We decided on paint colors - need help!

The New Mrs.The New Mrs.
in 3rd Trimester

Last night DH and I decided on paint colors for Ryan's nursery. Khaki walls with a dark brown border at the top. Within that border, we are going to paint guitars and stars (guitar, star, guitar, star, etc). We want to do the guitars and stars blue. Anyone know an easy way to do the blue over a dark brown? We're planning on using stencils - I'm sure I can easily find a star one but anyone know where I can find a guitar one?? Or multiple guitars? DH went off saying "how about a jackson, then star, then a strat, then star, then a les paul, then a star, etc." Haha - different kinds of guitars, gotta love DH! :)

This is the bedding set we chose:

Lambs & Ivy Rock 'N Roll Organic 4 Piece Crib Bedding Set

    Cute bedding!

    Here are some free printable stencils which you can print out and then cut out. After that you can either copy them to thicker paper or plastic and cut them out with an exacto knife. Just a thought.?

    Thank you! We do too! :)   It's the Lamb's & Ivy Rock 'n Roll Crib Bedding. I've only seen it online (googled it) and in one baby boutique (sp?) near my work.

    If I had a choice I'd do two nurseries and do the second one with your bedding!  I might think of an excuse to get some of this- maybe set up a bassinet in the man cave for Daddy time?

    Very cute!  You may find some stencils at Michaels, Hobby Lobby, or JoAnne's.  If you know someone with a Cricut Scrapbooking machine, I think you can use those to make the stencils easily!  It may work best to do white pait on the brown and then go back over it in the blue...thats my thought to cut down on number of coats.  Good luck!

    Sorry, I was no help in answering your question.  I would be a bit lazy and call some stores around you and ask if they have the stencils.
