Nojo Jungle Tales Nursery

I found this Nojo Jungle Tales nursery crib bedding set for babies that I absolutely loved and I knew that I wanted the baby's room to be decorated in the same style.

I wanted a custom look with graphics that duplicated the tab top nursery valance and appliques on the crib quilt.

To be certain that the wild animals of the nursery wall mural looked as much like the pictures and appliques on the baby's Nojo Jungle Tales crib quilt, I scanned the designs and printed color samples of the pictures of the animals on the bedding with my color copier and taped the sheets to the wall to use for my patterns.

From there I used chalk to carefully draw the outlines of the jungle animals on the on the wall. Once I got started I decided to paint palm trees in the jungle mural along with the lions, giraffes, monkeys and other critters.

Painting this jungle nursery wall mural was so much fun that I was almost sad when it was finished. But I'm thrilled with the way that the nursery turned out. I just love the way the wall mural highlights the Nojo jungle bedding set and now I can look forward to the arrival of the baby.
