Sweet and Simple Redecorating with CozyWallArt

This fall has been a BUSY time in my little studio, making hair bows until my finger prints wear burn off.  I've found the white walled room a little stark though, isolating and uninspiring as I worked at my table facing the blank wall.  Small improvements were made - a candle, more lights, my tablet occasionally propped on the table streaming netflix for some company.

I knew there were many improvements to make, but I simply didn't have the time for a DIY creative solution and needed something simple but somewhat large to fill the empty wall space.



I was thrilled then, to be offered the opportunity to try a beautiful piece of wall art from CozyWallArt.com!  When browsing the site, I came across an image I absolutely fell in love with the Birds Resting on Ribbon Wall Decal.

With three birds sitting together, it reminded me of my own two little "birds" and me - smiling together with hearts full of love.  It also is a reminder of one of my favorite songs to sing to my kids - Way Up High by DidiPop which tells the tale of love birds who meet in the trees and start a happy family together.  So this wall decal was just perfect for us!

I thought installing the piece would be more of a challenge - but it was really SO simple!  It came with great instructions that made the process super simple.



The decal is backed with two sheets of paper backing on both sides. So first, (after lightly washing the wall with a wet rag) we lined tacked the decal to the wall using painters tape.  Using a level, we made sure that our image was straight and right where we wanted it to be.


With a larger piece of tape in the center, we removed the thicker backing between the decal and the wall on one half of our wall art.  Starting from the center and working outward, we used a credit card to press out all the bubbles and ensure the graphic stuck to the wall.  Next,we did the other half.


Finally, we removed the protective thin paper backing on the other side of the image - and that was it!  The whole process took us about 20 minutes and went off without a hitch.



I absolutely adore the end result.  While we could have chosen any color for our image, I think the red on white just looks perfect for this project.  While I think it was much easier with two people, this project could even be done alone in a pinch.  We chose the large (47" x 20") size since we had such a large open space, but with a variety of sizes, theirs bound to be the perfect size for your project!


Isn't this just adorable?  We even decided that the bird on the left must be Julie, is just excited about life with her hands in the air.  I just know this image will offer me the warmth of family and a sweet source of inspiration as I sit crafting away in my studio.
