09.03.21 First step to set up HW's nursery

We ordered a safari themed mural for baby in Thanksgiving without knowing if we're having a boy or a girl. It is in blue and green color scheme but we thought either for a boy or girl, it is perfect! It has the cuteness for a nursery but also provides the serenity that we wanted.










Lay out the murals to get started (this looks alot harder than we expected!) We have to measure the wall and trim the paper.




Daddy P was very excited to get started then got worried that he won't do a good job - I have faith in you! Go for it!
























The paste mix requires 30 mins sit time before we can apply the paste to the mural.



After paste is applied, mural requires 10 mins "booking time" to let mural expand (when wet) and contrast (while drying.)
















It is rather hard to get the right amount of paste and to put the mural straight!! After 3 hours of measuring, trimming, and waiting, we managed to have half of the wall done.
Another half an hour later....ta da!! Hailey's nursery is ready for her new crib and dresser!! (Pete insist that we need to buy a new camera lens now so he can take a picture of the entire room :)

(here's the final picture with the new lens)
