Thanks, Lindsay! For the text, I typed it up on my computer and then printed it out. I used the leftover carbon paper from my mural kit to trace the outlines of the letters onto the mural, then I painted them in. If you don’t have carbon paper, you can rub pencil on the back of the paper and trace over it on the other side, which will transfer the letters onto another surface (a little trick I learned in architecture school). Good luck!

I am obsessed! I am doing a Beatrix Potter theme for my nursery, so I was overjoyed to find such wonderful ideas! How did you achieve the typed look of the text in your mural? Is it stenciled or freehand?

Absolutely love the way you designed the Beatrix Potter inspired nursery! We were looking for a gender neutral Peter Rabbit nursery design that would endure through the years. Well done!
