Hi,

I recently redid my computer room in Disney motif. I am looking to paint a cinderella's castle on one wall. Anyone know where I can get a stencil for this? Anyone done anything similar to this and if so how did it turn out?

Thanks,
Cole

I saw on Trading Spaces once where they had a transparency made of the Blue Willow Pattern then projected it on the wall and traced it out. It looked really nice.

Maybe something like that?

I think you could enlarge a coloring book page to use as a stencil.

I recently did a few scenes on the spare bedroom wall. One a Brer Rabbit Scene, another a Mulan Scene. I used transfer paper then colored them in with folkart paint.

Do you know of anyone who has an opaque projector? You put a picture or coloring book page inside and turn it on. It projects the image onto the wall, so you can sketch it. When I taught school the teachers used them all the time to make bulletin boards.
