A recent thread on HP had me scrambling to Google.com to see what I could learn. I found the neatest websites where people had painted Scripture on their walls.
I felt pretty ambitious, so I typed up a verse (Psalm 119:105) that went with my bathroom theme (lighthouses) and went into the guest bath to paint. I painted the verse on the wall next to the vanity mirror – right above the light switches.
This is what the finished product looks like. I painted the lighthouse months ago, but I added the verse today. I am very pleased with how it looks. Now I’m brainstorming to see how I can incorporate verses into the rest of the rooms in my house.
I typed it on the computer in a font I liked, and printed it onto regular paper. Then, I placed it on the wall, and traced the letters with a stylus. It worked on my bathroom wall (wallboard) but it wouldn’t work on the wood panelling that we have in the living room.
Then I painted it by hand with plain old craft paint, and compared it to the page I printed.
I have no idea what we’ll do in our new house – especially if the walls are harder than they are here! Probably use carbon paper or something…
Melody, that’s great! Did you use a stencil and regular wall point, or something different? I love it!
Ooooh, I love it!
You did a beautiful job with the lettering.

Great job! I love it!
Thanks! I’d love to see pictures of how others do theirs!
Melanie,
That is so pretty. I think I am going to do this, this weekend!
