Striped pattern mural for a girl's room

Aubrey's striped bedroom wall

My daughter is turning 2 on Valentines Day so to celebrate I painted her room to resemble the new "big girl" bedding she is getting.

I already had a white chair rail and wainscoting from when I originally painted her nursery. I really like how it looks so I decided to leave it. It also helps to break up all the pink.

I painted three of the walls pink and the fourth wall is the accent wall where I taped off various thicknesses of stripes. I left a 17" tall white stripe through the center of the wall stretching the entire length to frame in pictures I took of objects resembling the letters of her name. I didn't want the pictures to get lost in the stripes.

Her birthday is on Sunday so I will have to post an updated picture with her new bed in it for the finished look. Until then, here are the before and after pictures of her walls.
