9. Painted Daisy Wall Mural
Love the look of a bold floral wallpaper but not the commitment? Paint it! This retro flower mural, inspired by 60s flower power, uses BEHR MARQUEE interior paint in eggshell with Wishful Green as the star, plus Cellini Gold, Dayflower and Seaside Villa. The flower stencils are cut from acrylic sheets on a cutting machine, and a projector maps the design on the wall. Spray the stencil back with repositionable adhesive, paint thin coats, wait 15 to 20 minutes and peel.
