My Father also rolled designs in many of their friend's homes. I noticed a question I thought I should answer. Someone asked about corners. What my Father did when the pattern did not repeat perfectly on the wall, was he used a piece of cardboard over that he held over the already painted portion and then rolled the roller over the cardboard and the wall to fill in the gap. I also noticed another question about painting over the design. Yes the design did show through so more than one coat may need to be applied. Hope this helps!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04183542538843765964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3009168790894665633.post-90864400323494154532013-01-14T12:56:41.767-05:002013-01-14T12:56:41.767-05:00i love the idea, but it seems like it could be a b...i love the idea, but it seems like it could be a bit difficult to get the patterns to line up. would love to give it a try though!<br /><br />Molly - http://dreamsinhd.blogspot.com/Molly {Dreams in HD}https://www.blogger.com/profile/13552692445186206832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3009168790894665633.post-47800857833234297382013-01-14T12:31:42.666-05:002013-01-14T12:31:42.666-05:00I found this company too - they seem to have even ...I found this company too - they seem to have even more patterns, just lacking the cute etsy store front :) (I haven't tried either company, but it seems SO much more appealing than stenciling which I know I'd do three repeats on and then quit because no way jose.)cdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00406284020390728464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3009168790894665633.post-42417475754237326932013-01-14T12:30:47.317-05:002013-01-14T12:30:47.317-05:00oops - forgot to paste:

In all it looks pretty awesome!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04797731088500756954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3009168790894665633.post-80286888542716265562013-01-13T23:34:01.018-05:002013-01-13T23:34:01.018-05:00Looks great.

I recall the backround base was a warm taupe and the print was done in 3 different colors,white,bluegray and an orangey beige. There were 2 men working side by side and the colors were added to the roller after the predominate white had dried.It was beautiful.I remember it was a vine with small flowers and birds, maybe butterflies(?).I'm 60 now,wonder why it took so long to get here?!dlJDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12464535786253279172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3009168790894665633.post-71255005353344108662013-01-12T09:07:59.422-05:002013-01-12T09:07:59.422-05:00That is cool!
