The first room was the old upstairs bathroom at my parent's house. It needed a change and since my parents were thinking of remodeling the house, we had some fun with it. Around this time, my dad secretly enjoyed watching SpongeBob SquarePants. He would make fun of me if I watched it, but one day I found him watching an episode and laughing his head off, so began the purchasing of SpongeBob products as joke gifts for my father. This is how my family works. We are odd. So the bathroom was turned into the underwater paradise known in the cartoon world as Bikini Bottom.
My favorite part of this bathroom was after it was done, my cousins came over to the house and Andrew, who was 4 at the time and loved SpongeBob, just walked up there and sat down and stared at the decorations. We had to search the whole house for him when it was time to leave.

The other room I did was a "Grandchild's Room" at my friends parents house. Dee (my friend's mom) loves Noah's ark stuff so she wanted that to be the theme.
The fun part is there is a little cubby and a larger room. Here's the larger room:
That's Noah and a chalkboard - which I painted on the wall with chalkboard paint so it actually works - the kids can draw on the wall!
Then there's the cubby.
I think the mice are my favorite. They're just cute.

Did you draw those yourself? You're really good! I wish I could draw...my poor kid...she's so going to have to draw stuff herself.
I should say that these were drawn by me, but looking off of something for a template. I enlarged them and changed the shape/stylization/position of them.
Still, I couldn't even do THAT. Enlarge them just by looking off a template? No way. Not me! They are awesome and people are LUCKY to have you as their muralist. Is that the right word?
