If you have a boring hallway, a Family Tree Mural<\/strong> may be just the thing to breath new life into it.\u00a0 That was certainly the case in my house.\u00a0 I recently repainted and moved some things around, and in so doing, was reminded of how my hallway lacked luster.\u00a0 So, before I tacked my photos back onto the plain wall, I went online, and found the inspiration for this swirly, whimsical tree mural.<\/p>\n

Take a look at my hallway Before and you’ll see why I was so desperate to do something:<\/p>\n

Then check out the amazing work of artist Michelle Mayden by clicking this link: http:\/\/creativelivingchicks.blogspot.com\/2014\/02\/family-tree-mural.html.\u00a0 I LOVED her mural, and since Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, I free-handed my own version of it, using a darker shade of gray on my light gray walls.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Because I kept it simple, this family tree mural<\/strong> took no time at all.\u00a0 And I was ready to start hanging photos as soon as it dried.\u00a0 I thought about spray painting all my miss-matched frames black, so they would match, but then I really liked the fact that they were all different, so I left them alone.\u00a0 I scattered the family photos around the branches, stepped back and took it all in with a smile.\u00a0 The love of a family really is life’s greatest blessing, and now that their photos are placed on this Family Tree Mural<\/strong>, they’ll know how much I cherish them.<\/p>\n
