Murals



I know that most of you have seen these murals on my kids' walls, but I am posting them for my artist cousin to see. We had a local lady paint these for us. Ethan's room is the fire fighter room and the inspiration came from a Little Golden Book.

Emmett's is a treasure map. Aaron's mom made a boat quilt that hung in the room, so we played off that theme. The artist made the main land form an "E" shape for Emmett. We used silly nick names for some of the other labels on the map.



After doing a fictitious map, Aaron wished that it had been one that could be used for educational purposes. So, the basement toy room got a more realistic treatment where we did the solar system.
