Winnie-the-Pooh Nursery

Andrew's mom came to visit and was happy to paint a mural on our nursery wall! She said she always wanted to paint a mural in her kids' rooms but never was bold enough to decide on something and then follow through. I think she did a great job.

The base layer of the painting. She wanted it to look like a watercolor painting, as the A. A. Milne text's illustrations are.

Rachel loved watching Oma paint.

Time to lower the crib! She's only 9 months old, for goodness sake.

More characters will appear on the opposite wall at a later date.

Rachel loves it. She waves at Owl when she wakes up and points from Owl and the honeybees whenever we go into her room.
