The holiday season is upon us and Thanksgiving is right around the corner. You have decided to host Thanksgiving at your house this year so preparation is a must! The house is decorated and the food is prepped but then you notice your child has decided to create a life-sized crayon mural on your wall. You have to love the creativity, but it’s not helping your situation. Children writing on walls can be a pain, so what are a few ways you can prevent this or make this easier to deal with?

Chalkboard Paint – Chalkboard paint is great and comes in an array of colors allowing you to venture away from the normal chalkboard black. This is not only great for the child’s room, it can also be helpful in the kitchen, allowing for a space to create grocery lists. Dry erase and chalkboards are great substitutes if you don’t feel like committing to the chalkboard paint!

Wall Decals – Removable and reusable wall decals are perfect to ignite your child’s imagination while keeping your walls free of paint, crayon, markers and more. Unique and modern art is turned into removable and reusable wall stickers. They serve not only as a simple and cost-effective way to quickly decorate, but also as a cool, interactive toy. With endless sizes, colors and styles, “peel and stick art” can be re-positioned and played with over and over again. The best part? No damage to the walls! The possibilities are endless.

If you’ve found a lovable yet unwanted mural drawn on your dining room wall and elbow grease just isn’t removing it, maybe it’s a sign that it’s time for a paint refresh! At Mike’s Quality Painting, our affordable residential painters can revitalize the inside of your home with a new coat of paint and seamlessly cover up any drawings underneath.
