦⬛
Lovely Rachel ❤ you did a great job on putting this mural together.
Beautiful painting you created to make your wallpaper ❤
Pro tip is paint the wall the background color so you can't see it. The wall paper might have shrunk (that's why the wait time)
Or at least where the seams are going to be.
And pastels or paint can touch up the cut edges of the paper if there is still a trace of white left. My advice is go very lightly. Don’t try to match exactly, just blend out the white.
Thank you for bringing me comfort in the hospital away from my toddler. I truly appreciate it.
I like the canvas marks - it gives a definite "hand-painted antique mural in an 18th century French chateau" effect.
These videos just make me feel so happy. So magical
Rachel is the coolest person on the internet
WHIMSICAL AS HELL! I also really dig your murals and home projects so this was so much fun! Thanks for sharing!
Okay, but is it a painting video, if Bob Ross isn't at least mentioned once? The easel is beautiful, so is the painting!! I love the texture of canvas, so I was kinda hoping it would transfer to the wallpaper and I still loved it in the end!!! ♥
YES to more home renovation videos!! :'D
"The wall doesn't specifically identify as str8"-me too babe lol I loved it Rach, it looked like you had painted the mural on the wall again, because of the canvas texture, & it is a lovely painting done by you!!! Very impressed. The white lines are not noticeable, and the wall lights would be a brilliant idea 🙂 Forgot you had a video tonight, so i was pleasantly surprised!!! & i demand to know what the builders are in your house for even though i'm not a patreon-tellme-tellme-tellme at once!!!! lol ;-) xxxxxxx
