If you’ve been following The Mama Maven blog in the past month or two you’ve probably read about my Disney Paint project in which I shopped at Walmart for Disney Paint by Glidden and painted a wall in my kids’ room. And now comes the big reveal of how the wall painting and redecorating turned out and also a re-cap of the princess party I threw for my daughter and her friends. (Read more after the jump)
First things first, here is what my daughter’s side of the bedroom that she shares with her brother looked like before: (as you can see it’s painted yellow and is full of stickers she got for brushing her teeth as a toddler)
After painting a coat of color (“Fairest of Them All”) and a finish of glitter (“All that Glitters”), both from Disney Paint by Glidden and available only at Walmart stores, here is the result: (note: it’s pink; the purple on the bottom is just a shadow)
Here’s a close-up of the glitter finish: (the entire wall sparkles when the sun shines on it)
The Princess play date was a huge success! We had lots of beautiful princesses. Here’s the tally:
1 Aurora
1 “just a regular” princess
1 Snow White
4 Belles
Everyone oohed and ahhed at the painted wall on my daughter’s side of the room. Some of the moms were asking if the painting was easy and whether the glitter came off. Others mentioned they had read about the Disney Paint online. The moms agreed that the color we picked for the paint went well with the yellow on the other walls in the room as it is a subtle pink shade. The girls thought the wall looked cool with the glitter.
Everyone enjoyed great food: pizza bagels, fruit skewers and candy from UNREAL (check out my review of them here).
The girls had a blast making crowns:
They burned off the candy with lots of dancing to Disney songs:
Mia’s mom won a Walmart gift card. All in all, everyone had a a great time!
