So I got the urge to paint birds on my wall today...





Today I got this random urge to paint the wall in my study. It was pretty easy because I just recycled these stencils:


which I also used to paint my DIY swallow/Miu Miu inspired tights.

My mum liked them so much that she said she'll commission me to paint some in her house! (I was worried at first she'd have a typical parental attack and be annoyed that I'd painted stuff all over my walls. But then I remembered that luckily, my mum is awesome.)
They give the room such a lovely free, airy feeling, and they look quite pretty as well, which doesn't hurt.

I wonder what else I can do with these stencils? I think I'm going to paint some across my kitchen table...
BIRDS ON EVERYTHING!

I'm actually not joking.


Have a beautiful day!

    Wish I could do that on my walls! Too bad my walls aren't smooth, but rather, they are textured :( and my mom isn't as cool as your's... she'd have a heart attack. Paper cut outs stuck to walls = my BFF's

      well i just drew these ones onto cardboard but it was really easy, the shapes are very basic.
      google "miu miu birds" and copy the birds you like best, that's basically what I did!
