[quote=Anonymous]OP, If you like to paint, know that painting a mural is hard work. But the painting can be done in a weekend. Research the type of paint you should use as well as what paint to buy in case you hate it and want to paint over. Get everything ready b/f hand--paints, brushes, drop cloths, painters tape, whatever supplies you need. I wouldn't expect help from your DH other than to help move furniture out. So make sure he's out and about doing something fun. Lastly, I would rent, buy, or borrow an old-fashioned projector, e.g.,: http://www.amazon.com/3M-Projector-There-projectors-1880/dp/B000067O73/ref=lp_300335_1_12/184-1261946-3378267?s=office-electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1444060622&sr=1-12 Draw out what you want to paint and project it on the wall. You can use a light pencil to trace b/f you paint which will make it easier to paint. It will make it a zillion times easier to paint accurately to scale.[/quote]
