Under The Sea Wall Graphics - Review No. 3

It was a really fun and easy project to do. I used a metallic paint for the ocean and it glistens with the sunlight on it. It really adds a sparkle.

My son did manage to peel off some of the stickers though. I went in after his sleep one day to discover several of the sea horses were decapitated! I was upset at first but found it really easy to stick them back on in the right place and it’s almost impossible to tell.

A tip to get a smooth line between the colours: Use masking tape to make the line then paint the lighter colour over the tape, let it dry then paint the dark paint. The lighter colour will have filled in those tiny wrinkle marks that are left when the paint bleeds under the tape. Also, the metallic paint is intentionally streaky, it helps reflect the light. I used a wide paint brush to apply it instead of a roller.

This room was decorated using an Under The Sea Wall Graphic kit.
