MAGIC MARKER ON THE WALLS?!!!!!

I found this on the blog Thought Patterns, love it!!!! Now I need to figure out what and where I am going to try it! Maybe the bathroom?

Marker Magic

What to do this weekend? Hmmmm, I've been thinking about getting some Sharpies and decorating our walls with some drawings - now, that's a fun and productive way to spend one's time. I've been endlessly inspired by these images...

From Anthropologie '08 catalogue

Wall6

I'm officially in love with these walls.

Wall1

I didn't think it could get better, but it does.

Wall2

Aren't these simple murals stunning?

Wall8

All photos above from '08 Anthropologie catalogue.

Then I remembered seeing photos of Charlie Kratzer's incredible basement murals on some design blog about a year ago:

All done with $10 worth of sharpies (see the full story here)

I'm more and more convinced that I should do something like this to our hall, bedroom, kitchen and any other wall I come into contact with.

Wait, don't go anywhere, I've got more...

I adore this one! From Do It Yourself site, click on their site to find the full instructions.

But, wait...

... walls designed by London artist Charlotte Mann with her magic markers...

This room just blew me off my feet.

Charlotte Mann, this is amazing!

I'm so eager to get a little (or big!) project going in our household, but before I start drawing on walls, maybe I should first check with my husband. :D

Come to think, this is an ultimate revenge on my childhood and all the times I wanted desperately to draw on my bedroom walls but was not allowed to. Fun!
