For the month of March, we have been hard at work creating a collaborative mural with lots of art projects added to the bigger murals. I ended up splitting everything up into three different murals.
Inspiration for this idea came from the fun and fabulous Cassie Stephens. She did something very similar and I took those ideas and created my own version. You can check out her version over here on her blog.
The three panels I made are approximately six feet tall each. I used hot glue to hold everything together and glue things down. To hang it up, I used thumb tacks because we have a wooden strip at the top of the wall that butts up to the ceiling. I used a hammer to tap the tacks into the wood because it was definitely hard to hold the mural while balanced on a ladder and still hold one tack and hammer away with the other hand...but I got it done!
Here's a look at our artwork in process! Enjoy!
Here they are after I hung them up. The last was a little crooked, but it is what it is. It's up and I am not taking it down.
