Tips & Warnings

• If you are painting shapes on a wall you should only place about 4 shapes per wall. To many will take away from the simplicity of the color coordinates.

• If you don't feel comfortable painting directly on the walls You can paint canvas boards and hang them on the walls. Follow the steps for painting shapes above.
